MBE noticed that they cut me down from 8 days to 7.
That may not seem much on the scheme of things, but, my ins costs me approximately $250/mo. Therefore, approximately 1 day a week, I worked for free. Well, for my ins.
My ADON insisted I requested a couple of days off, when I did not. I get every other weekend off. And she put me in for days off before that.
Thus, a week vacation that I didn't want.
When the ADON was asked about this, because I was not the only one (one of my coworkers received at least 10 days off), we (part-timers) were told "we have to fit you in where we can around full-timers."

We have 3 full-timers. We have 6 part-timers.
We're short staffed most days.
Yet they cut hours.
