How exciting, finally I am able to change my font, the video option is cool to, but right now I am not feeling it. I just returned from a meeting with the boss, and I am a bit freaked out. I had requested a schedule change on fridays, and the head intern also requested that I be changed because my abilities are being wasted with the current schedule, and so today, not only did he give the schedule change to someone else, he badgered me until I left the meeting early, he kept poking at me, knowing I was upset about the schedule, and taking delight in it, he just kept pushing and pushing. But I have tools today, instead of saying a bunch of stuff or doing something I would later regret I excused myself from the situation, which is kick ass, in terms of how I handle day to day pressure, and life on life terms or whatever, but in terms of my internship: What the hell? I know that Paul(the head intern) and Steven(the boss) had a fight concerning my schedule, but I had nothing to do with it, there was no reason for me to be treated that way. So I called the other boss, Wanda and told her I wouldn't be coming to the meeting after the first meeting and that I wanted to file a grievance, which is the professional path to take, and I am going to wait and think it over before I rush to it, that way my statement isn't full of anger and emotion, but rather a factual account of what took place, and it happened in front of the other interns, so unless I am a complete idiot I feel that they will all collaborate my story. Steven had also made a comment about when he was gone, like he was going to quit or get fired, and the more I think about it the more passive aggressive his behavior was. But what can I do? I was not going to say anything at all, just accept that he decided not to change my schedule, and move on. though the reason for not changing my schedule didn't seem to stop him from changing another intern's schedule. So his behavior was spiteful, any way I look at it. But I was gong to suck it up and move on, he just wouldn't leave it alone, he enjoyed just a little to much at my expense, so now I am going to see what can be done about it. because it was not right. And today, I no longer allow people to mistreat me, especially when I do not have it coming. If anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it. Peace out.

I wasn't in the situation, so it's hard for me to judge. But Steven sounds like he has a chip on his shoulder, and he certainly wasn't acting professionally the way he badgered you. Instead of going to the other boss, however, I think I would have gone to Steven's boss and filed a verbal complaint with her/him. Unless Steven is bothering you constantly, I think I would have saved the formal grievance as Plan B. But you kept a really good head which is "kick ass" and you are not letting people walk all over you, which is "double kick ass" for lack of a more exciting term. Proud of you!
