I feel like venting.

Hey guys.

So, venting. Let's get on with it.

[ rant ]
I have a person I work with, who has APPARENTLY been going around the corporate office and complaining about me! She was saying, "It has to be stopped!" and "I don't know what Sara was letting her group leader do, but it needs to be stopped!" She brought up how Joe came up to the center and surprised me with a Sonic drink. And on that occasion, there was ONE child left, and I was literally on my way out. Seriously? This person has replaced Sara as a site director (for now, she's just a sub). I talked to Sara about it, and she said this person is just pissed I didn't take the site manager position and now she's stuck.

I am livid. How dare she?! This woman is complaining about me at corporate, trying to make me look bad to the higher-ups, and maybe trying to lose my job? I don't know, but either way I'm seriously pissed. Maybe I shouldn't put forth effort anymore. Like, oh I don't know, signing in the kids (because I know who they are), put out the centers, and the buckets (cause the kids are used to a certain way), talk/discipline the kids (because I know how each child reacts, and how to handle each of their personalities) or talk to the parents (because they know and trust me, not so much this other woman).

For some odd reason, people think I can't take criticism. If someone has a problem with me, they need to speak to me about it, and not to someone at corporate where everyone is in ear shot. It's childish, immature and makes me feel like I'm back in high school. Seriously, this woman is at LEAST in her 50s/60s, I'm only 22 and I know you don't do that. UGH!

I had to get that off my chest. I'm considering talking to this person about it. I don't want to be bitchy, but just say "I heard you voiced some complaints about me at corporate. Would you like to discuss it with me?" and see what she says.

Thoughts?


Later Days!
