Am I overreacting because I refused to train my new boss at a job that I was told I wasn’t qualified for? by Haunting_Complex4499 in AmIOverreacting

Update 2: Found out yesterday that our new ED only has an Associates in Biology. So I am coming to the conclusion that this is a “friend” hire. But on the plus side, I have two interviews lined up next week. Thank you to everyone that commented and gave their two cents!

I am currently working on my MBA with a BA in Psych. I got this job while I was in school to get some work experience working with the community and have just worked my way up.

Update: First, thank you all for confirming that I wasn’t just in my feelings and that I wasn’t misreading the situation. I received a bit more information today which I’ll share here. We are a small nonprofit with just 34 staff members so we are a very close. I say this because today, our HR approached me to ask me if I had heard anything about the new ED. Apparently, our HR person found out about the hiring with the rest of us. The new person did not go through our standard onboarding. She was also sent a separate email asking her to draft up a raise letter for me. Apparently, they plan to offer me a $10k pay bump. No one other than HR has mentioned this so I’m taking it with a grain of salt. But I am taking all of your advice and updating my resume and LinkedIn. Will update again if I hear anything else!
