I don't want to sound callous in your situation, but it just sounds really close to what I went through. Sometimes management will work with individuals if they're willing to work through the EAP.

Take care of yourself!

thank you rhonda. i appreciate your sharing i am sure many can benefit from your knowledge.

i am far away, different system i am afraid, but we too have analogous types of programs, and i will try to get informed in the way of what sort of labor protection there is for this... 'fraid not much unless you're a permanent hire, i'm body rented consult just at 3 months there, discontinuous work history before that for extended period.


i am going to look into teaching again.

you didn' sound callous
