[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your mistake was picking up the phone on your day off. Been there/done that- don't do it. I would have stated my hours several times and finished with 'let's talk when I am back at work. Bye now'. I wouldn't have engaged at that level because I would not have allowed myself to be defensive- just confused eg 'I'm sorry- I'm off today and at an appt right now' I can't tell if they are calling you in for a disciplinary/because of an issue specifically or if it is because there are work issues that need to be hammered out, but you don't sound committed to the work for various reasons; it's not a fit. If you don't need the pay- dump the job so you can enjoy holiday time before when you wanted to leave. If you need the pay, be contrite and pretend to agree/apologize and put in your notice when you like. I can tell you that they may just remove you now if they are that concerned for your communication skills, being that you work so independently and that it is health care. They have to be sure that it is remaining professional and productive- not saying that THEY are- but as the bosses, they just need to be sure YOU are- even if they are jerks.[/quote] Op here. I have a lot of anger towards my work for valid reasons. I had to wait 5 weeks for my first paycheck. They failed to tell me training would be less than my hourly rate. They expect other hourly employees to work off the clock and those employees have told me they don't mind. I have asked several times if I need to work Thanksgiving weekend and they say they don't know but later I found out from the client that they will be staying with their family the entire week and that was planned out with our program weeks ago. They knew all of this information but what to keep me in the dark. There are other things but I do not go into that. The thing that bothered me is the supervisor was trying to punish me for asking for clarification about work protocols. I feel she wants me to have a warm body and not ask for details. Since each client has different needs it's not something I can look up. I am asking for help and she doesn't want to help. The training I had lasted for a few hours and half of that time I was in a car far away from the trainer. [/quote] Op here. To clarify there were several days of training to do general stuff but I only met the client for 3 hours and that's the most important part of the job because that learning is very important. I tried for 2 weeks and they only paid $12 an hour! I also haven't been reimbursed for security clearances I was told I would be reimbursed for. [/quote] You need a new job asap. [/quote]
