Ran into a past technician and we got to talking for a bit, mostly about what had changed since he left. I brought up like 2 concerns and then he goes and tells me one our lighting techs has been a mole, and has been leaking information out to help the butthurt tech that quit feel better by trying to get that teacher fired. I went to talk to another tech about it and we sent the teacher and email, and went into her classroom and we talked about it. I explained he has issues with the way the Stage Crew is treated, but we really aren't treated badly. Overall It was just a stressful situation and I moved on after it got taken to an admin, the 5 minutes later said admin returns and says we can't tell anyone about it. Which just left another mento in the coke. FF to open. The opener music sounds great, I said hi to my family, to my girlfriend, then went to do my job. That's where the problem started. It was constant messages and people telling me to push thisand pull that out nd do this and the music is too quiet and this and that and I just pushed it out. At the end of the show, I go to apologize to the teacher, she says it's fine and that the actors should've been louder so the mics did what they were supposed to, which made me question why mid act 2 she said I'd rather go deaf than not hear them, push them out of the towers. So I disable the monitors and push it out of our towers full blast and she's still telling me to push it when I can't anymore. So 5 people are actively telling me how to do my job and this other BS and I was about to lose it. I ended up slamming my fist down on the counter to get them off of the back seat driver circle, shut off my equipment, and left, drove to the temple, and screamed and came close to crying on and off for 30 minutes while shaking nonstop. It's been like this since I became a department head for our tech crew. All that blame goes here. I'm just tired of it. if the rest of the nights are like this I might have an aneurism, like on ZEUS dude nothing I do works anymore. To make the longer part of a much longer story short, I think I'm quitting my tech crew after our show is done. I don't want to have to deal with it anymore. I don't think. I could do it. Now that's where I end, because the sleeping meds I took are working by some miracle and my computer now looks like it's melting and the characters are waving on the screen. I will likely finish this post tomorrow, so call this pt 1 G' night *hug* *hug* Edited March 21, 2025 by Spark of Hope

It’s horrible when you have a million other people trying to tell you how to do your job, especially when you’re a leader. Everyone always comes to you with their own problems, and then seems disappointed when you aren’t perfect in return. But you don’t have to be perfect. And your reaction here is entirely justified. I’m sorry things got so bad that it had to ruin this experience for you. It’s up to you to decide whether to resign or not, but I would think about talking to them about the situation. But that doesn’t have to be now. Right now, you just need a break. You deserve it.

So, today was an interesting day. I got to the show and everything was fine, and then we got to intermission. I had to yell over our god mic to get kids off the stage, as our teacher said to. Then someone gets on comms and asks me why I did it, I said the teacher said to, and I listen to her. Then he goes, “Well you were supposed to have a sound technician at every rehersal, and you didn’t. So that’s a lie.” And I just lost my mind. I’m actively not talking to him, and then I learn he disappeared for most of Act 2 and I was pissed. And he dissapeared and took one of the female techs with him and I’m like NUH UH. YOU CAN’T GET MAD AT ME THEN DISSAPEAR. LIKE COME ON DUDE. anyways, that’s my rant. Sorry for doing this twice in a row, I’m just like losing my mind rn
