i've been stewing over this for the past few weeks now, swinging between ''i dont want to talk about this'' and ''im so mad about this i want to shout it from the rooftops''.
a few weeks ago i suddenly received the news that i was going to be transferred out of the school im working at. there wasnt any warning signs, no hint that something might be going on, i honestly thought i was doing an okay job at work and even received feedback that i had improved and was doing consistently good work. the reason given to me was that i was a ''personality mismatch for the direction the school wants the library to head in'' because the school leaders decided they wanted a vibrant reading environment, and i guess im not chirpy and bubbly enough for that. despite the fact that i've been working on that aspect of myself and have shown marked improvement. guess i shouldnt have bothered in the first place, huh?
im furious because its so abrupt, furious that while all this is going on, they were still piling on extra unnecessary work on me, and royally pissed that they're getting a complete newbie to replace me, so i have to train them to take over for me after im transferred to another school.
i've had multiple people try to assure me that this could be a good thing, a fresh start, yadda yadda, but honestly the truth of the matter is im being kicked out, im not good enough for whatever the hell the school wants, and im going to have to adjust to an entirely new working environment.
anyway, im seriously considering just quitting in the middle of all this just to give them the finger and be spiteful. have fun finding an entirely new replacement for me, assholes. although i know this will only inconvenience them for a few months. after that i'll just be a deleted name in their company records.
oh whats the high that i was referring to in my title? my salary increased. thats all. but only because a new minimum wage law is being passed, otherwise they'd have continued severely underpaying me
