On one particular case, I reached out and asked the Hearing Office Director (HOD), if she was sure that they wanted to suspend an employee for 3 days. When Ms. Bellinger learned of this, she instructed the HOD to disregard everything I said. After this had happened, I told Ms. Bellinger that that was unprofessional; she replied, “I was unprofessional.” This all happened around February of 2016, shortly after I was hired. I showed this to my peers (Donald Hammond, Glenn Fields, Tim Hicks, and Carmen Morales), and I also showed it to another supervisor within ODAR Ms. Janice Hargrave.
