     That’s wage theft. Funny how cops protect the thieves, not employees.

     So, update.

     My partner sent EduStaff a screenshot of the pay code and assignment EduStaff switched without informing my partner.

     The screenshot was of a past assignment from December that was the same classroom, same school, and had the $200 pay code, but was switched to a lower pay code in June AFTER my partner had already accepted the assignment, which was deceptive on EduStaff's part, because my partner had they known, would've cancelled that assignment and chose the one with the $200 pay code.

     This is EduStaff's 'defense' 🙃

     They said my partner was "overpaid"

     Apparently, temp agencies can go back in and switch things up to support their gaslighting of substitute teachers who keep receipts

     AnthonyJK-Admin repeated this.

     This is an email my partner wrote back to EduStaff.

     My partner originally wrote to EduStaff when they finally got paid but saw they were paid $100 less for that day.
     Apparently partner's position and pay code was secretly changed by EduStaff without their knowing about it.

     I want to chime in that currently in Michigan, substitute teachers can make up to $100-$200 per day through EduStaff (temp agency), however they do not get to unionize, no insurance or sick days, or benefits, plus they can can reassigned last minute. My partner had $100 worth of labor stolen from their last paycheck too, and a labyrinthine process to complain about it. The requirements are a bachelor's degree (though many from other fields with Masters degrees work as subs).

     We've gotten into it with 'professional' certified teachers about who's more "valueable" (them or subs), but, I think it's divisive thinking. Both types of educators need to be on the same team and boost eachother up.
