Past History with a Coach

In a way, that's liberating. I work for about a dozen and I didn't work for one of those assignors for about 5-6 years. No big deal, I have many others to fill my schedule.

It's when you have ONE guy you have to please that you're really stuck.

Back in the 90s, I ejected my baseball assignor from a middle school game he was coaching. When he threatened my baseball schedule, I reported him to the association board and threatened to report him to the state (who could relieve him of his duties). I worked a great schedule the next season.

It's when you have one person you have to please, and that person will not support you...that's when you are really stuck. Speaking from experience here - working for one person who has control over everything and consistently takes the coach's side of an issue regardless of what film shows - that is a recipe for disaster.

Let it go, find your happy place, there is a new assignor. I am sure they would welcome you back
