When I signed my contract to work with my new employer (we will say employer #1), I was working with another company (we'll call them employer #2) within a certain mile radius of employer #1. After discussing things, employer #1 let it go and from my understanding we were in an agreement that I would keep my few hours at my second place of employment (I'm not working full time for either).
So far things have gone smoothly. However, it has come to light that Employer #1 want's to start taking 30% of my hourly pay for extra hours I may be picking up (which involves questions for another part of the forum). After stating that I feel my expertise is being taken advantage of, I recieved an email from said employer (#1) stating that I should not consider taking on these extra hours after all considering I "have a second place of work and they do not like to promote instructors who also teach somewhere else".
I couldn't help but feel that was very manipulative and that they are purposely holding my place of second employment over my head. Whether it's to get me to quit or to get me to subject to the 30% they wish to take. I'm curious as to whether this is considered harassment and if not what it would fall under.
Thanks!
