Chatting about… my ongoing battle at work…

It’s been a while since I’ve broached this subject. Mostly because for a while it seemed a big fat NOTHING was happening with what happened to me. But then the Governor’s Inauguration came and a funny thing happened. People who were gung-ho on screwing us over all began to leave their jobs.

The following is a list of people who should have overseen our wage theft through their regulatory agency who have now moved agencies:

Chairman of the Public Employment Relations Commission, recipient of multiple emails which I intend to post in short order on this site. Retired soon after Christie’s election.

One of the overseers of our program in Trenton is no longer there.

Chair of the Civil Service Commission asked to be moved to the Parole Board, although last I checked her name is still on the Civil Service Website.

Program Director for our statewide program has left.

Personnel officer who put in writing that my County doesn’t have to follow the law retired after the election, although he is still retained as a “consultant”. Which is a nice way of saying he’s getting paid to do absolutely nothing for being such a good soldier.

So… it’s gotten to the point where I am on my second meeting in less than two weeks. Twice I was called into the office of personnel and others for “disciplinary” investigations. For nothing. Have I mentioned before I’ve never been a problem? No write ups? No client complaints? That my evaluations are impeccable?

The latest? They are now saying that they can ask for medical documentation above and beyond the medical certification approved by Trenton for Family Medical Leave. I have taken about 3 days in almost 4 years for my son. Leave for him was never a problem before I whistleblew.

Once I brought up my spotless record, they seemingly backed off. And last week when I just came out and said, “Look. This meeting is based on a lie. It’s obvious you all are looking for something, anything, to put in my personnel file. Because you have nothing. I’ve been a model employee and you’re trying to make me something I’m not.  I whistleblew and this is a hostile work environment. You’re frightened because people are coming. ” Suddenly that meeting ended with no actions against me taken.

My next posting will detail any government agency or group which we reached out to for help and their response or lack thereof. Some of them accept donations, so you may want to consider where you send your money. (I’m looking at you National and Local N.A.A.C.P and National Organization for Women). Those who offered help I cannot discuss until I see the result of their offer.

It’s been a trying two years for me and honestly, I don’t know why God allowed me to go through any of what I’ve gone through professionally and personally for these last two years. There seems to be no end and no benefit. And I still must serve my clients like nothing’s happening. It’s not their fault. I’ll go up a wall if I keep trying to find out why this is going on though. He’s God. He doesn’t have to do anything else. Even though He can.

And that’s what sucks.

So I get up and get dressed and get ready for another day in prayer, hoping that God backs me up against another satanic attack. In my heart I’m really looking for a good Old-Testament Smiting though. I can’t lie, when that happens to evil people I am not unhappy. I’ll pray about that later on.
