still working @ Yellowstone; mentally ready to leave. The situation/schedule improved, no more overtime. However, I’m “over” customer service. They’ve offered to let me work less—35 hrs/week. That’ll help. I’ll stay IF they let me take a 5 day, Naturalist seminar in late Sept, for free. The class usually costs +$1,300, but I was promised when I was hired.
They’ve turned me down for earlier sessions, saying we were short handed, but I said I’d leave if I couldn’t have it. They’ve accepted my registration, listed the days of the seminar as off work. We’ll see. Not sure they’ll follow through. If I’m able to take it, I’ll be a certified Yellowstone Master Naturalist.
(I’m already an Indiana Master Naturalist/Master Gardener.)
In the meantime, they’ve brought back a guy from early in the summer, who will replace the manager who quit in July. He’s ok, I think. He started yesterday.
