quote:dot – Is this all there was to it? A missed phone call? I don't read anything in your post that should make you think you won’t be treated fairly. Can you explain why you think this? Not calling a team member does happen occasionally and could have just been an accident. It looks like the practice was planned for 1 hr 15 minutes by the original schedule, so starting at 4pm and you arriving at 4:35pm, still gave you almost an hour of practice with the team. If you hustled as you say you did and played well, then you did your job. Instead of worrying about this one practice, give the coach the benefit of the doubt and check (politely) if he missed you on his call list due to a bad phone #. That could be all this was.
.... Yet I am still on my way to getting screwed over.
Stuff happens, relax and don't go looking for "slights" in everything. Play hard, show the coach what you can do on the field, and keep good communication going with your coach off the field.
