My step-daughter is enrolled in UTI's mechanic program in California. They made a lot of lofty promises when she applied, they've broken just about every single one of those promises so far.
They have a program to help students find work. Every time she's sent for an interview, the position has already been filled. The school said that if they couldn't find her work, they would employ her in the office on campus. It's been 4 months, she still doesn't have a job, what happened to the office work she was promised?
But now there's a new housing coordinator. She is a beast. First, she showed up at the girl's door and said they had 24 hours to move. In the middle of the week, middle of the term, no explanation given. My step-daughter is not a shrieking violet, so she complained to the director that it was totally unreasonable to give them 24 hours to move out and not provide them with alternate housing, as they are required to do. They were then given a week.
Then, this week they're served with an eviction notice- 3 days to pay or get out and face legal proceedings on top. So I finally called housing services. The person I talked to at corporate assured me that it was a notice to pay, not that she would face eviction, and was quite surprised when I read the part that says if it's not paid within 3 days, she must leave the house and they will take her to court. Apparently they're not supposed to get that notice until after 20 days of non payment- not 8.
I'm trying to find out how to lay a formal complaint on this woman. How dare she treat anyone this way, but especially teenagers who are just starting out! My step-daughter is really enjoying working with the cars, and I don't know if some of the other campuses are better organized, but certainly I have been less than impressed with the California campus. I'm so tired of being lied to. Don't promise assistance if you are unable to provide the assistance you promise!
