my name is tim jones, august 19th 2011 approximately 11:30 am the intake counselor Tracy vines verbally threatened me with bodily harm stating " I could get you hurt". all this as a result of trying to ask a question. I had placed several calls and left a message and contact number to be reached with no reply. as i began to leave the building i ran into micheal fairbanks who i believe is the program director. mr fairbanks and i had a good repor in the past because i am a past graduate of the arc. mr fairbanks told me to to tell the front desk that i was his invited guest to lunch. i felt the same with ms vines also who in the past i also had a respectable repor with (it should be noted she made advances towards me when i initially entered the program which i respecfully declined which may have something to do with all this its common knowledge she flirts with the male benifitceries regularly) i was shocked to say the least when just prior to entering the buiding for lunch i saw her called her name she turned around and ignored me. she was talking to a co-worker so i figured id tag along until she was done. when she was finished i asked if she had a moment and again i was ignored. i mentioned this to mr foster head of the work program and he politly sd he would look into it. as i went back to the center to have lunch i had to pass ms vines office knocked on her open door and simply said are you upset with me she said why are you following me i could get you hurt get out my office. i said i was invited to lunch and why are you threatening me. i left her office and told her i would report it she said tell who ever you want the major mrs major or barak oboma i proceeded to the cafeteria where she followed me which at the time i didnt realize saw mr fairbanks he greeted me and when ms vines came in complaining to get out micheal fairbanks immediatly changed his tone and made a scene embarressing me in a caferteria full of staff and beneficiaries without any knowledge of what took place between ms vines and myself . i was told i had 3 seconds to get out or they would call the police i immediatly left and called the police my self off the property so i could not be accused of trespassing. i waited a while the police never showed and i eventually left. as stated i am a graduate of the arc and now as a result of this incident initiated by the unproffessional behavior of ms vines i have been wrongly band from from the center for good and any privilages ive earned. i want this investigated and feel she should be reprimanded if not relieved of her duties all together and my rights to be restored to visit the center. one last note she claimed i was drunk which was untrue and tried to use this as justification and if this were true i would never have been allowed in the building in the first place. i can be contacted at [protected]@yahoo.com
