Hi Guyfawkes
This is a tricky one for a couple of reasons. You are quite right, a base room manager should stay in her room, as you are the senior member of staff in that room. However, as a senior member of staff it is really important that you are able to demonstrate your ability to be flexible and willing to help out on other rooms when needed. Your manager will not be able to book agency if there are sufficient staff in the nursery to staff all rooms by moving people around. That said however, if she is able to move you, there must be other people in your room that she can move instead, leaving you where you are. Are the other staff in your room being moved also, or is it always you ? If it is always you, this is bad manangement. Do the others make too much fuss about being moved ? If this is being bowed down to because it's too much like hard work to ask them, it is also bad management. Have you spoken to your manager to find out why it is always you that is moved ? It would be a shame to leave a job you like for this reason, but if it is making you that unhappy and you cannot resolve it then you must leave. Life is too short to be miserable at work, and if you are phoning in sick to avoid going to another room you are letting your team mates and the children down and that is unfair. Talk to your manager and find out her reasons for moving you over other people, hopefully you can resolve it.
