Took a seasonal hospitality job and was told there might be permanent hours after. Now the season is ending and no one has mentioned it. How do you bring this up without sounding pushy?

Don't worry about being pushy! It's important to let people know that you're interested in permanent work. Tell your manager, or the HR people, you'd like to stick around. If you don't speak up, people might just assume you only wanted to work during the holidays.

I don’t wanna be pushy but it’s just difficult to word things that don’t sound pushy!

Do it now. Seriously, do not wait, and do not worry about sounding pushy. They're not going to think badly of you for wanting to know if you're going to have a job in a week or two. If anything, it'll work in your favor by showing you're enthusiastic about the potential of staying on.

Yeah maybe I should just go for it instead!

Do just that. Speak to your manager about a possible permanent position after the season. Express your interest and it will convey enthusiasm and not being pushy. Go for it!

You’re right I think, pushy is a little better than not!

I would ask my immediate supervisor about my performance feedback and ask if they feel they would want to keep me past the season

I’ve been working for a small investment firm for about a year and am having some issues with my boss. We have a weekly check-in but he’s ALWAYS 2-3 hours late, or skips the meeting altogether without warning. He also never replies to any of the emails I send. I already spoke with him about these issues, but things haven’t really changed. I really like the work I do but I’m starting to feel frustrated about the situation. Any advice? Or anyone else in a similar situation?
