Non Profits are *Still* trash

So in my last anti work post, I mentioned how I feel guilty for taking days off, how I'm insanely overworked and how honestly theres no growth with this job for all of the skills and hours I've worked. Well guess who got written up. I've stressed that I don't have enough support, that I'm over worked and It feels like I can't have any of my coworkers help out when I need it. For context I work in a non profit stationed in a high school, we run clubs and provide additional support to the teachers of the school, so I do the work of the teacher, but don't get the benefits or protection of a union. So, knowing all this, I have been written up yesterday for 'not being able to focus in on my work', never mind the fact that I'm doing the work of 3 people…

So, knowing all this, I have been written up yesterday for 'not being able to focus in on my work', never mind the fact that I'm doing the work of 3 people already and I'm barely being paid for one job. I hate the fact I feel guilty for not being able to do all the work they're asking me to do, but I also feel angry because I don't have the support I need, and of course things will fall by the wayside.

It feels like the writing is on the wall, and I need to leave as soon as possible, but I also feel that I need to stay because I want to see these kids grow.
