TO: Jake Paul
FROM: Reina Bejerano, Director- Learning Support Services
DATE: December 21, 2017
SUBJECT: Level II, Written Warning of Unsatisfactory Performance 
On December 1, 2017, you submitted a timesheet for the month of 
November 2017 which included 7.5 hours of unapproved overtime. The 
unapproved/unauthorized overtime totals approximately $418.53 that was 
not budgeted for any particular project in the department and it is not clear 
what work was assigned to you or completed during 3 of these 7.5 overtime 
hours. 
Submittal of unapproved overtime violates section 11.2.2 of the Classified 
Employee contract which states, “Whenever it is necessary for employees to 
work overtime as determined by the appropriate manager, such overtime 
shall be distributed as equally as is reasonable on the basis of those qualified 
employees assigned to a particular site or work station and pay shall be 
commensurate with overtime assignment.”
By becoming an active team member, you will alleviate issues and in your 
communications within the department and with me as your supervisor. We 
discussed that when you have questions about projects, work assignments, 
training you require, or other work issues you should contact me via text, 
phone, or email to clarify the issue. 
Accordingly, this incident also violates section 20.6(b) of the Classified 
Employee contract in that following our conference regarding 
communication you are demonstrating insubordinate behavior by 
performing unassigned and/or unknown tasks during unapproved overtime 
without prior approval.
Specifically, you do not comply with timelines related to tasks assigned to 
you and you consistently lack communication with me as your immediate 
supervisor regarding your understanding of the tasks assigned to you. Due to 
 this lack of communication I am unsure of what work assigned to you is 
being completed. 

Additionally, you continue to suggest and redirect work to others in the 

department without approval and/or refuse training when offered. This has 
disrupted the workflow in our department. 
 
Your conduct results and precludes the opportunity for discussion about 
alternative means of accomplishing the tasks that would not place undue 
constraints on the budget or other employees. 

To assist in correcting this conduct, I offer the following directives: 

In the future, if a project requires additional time for completion or if you 

are unsure of how to begin or complete a project, please contact me via 
email, text, or phone to discuss the situation in detail and to ​review the 
scope of the project, what alternatives might be available to complete the 
project, what training is available, and the time required to complete the 
project successfully.

Any future overtime submitted without prior approval will not be paid and 
will be considered an additional incident of insubordination. This will result 
in further disciplinary action including but not limited to a Level III Written 
Reprimand.

A copy of this letter will be placed in your personnel file after 10 days. You 
may prepare a response which will be attached to this document.
