[Volunteer Services Lead],

I don’t trust you, and that’s because your actions have given me no reason to.

When I confided in you about the situation with [Park Supervisor], you escalated it instead of protecting me. Then you disappeared.

When I applied for a job here, you distanced yourself again. The moment I withdrew my application, you reappeared—spending ninety minutes talking about yourself.

When I finally opened up to you about  why I’m here, what I sacrificed to be here, and why this matters to me, you responded by trying to manage my perception instead of actually listening.

And then? You distanced yourself again.

When I warned you—privately—to prevent a repeat of the [Park Supervisor] situation, you assured me [Park Ranger 1] would train me. That didn’t happen.

At every critical moment, you have failed to act with integrity.
At every opportunity to lead, you have instead chosen avoidance.

I will continue to do my job professionally for the next month.
You will ensure that my contributions are recognized appropriately in your system.

I will not allow the dysfunction here to interfere with my larger trajectory.
If there is any pushback on this, understand that I am fully prepared for it.
