Cut hourage

Anyone else's hours being drastically cut during Holidays? Idk if it's the school I work at who degraded our contracts but last year during break we cleaned vents and changed light bulbs ect. This year it seems we were off most of the fall break and didn't even touch on light bulbs. In fact a night manager has been messing with that. This winter break we might even be working at all. Last year we worked half shifts every day which kinda softens the financial blow we take. Idk or maybe the economy is hitting hard.
