Hello, [Park Supervisor]. 

I am forwarding this to you because I know you will receive a copy of it. I am not escalating. I am informing. I am here to do a job and then move on to the other parks on my path. If you wish to discuss anything, I'm more than happy to, but I feel this is an internal matter that will outlive me and thus there's really no reason for me to be involved.

Kind Regards, 
Samuel

[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.

Sam
