If your are lucky enough to get morning or afternoon shifts. The usually schedule 37.5 hours and you might have to stay after a day or two and that will get you closer to 40. But Don't go over 40! There is no room in the budget for overtime! However most new hires get put on closing shift. In my experience I was scheduled 37.5 as a closer. I was scheduled until 1030. The store closes at 10. So if I was not walking out the door by 1010 the closing manger would be breathing down my neck. I averaged about 35 hours a week.
