1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: It's been admitted, but the court room is open. What's up, friend, 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Keyky Court podcast. Here's a case that 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: did not make the air, and of course I want 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 1: to share it with you. I need your opinions on this. 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: It says, Hey, Kiki, am I wrong for exposing my principal. 6 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: I've been a teacher for fifteen years, working in the 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: same school my entire career. I've worked countless unpaid hours 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: to help my students and fellow colleagues, and I have 9 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,319 Speaker 1: always done my best to make our schools stand out 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: in the district. After fifteen years in my role, I 11 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: expressed to my principle that I was looking for an 12 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to transition into a leadership role as a department chair. 13 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: I have all of the qualifications, and I thought I 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: had everyone's support until I got passed up for the 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: role and watched it be given to my principal's sorority sister. 16 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:54,639 Speaker 2: Instead. 17 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: We had, she said, the sorority sister who only had 18 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: three years of prior experience. 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: Yikes. 20 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: I was crushed when a board member at the district 21 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 1: office forwarded me a chain of emails that showed my 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: principle saying I wasn't ready for the role and recommending 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: her her sorority sister instead. I took a screenshot of 24 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: that email and sent it to my principal because I 25 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: wanted her to know that I saw it what she did. 26 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: Half of my colleagues said I had every right to 27 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: call her out, while others say I was wrong and 28 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: I should have just let things be. 29 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: Am I wrong. Let me tell you something, frand you 30 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 2: are not wrong. You are not wrong at all. Okay, 31 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 2: It's one thing. 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: Had the principal told you, you know, when you inquired 33 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: about the position, or even down through the interview process, 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: said hey, I don't think you're ready. Right, Sometimes you 35 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: just can't get what you want and sometimes people are 36 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: gonna look over you. 37 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: That that's life. 38 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,919 Speaker 1: But the fact that she supported you to your face, 39 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: but behind your back in emails, said that you weren't ready. 40 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: And it's not like she gave the position to someone 41 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: more qualify than you. You have fifteen years in the 42 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: building and fifteen years in the district. And if you're 43 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: you know you're a standout employee as you. 44 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: Say you are. Everybody knows that. 45 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: But instead she gave the position to someone she was 46 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: in a friend of and has only been around for 47 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: three years. I don't think you're wrong for letting the 48 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: principle know that you saw what she put in that email, 49 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: because now it gives a chance to open up the 50 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: dialogue and maybe she can tell you to your face 51 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: what she truly feels about your performance. You know, just 52 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: reading your letter, it sounds like a bunch of bullshit 53 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: to me. Like you know, it sounds like she had 54 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: a friend who came into the space, and you know, 55 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: she wanted to look out for her friend instead of 56 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: looking out for a dedicated employee who has the tools 57 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: and the credentials to earn the position. But by you 58 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: letting her know that, hey, I saw what you said. 59 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: You said, I'm not ready, let's address this, you know, 60 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: it kind of puts the ball back in her court 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: to say it to your face. And I honestly think 62 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: sometimes you have to do that with snakes, you know, 63 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: like you always say, I always say this, never let 64 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: a snake bite you twice. Once you figure out someone 65 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: is a snake, always remember that, and then you can 66 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: choose how to move from that situation. 67 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: So I don't think you're wrong at all. I mean 68 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: a lot of. 69 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: People on social media. Of course, I posted the video 70 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: on social media of the letter, and people in the 71 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: comments are like, you should have sent the email to 72 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: everybody in the district. 73 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: Now that I would have said was the wrong move. 74 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: I don't believe. I don't think you should have done that. 75 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: But just letting the principle that you've been working with 76 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: for fifteen years know, like, hey, I see that you 77 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: did not support me on this, and you know, maybe 78 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: it opens up some dialogue for you all to have 79 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: a discussion. I don't think you're wrong about that at all. 80 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: I think the principal should stand on what she said 81 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: and explain it and back it up with some credentials. 82 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: But I doubt that she could because we both probably 83 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: feel the same about this that it's a bunch of bullshit. 84 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: So you know that's my thoughts, friend, But of course 85 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: we have the jury here.
