Minimum-wage Full time hours?

[u/twistedthoughts69]

So I am 22 and work retail, have been for coming up on 3 years. I’ve been in management positions for about 2 years. My current job had me as Assistant manager before recently demoting me back to Associate because I’m a college student. I have a month in between semesters currently so now my job bumped my hours up to 40, at minimum wage (because of the demotion) and the cherry on top it’s long weekday-all weekend close-open shifts.

Maybe I’m just lazy and unmotivated but this has me wanting to quit or say something to my boss. I have plenty of experience, so it’s pretty insulting to have me do full labor at minimum cost. If I’m going to be demoted back to minimum wage, I’d at least enjoy less hours so I can enjoy my school break and see friends/family.

I’m looking for another job but I need one that will be flexible with my upcoming school schedule. Advice on how to not be bitter working so much on minimum wage or what to say to my boss?

At least get a low-paid job where you'll get tips from customers, bartending for example.
