This situation just seems like a big mess 
. I mean, think about it - the police chief gets hired after some drama 
and then suddenly someone disputes her schedule and she's out on paid leave? It's not even like this is an emergency or anything 
. And now there's all these other issues with the department... it's just a PR nightmare 
. I don't get why they wouldn't just talk to her about it and work something out, instead of making a big deal out of it 
.
u know what's wild? police chiefs can't even get a stable schedule without being dragged through the mud 
Shanee Mitchell is already dealing with anxiety and cancer, now this? it's not like she's doing anything wrong just because her contract says she can vary her hours... that's what contracts are for 
she's been thru hell already, first it's the anxiety from her previous job and now this work schedule dispute i mean, come on town officials, don't be like that! her contract is clear about varying her hours, it's not like she just decided to slack off. and what really gets me is they're putting her on paid leave without notice... that's just unfair 
and now there's talk of a lawsuit? this whole situation reeks of politics 
collingdale needs to figure out how to work with their police chief, not against them 
I mean, come on... a police chief gets placed on paid leave over a work schedule dispute? 
It's like they're trying to create a narrative about her being lazy or something. Newsflash: just because you get paid doesn't mean you can just fire someone without following proper procedure. 
It sounds like there are some major issues to be sorted out before Shanee Mitchell can even think about getting back to work. I hope her lawyer is able to get to the bottom of this and maybe, just maybe, things will get resolved soon.
The fact that she's been hospitalized for anxiety and now has a cancer diagnosis... poor woman! 
We need to be supporting her during this tough time, not adding more stress to her life. 
I hope the community rallies around her and her family, 'cause they're gonna need all the support they can get right about now. 
I think this is a total overreaction by the town officials. Shanee Mitchell's contract does allow for flexible hours, so it's not like she's breaking any rules. The real issue here is that they're trying to discredit her and make it seem like she's not capable of doing her job. 
It's just a bunch of politics as usual. I mean, what's the big deal if she takes some extra shifts or doesn't work the 8 a.m.-4 p.m. schedule all the time? It's not like she's hurting anyone. And let's be real, this is just another example of how hard it is for women in leadership positions to get respected and supported. 
The fact that she's already been hospitalized due to anxiety from working with a difficult administration says a lot about the toxic work environment she was dealing with. We should be supporting her, not attacking her.
