Stupid people
Well, so I lost my job at the YMCA. Not that I'm surprised, really, I expected it when I got suspended a week and a half ago. But honestly? Tell me how much sense this makes. They fired for me a no call, no show, except that I CALLED IN!!!! They told me that because I couldn't find anyone to cover the shift, it was my responsibility....so I guess that means you can't call in sick anymore, because another girl, Shelby, was trying to call in tonight because she was sick and they told her that she either had to find someone to cover her shift or get fired for no call no show. And then Jennifer had to call and tell Melissa last week that she might be late or might not show up at all because her daughter was sick and she got written up for a no call, no show. Something tells me that Brianna, now that she is the new KidZone director, is just trying to get rid of everyone back there. I bet anything that Shauna will be the next person to be 'discharged' as they told me. But I told them flat out that their measley three days a week, three and a half a week weren't doing anything to help me at all and they just looked at me and said okay, fine. Then I asked for documentation of everything I've been accused of in the last couple of weeks (refusing to change diapers, which is absolutely absurd because I've never refused to change diapers the entire time I've been there, not being engaged with kids, which honestly, I'm not sure how much more engaged you can be by being outside and pushing them on swings or helping them with monkey bars for three hours, and some shit that happened in the baby zone when mind you, I've never worked the baby zone, one time the entire time I was there). Since michigan is an at-will employment state, they needed a reason to fire me, and that was a very unlawful no call, no show, especially when Melanie ADMITTED that she had the voice mail on her phone of me calling in and then proceeded to write me up anyway.
Gah, bitches, I tell you. They must have rewritten the entire handbook, because as I explained to them (and they still didn't listen) when Tara trained me and went over the handbook with me, she told me that the call in procedure was that if you absolutely couldn't make in, you had to try to call everyone on the list, and if nobody could cover your shift, then you could call in, and that's exactly what I did. And now apparently it's a no call, no show. Ugh. I hope that Shauna, Jennifer and Shelby don't lose their jobs, but if they do, then they can join me in my lawsuit against the YMCA. Because I am not going to let this go.
On the bright side, I might have a job at Golden Corral. The guy called me yesterday for a second interview and it sounded pretty promising, so maybe I'll hear from before too long. I really don't want to quit Taekwondo now that I've just gotten started....it'd be stupid to quit at yellow stripe...and I want to keep taking it under Master Kilroy, but I'm not sure I really want to step foot back in that YMCA again.
And with that....the YMCA can kiss my ass!!! And Brianna and Molly can as well!!!!
