For anyone working more than one job, how do you even schedule it? I don’t remember part time jobs as flexible or of even caring about your availability.

My teen has his first job working part time for a discount retailer. They’ve been scheduling him 20 hours per week: clearly not enough to live on if he weren’t home. Four hour shifts times five days, but he’s on different shifts and different days. When he asked for a specific three hour period on two days not working, they didn’t give him hours that week. Now we’re planning a vacation but wonder if they’ll stop giving him hours if he takes a week off. I don’t see how an adult could make this work

That's absolutely intentional. They won't allow you to have more than one job, because they want you dependent on the shit job that they are deining to give you.
