My friend asked me why I gave up working part-time in a Starbucks. I said to him “You must provide at least 16-20 hours per week as working time there and you also need obey the arrangement of the working time”.
Intended meaning: If I work as a part-timer in a Starbucks here, I need to work at least 16-20 hours per week. Also, I can’t decide the most suitable days for me to work. Let’s say, for example, I want to work in the weekdays because I need to teach at weekends, but if I work in a Starbuck, I might work at weekends because others might be busy at weekends and I need to substitute for him. I can’t decide the days I want to work for.
Is my italic sentence natural?
