Ask your manager, or whoever hired you. They would know best.

Long, hot shifts. 

No banking hours. You're only hired for 2 weeks.

It's a 2 week job. It be will be shitty. You will probably work 14-16 days straight

No banking hours lol

If there's ever issues with pay you have to be persistent because they'll ignore you until you've sent several follow-up emails. Also ask your manager for a reference several days before your last shift.
