Update: So my boss's boss calls me at 5:56pm and tells me that my intern this past year, was applying for this position and she got another position as a VISTA and decided to decline because she wanted to work for my agency. Come to find out my intern calls the state specialist and tells the state specialist that she will be taking my position. The state specialist didn't know what she was talking about so the state specialist calls Ms. So and So.Ms.So and So calls my boss's boss and they both talk. Ms. So and So is upset with my boss's boss and tell my boss's boss that she did not know that I was not renewing my contact and took a job somewhere else. my boss's boss tell me what happens. Then she goes, they are thinking about possibly not giving you all of your educational award because you want to leave early. Then she goes I renewed you contact for another year back in April. I go, well I told you in April that I was applying for this job, and I kept you afloat, I am 99% positive of that. Then she goes you are 99% positive in smart little attitude then goes into this big uproar and tells me that I made a commitment for one year of service. And I go I did not know it would be a problem if I left one month in advance. I need my educational award. So if I have to I will. But I felt like I did everything right I kept you informed the first week of April about this job. The new job contacted me at the end of March about applying. I did not tell my current job until the first week of April about the interview I wanted everyone to know about what I was doing. Heck I even blogged about my journey of the interview. So when my boss's boss tells me that I did not inform her until May, I am like this is some bull ish. I told her. No, I am 99% possible that I told you in April that I was applying for this job and each time I made it to another round.
I told you in MAY that I got the job, because that is when I got the job. She then goes, you did not tell me until May. Then goes they are mad at you. I go why are they mad at me. They are mad at me for wanting to leave one month before my term. If I cant leave in July, I have no problem staying until my term ends in August. But I am not going to lie, I want to leave when the actual job starts.My boss's boss goes they are wanting to know why you want to leave your term early because you committed and promise to serve for one year. So I go. Ok, I have no problem with serving for a year, technology I am serving for another year it just wont be with this agency, I am not mad at anyone. I am not understanding why this is my fault. Then she goes well I try to help you out and in the end we end up losing our VISTA spot. I go I do not want y'all to lose y'all VISTA spot that is why I told you in April that I was applying for another job. I did not ask to be renewed for another year. Then she gets mad and goes well I will see tomorrow at work. Then I go, no before we get off this phone we need to settle this. did I or did I not tell you that I was applying for a new job in April? Did I or did i not not tell you in May that I got the job. Did you not tell me not to Tell Ms.So and SO that I got a new job. Did I not tell you to contact State office three different times. Did I not tell you that I wanted to leave early. Did I not tell you that if I could not leave early, I have no problem starting this position in August rather than July.I have no problem with this job. But how is it my fault when I kept you abreast of everything. It is not my fault that you decided to contact Ms. So and So in June. And I had no idea that my former intern called state office asking about replacing me, when I start my new job in St.Louis, I did not tell her to do that, I told her to talk to you. My boss's boss goes well she told me she was interested in your position since she knew you were leaving but I did not know she called state office. Ok, so why are you mad at me I told her that's something you need to talk to my former intern about. She completely brushes off all the statements that I made and asked her to answer. She goes well you need to tell Ms. So and So that you did not tell me until May that you got the job and that you were even apply for a job, basically lie to cover her tail. Then my boss's boss goes well i just don't care, I am done.. You can talk to Ms. So and So tomorrow and tell her that you did not tell me until May that you got the job. I go well I will call her in the morning and talk to her and tell her what happened and also if I have to stay until August I will and I will tell her that I had no idea that my former intern had called state office.
I call one of my girlfriends who are older and she told me to call Ms. So and So tomorrow and tell her the truth. Now granted I am a VISTA, they may believe My boss's boss over me. One of girlfriends told me to create a mini timeline of events and tell Ms. So and So what happens. She also told me say I do not want to burn any bridges and throw anyone under bus , but I kept everyone informed and why should I get in trouble for something I thought I was doing correctly. My girlfriend stated that she believe that my boss's boss is trying to save her rear. And that is what I am going to do. I am going to be truthful, because I really did nothing wrong. Well pray for me world that this all works out for me....
