Can i ask a job to reschedule my orientation?

Published

I accepted two job offers at the same time and am in a pickle. One is a part time office job and another is a per diem job. I am suppose to train for the office for a few weeks. The guy called from the officeand asked me if I had another job and when I would be available and I stupidly said no i did not have another job because I didn't think it wouldn't look good if I told them I did when I hadn't even started there. My problem is that my orientation for the per diem job is scheduled for a few days during the time I should be training at the office. I am suppose to meet w someone for the office job and was considering asking if I could have those few days off but that I am still available to work whatever they need me for the schedule. I don't think rescheduling the orientation for the per diem job because it is for all new hires.. But I could be wrong. Anyone have any experience with something like this ?? Please help.

I think you screwed the goose by telling your office job you didn't have another job (?!) so now asking them for time off during training will not go over well...
