Note: This is a little long, so sorry :/
I work for an after school based program in the L.A. region. I worked alongside 4 other program leaders. The time I spent working there, I have always felt that my boss, or site coordinator had played favorites and tried to make small talk with me so I wouldn't notice. She had given numerous opportunities to my other co-workers, but not me. I was the youngest out of all of us. She always seemed so happy talking to the other program leader, but when she talked to me, it was just to give directions on the lesson plan. I took less days off than any of the other program leaders and did EVERYTHING I was asked, if not, better! I had absolutely no complaints from the children or their families. I even had kids wanting to switch into my classroom. In my opinion, I felt that she did not like me because mostly all of the kids loved me and would have chosen me over her. At one point, she even banned some of the kids from coming into my classroom for no reason. Now, as we were having training this week, I get pulled aside and told that a woman from the HR office had been trying to contact me and that I should go and call her asap. I call the woman, and she tells me that there was a "mix up" in my document for this coming school year. She said that someone gave her the message that I wanted to be a sub this year, which was 100% wrong because I specifically remember what I put down. The woman also said that because of the mix up, it would have worked out because they are only going to have 4 program leaders at every site. If that's true, what will happen to every other site with 5 or 6 program leaders? A little fishy, no? So as of now, I do not have a "family", as the woman stated, and feel completely betrayed. I think this is complete BS because out of all of the program leaders, MY document became "mixed up". What should I do? I really would like to fight this so that I could stay at my job site.
