Interoffice Communication Report

I am writing this interoffice communication pursuant to your instructions. During our conversation of today’s date, in which myself, you, and M. Barton, QCC were present, I told you about several situations that have occurred in the past few months on Building 1. The nature of my complaints focus on the unprofessional and unnecessary bullying behavior that my immediate supervisor C. Graves, has directed towards me. This verbal harassment has been occurring over the past six months or so, and it has gotten progressively worse in the past month. It has escalated to the point where I feel compelled to speak out, this is why I brought it to your attention two weeks ago. During that conversation, I relayed two specific events that had occurred

The latest incident occurred during the weekly treatment team meeting on Building 1, during the meeting Mr. Graves told to me that I needed to write a special judge’s report, this was to advise the judge that a former offender (discharged a day or two prior), assigned to my caseload, had committed a cardinal rule violation just prior to his release. The allegation was that the offender had engaged in traffick and trading, he had given a peer a hair care product. When I asked Graves for the details and documentation for my file about the incident so would have the facts, he became visibly upset and asked me why was I questioning his authority and I was calling him a liar and why don’t I just take his word. I reiterated that I needed proper documentation for the report, he then started saying something about stepping down from the senior position, it wasn’t worth the grief or money, he was tired of getting his butt chewed at the management meeting, etc. I then said if he was directly ordering me to write the report, I would follow his directive, he said you do whatever you want to do. He then left the meeting abruptly, without any explanation or directions, he was mumbling something unintelligible under

Later in the same meeting he began talking about overdue KSA assignments for interns, he said it was an intern’s responsibility to spend their own unpaid off to complete issued assignments. I interjected that during the hourly KSA weekly class that it might be more feasible to allot a portion of the hour for assignments to be completed. He again become upset, and went on a verbal tirade about how he had spent hours of his own time educating himself, then he began berating and belittling me personally, he made disparaging remarks about my lack of interest and efforts to better myself professionally. I felt insulted and was publicly humiliated in the presence of my peers. At this point I said he was inappropriate and that Mr. Holman needed to be summoned to the meeting. I picked up the phone and dialed your extension, there was no answer. I then announced to the group that I was going to the picket to ask security to radio you, they made two attempts with no response. I then asked them to radio Ms. Stringer, they did so with no response, security then requested any unit with a visual on either or you to respond, no response. I returned to the treatment team meeting still in progress. The meeting continued
