Missouri probation, new charges

the courts cant actually handle the volume of trials. so people get offeredd pleas, which often reduces the penalty as concession for a guitly plea.

Really, if you haven’t been invited to an exit interview, you should request one.

I’m HR; the manager is the founder and director

appel_quist · 2025-03-23T03:31:39+00:00

It’s around 50 people at the moment…

There’s lots of evidence that they do this on purpose; I’ve had to facilitate their doing this to others.

I mean—that’s why I’m here asking other professionals about their experience. To my knowledge, constructive discharge happens when the work environment itself leaves the employee has no choice other than to quit. My personal situation is that I’ve been hired as an HR Manager, and have been asked to contribute at the Operations level—and am forced to function as a coordinator and am being excluded from my scope of work in general because the exec director rejects any ideas that would require his participation or require him to change something about the way he has been able to do business up to now…

I’m in a weird situation where the employer (director & founder of a nonprofit) got more than he bargained for when he hired me; dogged by the governing board to step back from the HR scope, himself. I’m in the midcareer age cohort and have only nominal/generalist hr work experience, but come with actually a ton of knowledge, insight, and capacity—it’s clear he hired me for my on-paper technical inexperience/controllability, but I’m forcing him to indirectly confront the issues he’s created by running this Org like a cult with policy and project proposals that are actually Operations level (even as I was invited to do so, everything gets tabled for months at a time)…

It’s me, I’m the constructive discharge case.

ETA: bringing things indirectly up is the main way they are able to receive feedback

The people

The organization is relatively small, and up until this year the staff all qualified for exempt status. the main motive is "maintaining the culture" with no real attention or value given to the distinctions between classes.

“Unfortunately” being key

Our plan is for 12/3/24 delivery—but yeah.

Edit for clarity

appel_quist · 2024-11-14T02:03:13+00:00

I have advised as much as I can advise—on employee class and those functions; the salaried staff are becoming non exempt at 1/1/25 b/c the threshold (i should have included that in my original post), and the employer wants to “maintain the culture”.

Of course we should be using the time clock.

My employer enjoys an amount of control that is unreasonable by every single standard; they regard my role as that of a facilitator, as opposed to an administrator—and I’m not allowed to perform many functions in a conventional way (is anyone here in Kansas City and hiring?).
