A Mom's Journey: Facing Job and Car Troubles

Hello!

Single mom, hard-working and honorable.

Right now, my job has told me I will be suspended in a meeting that was to discuss the 38 onsite supervised hours they removed from my paycheck without communication. Those hours my supervisor verbally told me were approved by her; I was told this more than once.

I asked to switch supervisors because I couldn’t trust someone who has lied to my face and has taken no accountability for her communication during my training.

The supervisor does not create a professional environment. Today, when a coworker complimented my outfit, my supervisor jumped into the conversation saying, “She’s sad she could not leave the site and have people see it,” referring to me. She is very much aware of my discomfort with her and about my continuous unpaid meetings with HR and the CCO of the company.

At this meeting, the CCO stated the supervisor wasn’t being unprofessional.

At the end of the meeting, the CCO put me on suspension.

I do not usually like to accept help, but I need help. I need support to get through these times while I find other means of income.

My car is also acting up. What I mean by that is shifting is not smooth, and the engine is now muttering loudly. I’m reaching out to local resource companies trying to find grants.

So far, I’ve had to swallow a lot of rejection and face a lot of dishonest people.

My faith in humanity is in pain. I know good people exist because I exist.

I hope help finds me. Until then, I’ll keep pushing. If anyone has any means, knowledge in my situation, and advice on how to continue to help me with sharing my truth in court, I am willing.

Amen.
