What Would You Do in This Situation?
Question by Sunshineonarainyday: What would you do in this situation?
I work at a non profit. This is a coed facility and I am the women’s program manager at the facility. I manage 8 women that live at the facility while they are receiving treatment services for alcohol and drug problems.
At this facility there are also 38 men. Last year my boss got a contract that pays 2100 dollars per resident per month to live there at the facility. The majority of the residents that come under that contract are men. I rarely get a woman.
Recently I have been feeling a bit uncomfortable at my work place. You know that woman’s intuition? Well I have been feeling as if my job may be in jeopardy.
I recently went on vacation and when I came back my ladies told me that my boss told them that she has been praying on (for the past 4 months)whether she is going to keep the women’s part of the program open or if she is going to close it because it is not cost effective. She also told them that she has decided that she will not close it because it is not fair to them. I just don’t trust that though. I feel that this should have been discussed with me since I am the manager of that program. My boss is sneaky, conniving, chooses to talk behind all of her employees back instead of face to face confrontation.
I have been thinking about changing jobs because this is a very uncomfortable workplace and now I just don’t know if my job is stable at this point. What would you do in this situation. Would you confront your boss about this, would you look for another job that is more stable and rewarding? Please, any advice is welcomed. I need your input because I am scared. Thank you in advance for your answers.

I’d look for another job, and keep a low profile at your current one in the meantime.
Good luck.
