Disciple of Prayer
I would like to request prayers on helping me with my decision if I should accept the supervisor position at my job or not. I got offer the supervisor position and I have until the end of day Tuesday to respond back if I except the promotion. But I am having an issue with this promotion. You see I work in a 911 center for saving lives but 99% of the people at my job don’t care about anything. I think I am one of the most outspoken vocal personnel when it comes to people taking for granted other people’s lives calling in for help. I love saving lives but I cannot stand when I am working trying to give someone cpr over the phone or what ever the call may be and I have a employee horse playing around in the center. But yet they never get fired they can do whatever they want and get away with it. Majority of the coworkers doesn’t like people like me, and two other employees only a select few of us that cares. So everytime we bring an issue up about unprofessionalism at the work place nothing happens I am the one who either receive a letter of caution or suspended for just telling the truth. These issues has been going on for a decade in the Camp Pendleton 911 center. If your are part of the in crowd with the managers and all the supervisor you are good to go. If you keep addressing important issue that needs to be address you are the problem. We have people loose there lives due to the negligent of the employees we work with but yet they never received any written ups it’s just a slap on the wrist and on your way to continue doing what you are doing. So now since the majority of experience dispatchers have left we are so short manning and under staff with people without any experience marines are constantly rotate in our center, if you have a dui or people the commands don’t want around they shove them into our 911 center out of mind out of site. I was offer this position before I was detailed into supervisor because I’m one of the few experienced dispatcher that we have as well I turned it down twice I see the ugliness of management and realize they don’t care about anyone but themselves. We have supervisors sleeping on duty all shift but it’s ok you can sleep. They never get into trouble because you are part of the click at work. So now I’m offer the position again for the 3rd time, I am hesitant to take the position because after sending an email up my chain of command about unprofessionalism and Hostility at the work place. Due to the fact I was told to cover a shift which I did I corrected and directed new employees who disappear from work 2 to 3 hours at a time but still get paid for the full 12hrs. U can walk off the job without a single word to anyone you still don’t get into trouble. U can watch tv all day at work and miss radio traffic it’s okay, you can paint your fingernails and coloring books it’s okay. They can ignore a call for help it’s okay. But holding people accountable like what I do on my shift since I’m the senior dispatcher on my shift my entire crew that works with me on my shift respect me and listen do the job and we enjoy and have fun saving life’s we don’t delay on any call for service but when I am covering shifts people get upset because they don’t want to work and I’m interrupting the norm on their shift. They file false allegations of me being u professional and than gang up on backing up the lies against me. But I know and believe in honesty that God see’s everything. I have their supervisors tell me I’m toxic and I’m hostile. Even though their employee cursed at me in my face while there supervisor stood their and did nothing. All I ask was hey you train fire with the supervisor I got curse out and receive a letter of caution. I email management in regards to the incident and the response I received was devastating the response from a Lt. Colonel was my eyes and head hurts. That was it nothing else. I realize at that moment wow no one care about not only is the employees but the communities lives we serve as well as units fire fighters and police that we dispatch. So now I am offer the supervisor spot I do want to take it and just focus on making a good change for the better. And making sure that I train all my employees the same way. And make sure my shift is on point. But I am also fearing the fact that they can easily fire me since now I don’t have union protection, since I’m management now if and when I accept the position. I also have have a lots of enemies at work. The kind that smile in your face and stab you in the back. I have a lot of enemies because I’m too honest and I address issues That I know it’s not right fair or just. That’s why I have enemies, I even have people filing false reports and complaints against me and lies about me and I got written up for it received a letter of caution or else suspended again for always telling the truth. Everyone who were honest and work hard to make Camp Pendleton dispatch center great are almost gone. They left because the devil brew well at work. Their is only 2 of us left still Trying to fight.but do believe and know in my heart no one in greater than God. And their is no weapons form against me shall prosper. Even if I’m up against my manager and all his favorites who don’t like that I speak the truth and hold everyone accountable. Please pray that I do make the right decision if it’s worth to take this position or not. It’s more money to feed my family but it’s not worth my misery. Asking for prayers. And also prayers for protection from my enemies at work who work to get me into trouble. That I only need to speak when it’s wise. And God allows me to speak.
