I went one step further, I called the Oklahoma State Dept. Of Corrections and made a complaint as well as sent a letter. I really want to convey the message that we all have a standard of behavior and must mantain it when we are working with others, especially if you are working with inmates.

They said that the Captain is on vacation till the 8th of Jan. I should be hearing something by then. I think it is deplorable for a person in a position of responsibility for inmates, heck people in general to act this way. You know me, I always try to do the right thing, even if it is all wrong.

Actually Jackie, I surprised myself. Hee Hee I am usually very non confrontational. I usually consider the source and go on. Now I am not saying that I wouldn't have cursed under my breath and went and found another parking space. But I was tired, had the girls in the car with me. She was driving a state vehicle, she was suppose to be in a position of responsibility. I don't know, I just reacted in a way that I thought was appropriate.

I pulled up in front of the last stop and only parallel parking there. I saw a space, I pulled up to the car in front to

parallel park as you are suppose to do.

I began to back up, and this van pulls right in my spot.

Parked crooked but they nosed me out.

They almost hit me when they did it as my bumper was in nosed in so to speak. I looked in the rear view mirror at the driver and

she was laughing her head off as too the van full of people with her.

Oh she made a stupid mistake, as she was a C.O. with a van full of inmates, driving a state

vehicle. I am a stickler for

presenting yourself as a role model.

Ya know I probably would have just found another spot, and while

cursing under my breath would have done my job and went on. But dang it, this was a corrections officer, and

she has a obligation to set forth a standard of behavior to those inmates (all

the inmates were trustees, trustees usually are slated for release soon. They get trustee status because of good behavior

in prison or jail.

Okay my problem was not her stealing the parking space (although I was

doing what was legal and parking the correct way.

(by the way I love to parallel park because it shows my driving skills. LOL

But her reaction to doing so, her laughter at me for stealing it. Okay, so I parked around the corner, in a regular

spot. Went into the store, and asked

her her name, she gave me her name.

She then asked why. I replied well,

I am going to report your driving to your supervisor.

She smarted off to me, too bad so sad.

I just turned and walked away from her, and did my job.

About 5 people came up to me in the store and told me, that I could

give their names and phone numbers to the supervisor because they had witnessed

what she did, they heard her laughing and talking about it to the inmates and

they thought it was unethical for her to be doing that with inmates.

I took their numbers, and finished my job in the store. I acted professionally with the manager of the

store. She remarked on my calm cool

reaction to the situation. She said

I would be livid!! I said to her, no sense getting upset when you know you are

right. She is the one who acted

unprofessionally. She has a standard

to uphold. I said to the

Manager, it is up to me to act like a adult and do the right thing.

I got home called in a complaint to her supervisor, they are going to

forward the complaint to the captain.

I had Breianna and her friend in the car with me, they were like

" Wow " that was a big gal Momma, I can't believe you went up to her

and confronted her. I was like I was

so righteous mad that I didn't think about her beating me up. I just knew that she acted awful and she needed to

be confronted about her behavior. I

told them you need to stand up to bullies, they come in all forms and fashions.

Love

Janet

Well I for one am very glad you did what you did! YOU are right, she was in a position of authority and should have acted more professionally, and stealing a parking place is not professional at all! I WOULD have done the SAME THING! I didnt used to have red hair for nothing hon... I still have the temper to go with it! We are ALL proud of you! love ya lady! jaxJanet <doc_jade@...> wrote: Actually Jackie, I surprised myself. Hee Hee I am usually very non confrontational. I usually consider the source and go on. Now I am not saying that I wouldn't have cursed under my breath and went and found another parking space. But I was tired, had the girls in the car with me. She was driving a state vehicle, she was suppose to be in a position of responsibility. I don't know, I just reacted in a way that I thought was appropriate. I told my husband when he got home and he was like Wow Baby!! See what happens when you mess with a tired hepper??

I should be hearing something by then. I think it is deplorable for a person in a position of responsibility for inmates, heck people in general to act this way. You know me, I always try to do the right thing, even if it is all wrong. LOL Love Janetanne <kanga2austarnet.au> wrote: Way to go
