Ok so about 2 years ago when I was a junior in college my uncle got me a job working as a student assistant in his office in NYC. It was great I was making a really great pay compared to my other friends. I liked the job it was simple but yet fun and I loved hte people I worked with. I worked in the city office for a year but then my senior year of college I moved home to LI and asked to be transferred to the Melville office. They accomodated me thankfully.
Well I have been in this office for a year now. So 2 years with my uncles business. Now he doesn't own the business it is a state insurance fund job. I am sort of like an administrative assistant but didnt take the state test since I was still in school but was doing alot more than a normal student assistant. Well in Feb they changed me from a student assistant to a temp (I didnt care I was getting paid a $1.50 more and getting vacation time).
Well yesterday my boss calls me into his office- and tells me they are switching me back to a student assistant and am going to go back to my original pay. Now I am graduated with a BA so I told him I am not loosing my vacation time (especially since I am taking a vacation starting tomorrow!!) and I Am not willing to lose pay so I am going to look for another job!
I think he was suprised!! But I now have a college degree in Psych and am starting my Masters for education this fall so I need a job with benefits and paid time off and for the money I deserve
AM I BEING SELFISH AND CRAZY???
and if anyone has any job opening in education or administration stuff let me know!!!! OR AT HOFSTRA SINCE I AM ATTENDING MY MASTERS THERE!! haha

I think you are totally justified in your decision. Is there any way to talk to him about switching your title but keeping your benefits? It shouldn't be your problem that the company is screwing up.
Have you thought about putting your name on a sub list at your school district? You can make a ton of money that way. You should continue to be insured by your parents since you're technically still in school (my sister is and she just graduation as well but is going to Hofstra for her masters in the fall).
Good luck!
that is where I am going for my Masters as well. I am trying to take a summer course however. But that is a good idea to become a sub. However I only have a BA in psych and not teaching as of yet- that is why I need my Masters in Inital Ceritifcation of Early Childhood/Special Education. SO can I still sub??
You certainly can!
