Will this ever change?
What's the point of putting down your availability if it's going to be consistently ignored? I've been here for a little over two months and every single week the two days I put down as not being available are on my schedule. I have to argue constantly to have it changed and I'm frankly getting tired of it. Is this how it's always going to be?

It’s how it's always going to be if you allow it to be like that. This is a common mistake that newbies make. They don't argue too much about this as they don’t want to upset the manager or to be labeled as complainers in the begining. But this is definitely the wrong path. Let your manager know that it’s important to you that you plan your time ahead, always make a small issue when this happens and hopefully with the arrival of new employees that aren’t willing to put up a fight, this will stop.
