I signed on to be a teacher for an after school program. They hired someone who replaced me in most of my classes but gave me another class. Now hired another teacher to replace me in that class. Now they have me doing backroom prep everyday. More hours and same pay, but not what I signed on to do. I usually don’t talk about my gender with cis people and let people make their assumptions. I /do/ look very trans but can be taken for cis of my assigned gender. I got cornered into multiple “pronoun conversations” and after telling them “don’t worry about it” several times I decided it was in good faith. But now I’m thinking I was put in the back after parent complaints or something. I can’t think of any other reason. I’m really frustrated, but it’s excellent pay for the area so leaving would be…
