Hello All, I'm a probie at a college level campus EMS organization. About three days ago, I made an error in judgement and told a pretty crass joke in front of the chief of our university's police department (who, in fairness, thought it was hilarious). Immediately after telling the joke, the student public relations rep for my org grabbed my by the arm, and dug her nails into the skin, breaking the skin of my arm. I pulled away with a few scrapes, walked off to collect myself, and after about 5 minutes went back up to the PR rep and sternly told her that she was never to touch me like that again. The next day, she pulls me off duty, and reams me out for about half an hour for disrespecting her, and humiliating the organization. The kicker here is, she specifically tells me NOT to contact the faculty head of the org about the incident, and further states that my job is on the line.
I know that I could have used better judgement in my timing of a stupid joke, but I dont think that the PR rep had the right to grab me, and become physical in delivering a reprimand. My question is, do I stay quiet and let it all go (with an official reprimand on my file from the PR rep in question), or do I let the boss know what the person did?
