As a freelancer, if you work on-call, you'll work whatever hours are needed to fill in -- if someone calls in sick, or someone leaves, or if they just need extra help. Generally, you might work on-call for closing shifts, because they tend to be busier. If you freelance for an event, there are certain hours when freelancers come in. For permanent folks, in retail in general, those with more seniority usually have more say in what hours/shifts they work...but you figure, there's gotta be someone covering every shift, and more during peak hours. I don't know if that helps anyway...

I am a 25 hour employee and my schedule is never the same (days or hours). The only thing that's guaranteed is that I will have to work or Saturdays at some point.

I mostly close on Friday, Saturday & Sundays.

When I was freelance, my schedule was all over the place-anywhere from 25 hours a week to none, but when it was holiday time (Black Friday through January 1st) I was getting up to 40 hours a week & working almost every day.

I work mostly Friday evenings or Saturdays, usually from 12:00 to 8:00 pm...I don't work Sundays anymore (that's one of the reasons I left a counter position to freelance...more flexibility).

I am permanent, and i'm a 30 hour position. freelance (depending on the counter/region) work different days. our counter has freelancers every single day usually, with more on the weekends. The hours worked just depends on how many they have available n stuff
