| I’m about receive Counselling and a Written Warning regarding some “Performance Issues” from my Hospital Administration workplace. Ive been back from Maternity Leave for 6 months now only to return to what looks like a bit of a girl’s club.
For most part of the allegations, I agree with them. My performance has been a little substandard however, a couple of weeks before returning to work, I had just left my partner who was physically violent towards me.. suffice to say that I was battling a bit of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. On my second day back, I spilled all of this to my boss and at the time she was understanding. Some weeks later, she sent me a weird email after she found out that I was expressing in our office after hours (with the door closed and no one else around). I didn’t like the email so I took it up with HR who spoke to her about it and now there is an arrangement. Then, she goes on leave for 6 weeks and leaves a colleague in charge. This colleague was keeping a spreadsheet of my misdeeds to present as evidence. There is about 20 points on there, 1 was a biggie, 4 of which are painted in a light that is not the truth.
Im a professional - How do I go into this disciplinary session? Im really hurt by the less then 100% truth and as I said, there were extenuating circumstances. I am looking for another job obviously but at the same time, I want to be diplomatic but not have them think that Im a push over.
