Update: 'I've already started packing': School worker refuses to be substitute teacher, boss demands they comply

We all know that teachers these days are under a lot of pressure, and it turns out that pressure extends even to other school staffers. Like this person, for example. U/hhhhhhd5 is literally not even a teacher, and yet their boss keeps trying to get them to substitute teach for absent teachers!

Although this person was hired to do marketing, they quickly found themself having zero time to actually do that job. That's a bad sign at any job: if management has to bait and switch you into doing something else entirely, that's some bad planning on their end. I imagine the boss in this story was under a lot of pressure too. After all, what else was she supposed to do with numerous classrooms of kids with no teacher around? Still, it's no excuse for the way this person was treated. At least this marketing person/unwilling substitute teacher managed to look for another gig. And as they explained in their update post, they managed to maliciously comply with their boss on their way out the door.

After that, this contract worker was told to "Just do the important things and let the small stuff slide," but soon after, they were fired!
