open thread – June 28, 2024 — Ask a Supervisor


I noticed a fully unhinged job posting yesterday from a daycare I used to work at. They have been poisonous after I labored there, the proprietor has handed it on to their little one, and whereas they’ve elevated the pay to maintain up with the occasions, it’s nonetheless truly low. On Certainly, it has the little “urgently hiring” flag, and they’re hiring a number of candidates. At a location that has not more than 10 academics tops. So yeah, a few of these positions simply get reposted due to turnover…or perhaps they’ve bother getting folks within the first place as a result of their job adverts are so stuffed with purple flags, lol.

I’ll put up the outline, however some notes: they are saying 50% low cost on childcare, however after I labored there, they’d simply lowered it to 10% as a result of two academics had infants on the identical time, adopted by a 3rd one, they usually “couldn’t afford” the low cost. The following two pregnant workers stop earlier than/after maternity go away (unpaid in fact). Staff whose youngsters attended daycare nonetheless received shamed by the employer for having to go residence with their sick child if the child was despatched residence by the daycare, per state licensing necessities. They guilted them for his or her companions not taking the kid as a substitute.

They brag about paying for skilled improvement that’s required to work there. After I was there I steadily needed to pay.

When folks have been sick or out for different causes, we regularly received texted on the final minute to return in earlier or keep later, and when low on workers we weren’t allowed to go away the constructing throughout the one-hour lunch. Oh yeah they usually’d shorten it to a half hour typically. One particular person was with out a automotive for a very long time as a result of she merely couldn’t get to the DMV at any time it was open due to the size of the shifts and being trapped there throughout lunch.
