Soooo as you all know I got the job in Saint Louis (ring the alarm and que all the bells) I informed my coworkers, friends, my supervisor and her supervisor about everything. From beginning to the end they were informed that I was applying for a new job and no matter what I would be leaving the agency at the end of my term,. Boom. I got the job, everyone knew, I am excited and everyone was excited for me. My supervisor actually helped me out a lot during the interview process and everything. Her supervisor was a gr8 help as well. She actually in fact wrote me a letter of recommendation for graduate school, which I got in too. Special thank you and shout out goes to both of them for that. So I started applying for this job in late March. I got hired at the end of April. I informed my job and everything, that I would be leaving in July. My boss's boss was fine with me leaving early. I asked my Boss's boss was that ok if I left early, and would that effect my educational award. She said no, you are fine, you can leave early. So my new job wanted my boss's boss to get in contact with the state office and get the A ok that it was ok for me to leave early. So I say ok cool. So I tell my boss's boss that and she was suppose to get in contact with the state office. Now granted she has been busy, but I asked three times. I left her a note on her desk,
I emailed, and I even texted her. Each time she told she would do it, but it kept being pushed to the side. My new job is calling me and I am telling them, hey I asked her. My new job told me that if my current job would not let me out of my contract a whole year in advance then they would w8. It is only one month. But anyone who knows me should know that I always have a plan A and plan B. I want to leave in July. I am going to tell you why, lets say I get down there and I am just not feeling this job, I can come back in August and start graduate school. If I leave in August, I am stuck. I do not have anything to fall back on. Plus I am trying to move out of my aprtment by mid July, because my lease end July 31st. Where am I going live, for for 21 days if I have to work down here. Ugh...So I give the information to my boss's boss three times, and she she tells that she supposedly contacted the state office. Then next thing I know, she calls me today, and she goes oh I need that information again I am going to contact Ms. So and So( who is not the state specialist) about it and it is up to her. In my head I am thinking didn't I give you that last week, and 2 other times. But I give it to her. Oh rewind.... So I told my boss's boss that I want to leave in July, and she goes ok, that is fine, well don't say anything just yet Ms. So and So, (So and So is the boss that all the VISTA site are under, because I am looking for other people to replace you.) So when I go to my VISTA luncheon. Ms. So and So goes oh, I renewed you for another year.... what?!?... I am not coming back here. I told my boss's boss that I am not not coming back way back in March, its May(Well not its June)!!!. So i did not say anything. I just smiled. So now fast forward. So my boss's boss goes well I talked to Ms. So and So and she said that she renewed you for another year, and she wished you would have talked to her about it last week, or last month. That's when I got pissed. So I say in a rude way, No, no, no, I told you three times and its documented. I told you in MARCH that I did not want to come back and that I was leaving the agency either for this new job or to go back to graduate school. No one told her to re enroll me for another year. That is not my fault. Plus I told YOU that my new job wanted to know if I can leave early. Then she goes, Well Ms.SO and So said you can't go to PSO training because you have already been. Then I said, well I talked to my new job and they said I could and it has nothing to do with this current job if I go or not, because they are not paying to train me. I just want to get out of my contract a month early so that I can move and start my new job. Then she goes well will you still have the job if they say no, I say yes I will, but once again, I want to leave in July. So do not present those two offers. She then goes I will ask her and get back to you. I w8ed about 5 hours, then I was like no, I am taking matters into my own hands, I call Americorps myself, and I go over my boss's boss and Ms.So and So head and call the State Specialist myself. I try to do the whole go through the people, but this ridiculous. I left her a ,message and hopefully she will contact soon. I then called my new job and she told me that she would call the state specialist herself. She informed me that it usually does not take this long just to hear back from a state specialist. All I want is a yes or No. Sounds like some fishy stuff is going on between my boss's boss and the Ms. So and So. My boss's boss goes well I do not think I will get another VISTA slot if you leave, I wanted to say I don't care, that does not change the fact that i told you I was not coming back.But I did not say that. My boss's boss did not tell anyone about my job being open, hence why no one applied. Once again, that is not my fault.... i just go ever so nicely and say can do what you can son that I can leave in July.. She said she would. But I don't believe her that's why I w8ed 5 hours before I called the state office. I don't have time for this mess. Everything is on hold until I hear from state, I cant sign the lease on my new apartment until I know the exact date that I will be moving in.Where am I going live for for 21 days if I have to work down here. Ugh...Now after reading this don't you think this is some bull ish....
