I'm not a regular in this sub, but I have lots of trauma from childhood with my dad. I've processed it all and I'm generally able to shrug it off. This time, I feel like I just need people to help me laugh at all the stereotypes and patterns and stop letting myself take it so seriously. If I shared an e-mail from my dad with personal details hidden, is this a place that could just help me point out all the absurd statements within? Genuinely not looking for advice. It's just hard for people to see what I see if they haven't been through it.

I have a campsite through Warehouse for this coming Friday through Sunday, but I'm struggling to find any info about the campground. I stayed at Sleepy Bear last year and they had a structure to hang out during the rain and food options right there. Anyone know if there are any amenities at the campground through Warehouse? It's going to be a rainy weekend and I want to be prepared!

I'm going to keep this vague. But I am a teacher with a terrible principal. I've done all the union things and we made it to the point that the district hired a lawyer to investigate the claims. Around 5-7 of us were interviewed. Some of the big ones are: hostile work environment following union action, hostile work environment following whistleblower actions, hostile work environment after getting medical accommodations, chronic retaliatory behaviors and threats of retaliatory behaviors, and 2 actions that directly endangered children. After 3 years, there are 5 of us still standing who were there the year before this principal began. Only one is a grade-level teacher.

The investigation was a month ago and it doesn't seem like anything has changed. This process has made it clear that my principal's actions are not an anomaly and sweeping things under the rug is common. So I'm debating what I could do next. File something with the state? Leak details to the press? I'd like to avoid attaching my name to anything, but I'm not afraid of doing anything where they'll assume it's me (I've been vocal for over a year now regarding these issues). I more just want to do the best thing that will get this principal out the door.

I care deeply about public education. I don't want to stir up anything that will harm public education further. So I'd rather start with something small and continue to work my way up. If the whole place implodes, they brought this upon themselves.

I've been hosting a monthly crafty club for about a year and a half now. We are a small group of women, mostly in our 30s and 40s. If you are interested in joining us, we will be at Inner Circle Cafe in south Scottsdale this Sunday from 12:30 to 3:00. Just bring something you want to work on and hang out with us while we chat and craft. Feel free to message me with any questions!
