New Management is gonna Learn today.

My wife has been working for a daycare for 5 years now. Things had been going well, the owners always supported the employees, and even spent money on their development. They even got my wife to obtain her director's credential. But around the same time they decided to retire and sell the daycare. New owners felt to inform staff that the perks they were receiving under old management will decrease.

They asked, if my wife would allow them to use her name as the director to run the center, without her being incharge of anything. My wife was reluctant to put her name and credential out for use without having control, so she stated that she is not comfortable. Things started to go…

Things started to go downhill. New manager told my wife that she no longer needs to assist with admin duties, and needs to build trust before they would consider her for any future promotions. She informs me of these development, and asked if I (a Recruiter) would be able to assist her.

Bring in the cavalry. I gave her a stack of my business cards and told her to take them to work, and spread them to all her colleagues who are interested in getting out. I reached out to my contacts at other Daycares that I have recruited for in past, and informed them that I am interested in help a few of my clients in terrible situation, and I will do this Pro bono for the other daycares. 3 Daycares have picked me up on this opportunity. My wife is starting her new Position on July 5th, and have resumes of 6 of her colleagues that will be placed soon.

The place is going to turn into a Ghost Town. All the parents who are taking their kids there will flip, when they are made aware of the mass exodus. The parents have a Whatsapp Group and the news is going to spread like wildfire. Cant wait. (This is a story in progress, and the end is still to be written.)
