Injustice

A time that I felt injustice was at my job at cvs. About a year ago now my manager told me she wanted to make me a supervisor that means higher pay and more responsibilities. I told her yes I am interested and she told me there were a few things I needed to work on. So I worked on those things and showed her I was ready for the responsibility. She never promoted me and instead gave it to two other people and I had been there longer and knew more than both of them. 
    This made me feel like I didn’t deserve it and I knew that I did deserve it. I felt like I was not good enough for the position. When someone young, newer and did not have the knowledge for the position was given it I was ready to put my two weeks in but I couldn’t because I needed a job. 

     If this happened again I would still put my two weeks in because I have been there long enough and deserve more.

YDEV Ideology

When working with youth I should provide spaces that ask youth what they think.      We did this inventory in  my YDEV class last semester and I kept it. I am in the same ideology as last semester.

Play

     I do not have much experience as a youth worker. During this past summer I worked at a sports camp. I was a lead camp councilor and I worked along with a few junior councilors. I enjoyed working at this sports camp even though I am not an athlete by any means. The campers were ages 6 to 13. All we did was play games from soccer to dodge ball and even some ice breakers in between. They did not enjoy the ice breakers very much. According to the youth they were boring.      In the “Shall we play?”article some of the 6 p’s were used. Passion definitely because most of the campers had a passion for sports and they used that passion to teach others how to play. Also participation, everyone participated even the councilors. The last week of camp there was one camper that did not play most of the games but he participated in a different way. He watch and told the councilors if someone was cheating.       In the “Dramatic Role Play” ar...
