iinvenzione1@***.com I am the last Clinic Manager of Job Corp in this area, I did not want to write this letter of explanation,but I am doing so because in the end, the students will suffer. This is about favortism, corruption, lying at the highest levels of this job corp. I felt that when I was initially hired, I had found the job of a lifetime, a job to where I could do good. It did not take too long before I realized, the feelings I had for a better job corp were not shared by other members of job corp. Brian Fischbach wants to know why student enrollment and numbers are negative, let me share my experience. Initially, when you look at Mr. Fischbach, he comes off as a crusader for job corp, this could not be further from the truth.His personal agenda overshadows his responsibilities to job corp, in a very distasteful, bias sort of way.There exists such a pervasive lack of moral,by the students and staff a like, back stabbing, back biting all occur among the staff, the staff,I liken it to the layers of an onion. In order to be accepted you have to peel through the layers, only to find real corruption, and disapointment. I do not know if it is possibly because of my race, but I am beginning to think so.I am one of very few caucasians holding a management position. The following situations seem petty, but each situation was ultimately used against me in my termination. I have been a nurse for 36 years,and I am a professional. It is incredible what had happened,that is why I feel I need to impart my story. I was overwhelmed with the vast amount of information I had to learn, but being a veteran nurse I knew I would learn it with patience. A corporate consultant whom I conferenced with stated in short, stated to choose a willing Mentor, and they will help you as you go along. This was great advice, it surprised me how Mr. Fischbach spoke despairingly of her The idea sounded great, all the nurses in the clinic helped, but they were resistant to helping me because of reprisal against me for helping, by one person in particular, who I will talk about in length latter who was the key to my demise. I met Esmerelda in a meeting, she is the manager of the medical records department,at the time she appeared to be a willing mentor. As time went on she helped me, at the time I was not aware of the price ultimately, my job. If I feel I did something wrong, I will openly admit it, as God is my witness, no mal intent was meant. I have never owned an I phone, and its sensitive nature. I was given one to handle on call. Being on call, I would check my phone for messages at all hours of the day, in the process of fumbling for my phone in the middle of the night, I inadvertently sent out calls, often unaware of it. The sensitive nature of the phone, would redial automatically. Esmerelda was the only one I had on the memory of my phone, and she was accidently called by me numerous times. When I saw her the next day she remarked," you butt dialed me." I was not aware of this term, and never heard it before, because it shocked me to hear it and I felt it was embarrassingly crude. I explained the situation, and she was very understanding so I thought. I even went as far as saying I should take her number off my phone, but she talked me out of it. I knew doing anything of this nature would be an immediate termination, I would never do that. As I told Mr. Fischbach, I knew she was married, and I respect that. I liked her because she helped me, that is the extent of it. I did not have any idea, he would use it against me latter for his own personal gain. The problems with her do not stop there. I am probably the only staff person that sits with the students while they are eating, proof again of the polarization of staff to students pushed by Mr. Fischbach. As I sat there eating, Esmerelda,who was on Monitor duty, was looking at me smiling, I did not look at her but got up and sat with my back to her. As I changed my position, I noticed Saunja, one of the administrators across the room, studying me. At the time I felt I was being set up. After that incident, I sought out a new Mentor, because the situation, I started asking Norman, Fishbacks assistant. For about a week he was very responsive helping me, after a week I remarked jokingly, " I will try not to bother you so much " He replied abrasively, I will have to see it,to believe it" I felt from this remark it was better I did not ask him for any help, because his reply was insensitive. This man was supposed to be second in charge! I expressed from the beggining I was slow to learn on the computer but not impossible to learn. On the day of my termination, unbeknownst to Norman, I heard him remark to someone, after I had seen him, He doesn't know what in store for him, and the laugh he made was so sinister, like someone else's suffering was really funny. At this point I felt a Mentor was a bad idea, because the staff was so unreceptive. I said I would admit when I felt I did something wrong, you be the judge of this next incident.I felt so bad what happened with Esmerelda, I approached Mr Fishback, and human resources, to clarify my position.Admittingly, I stated that Esmerelda is a beautiful person, met as nothing more than a compliment, and nothing else.I further went on to say she was married, and I would never even, and had not thought of a relationship. I felt at the time I was clarifying my position. Little did I know at the time, again Fishback was going to use this against me. My person belief, is that all people are beautiful, as images of the creator. It is not something dirty, only in the mind of the receiver. What world are we living in when you can not call someone or something beautiful. Proof again of job corp management digression. During my termination, Fishback had accused me of calling Saunja beautiful, again a crime. I would not have said that but not to be impolite, I feel she is not. In the clinic, problems were shaping up. A nurse practitioner, by the name of Teufel,was resisting my authority from the beginning. I was insturmental in getting here a full time position, I strongly regretted less than 2 days latter. In front of staff she openly defied me, ridiculed me with a sarcastic humor, showing animosity. After the fourth incident, I professionally told her I do not appreciate her disrespect, she did not stop. I brought this up to Mr fishback and human resources. Like a merciful idiot, I decided to give her another chance, what a mistake. She was deliberately breaking down my authority with other clinic staff, I was very respectful of her position, but she did not feel the same with me. I felt a degree of awkwardness with her at the christmas party. Her young son who I took a liking to looked very sick, I had raised my nieces and nephews, and knew how to deal with childhood sickness. She remarked, you know when its your own child, you treat them differently. At that point I was concerned for the child. During the christmas party, she was telling Mr fishback inappropriate jokes, he was very interested and inappropriately amused, it was quite embarrassing, such favoritism. Both of them being married. In no way would I be surprised if Teufel is now the current clinic manager. She continued her attacks and disrespect of me, especially in front of staff. I approached Fishback again, he openly defended her, saying he could do nothing, interfering with the function of the clinic. In this statement, it was clear to me Fishback had a personal interest in Teufel, and job corp was a secondary concern. I knew I was not long for the job. I brought this uprate to help me. to human resources, and it was swept-ed under the rug, and eventually led to my termination. At one point they had another nurse named Nikki come from corporate to help me for three days. She spent the three days heaping more expectations on me, and often on her phone with her family, you could tell she was having family problems. She did not answering any of my questions, it was very poor. Again I said I would admit if I did something wrong. I fell asleep on Nikki a couple of times, I hate to say it because of my personal problems. On November 25,2017, less than 2 weeks into the job, my one and only blood child, my precious Son died at 23 years old. He had severe Autism, and died during a devastating seizure, he stopped breathing. I was beside my self in grief, but did not want to tell anyone at job corp because of the lack of sensitivity. Tell me, who would hide the death of your only child, thats how bad things were. I lacked sleep, because at night, in my mind I heard him calling me, and I was unable to sleep. We were very close, in retrospect I should of taken time off, but felt it would cost my job, in the end it did not really matter. I had dedicated myself to help young people, in memory of my son, but obviously it was not enough. So here's my situation, I just last my son, I had no one to help me, or even ask questions because I knew it would be helped against me. Furthermore, I had a Nurse practitioner undermining my authority and could do nothing about it. Under this stress I began missing meetings, and needed help but I knew there was none there. I would not lie to anyone about this distasteful story, I have nothing to gain, and it is not my way. My motivation is still to the students, and my dead son, who was my very life. Brian Fischbach is bad for job corp, and most of his crony staff. There is such potential for good out of this program, but painfully and truthfully, a lot of housecleaning has to be done for its survival. I was floored by the lying and insenuatins against me at my termination, i knew than and there Fishback has to go before job corp can move forward. Thank you for your attention, RN- former Manager job corp Reply Reply All Forward
