Principal called me into his office in the middle of my work day to let me know I did not get the K job I interviewed for & that he had no intention of ever considering me for the job. He told me I wasn't professional because I went for walks on my lunch time, I left the building when my contractual hours were done, I didn't use any of my spare time seeing if he needed me to sub anywhere, also encouraged me to apply for all upcoming jobs but would never get them :) How toxic is your work place?

This is why admin should be evaluated every year by their staff and district should take action based on the comments given. I’m sorry this happened to you.

oh my goodness, my heart is bleeding for you. What a toxic work environment, how are you supposed to be self-motivated if your administrator is speaking to you in such a manner. Also your lunch time and prep period is to be utilized as you wish, you are entitied to that time until otherwise written in your contract. As for the above and beyond initiative that he / she seems to be looking for, blah blah blah.. your time is your own and your choice. Stay strong ..

He’s a narcissist, that’s how they work. I’d file a complaint/grievance if you can. Upper admin needs to be aware, you never know, there may already be other complaints on file. I’d also start looking to transfer out or move to another district if that’s possible. Also, if you can join a teacher union you should.
