Say this:

"My <insert religious organization here> group meets on Saturdays, not Sundays. It's important to my faith that I attend."

Or you could say you're doing community service.

then you need to actualy discuss the terms and conditions of your employment
tell him you dont want to work 7 days a week, it's much easier and makes you
look less like a lying douche to the boss

if you want saturdays off, say so. The worst he can do is say no, and you can always quit and find another job.

Yeah no shit! I can't believe it took so many replies to get to the actual good advice.

"Sorry, I like to unwind on the weekends and I'm really not looking for any Saturday shifts."

Be a man and take ownership of your decisions. Damn hippies. :wink:

By law your only supposed to work 5 days a week, any more then that is voluntary (at least in Canada).

Just be honest and tell your boss "I dont want to let you down, but I have a lot of things to do on my own time and I cant come in on the weekends most of the time, im sorry".

From an employers eyes, if you are straight up and honest it looks much better then making up an excuse.

You willingly accepted a job where you would be working this much. You can either be a man, or shut up and take what your boss is giving you.

If you don't have the balls to ask for saturdays off, then you're going to get fucked over a LOT in the working world, so either stand up or get used to getting screwed.

Your boss can't fire you for requesting saturdays off, at least not without entitling you to unemployment. Just ask, if he says no then you can quit.

Honestly, you've got a lot to learn about working. Perchance is this one of the jobs where you were asking people how much you might be paid because you had no clue to discuss wages with the supervisor?

"I'm not working Saturdays because I feel like having a day off and getting shitty drunk while trying to bang hot chicks." Why get into elaborate plans? If he says "Too bad", then you decide if you keep like, your sweet job or like, live on the streets.

If you don't know when college begins, or aren't even able to look that information up at your local higher learning facility, then you really shouldn't pull that excuse.

Keep in mind that this guy has asked a lot of stupid questions, such as asking US about the wages of a job that HE is applying for.

I think his question is fair game to be called a stupid question... if you want saturdays off, you ask for saturdays off. You shouldn't lie to try and weasel out of working. Posters here are supposed to be adults, and adults are supposed to be responsible.
