Re: job hunting
What the hell?
Can you complain? Does your work have an HR dept or anything?
That's seriously horrible and I'm sorry to read this but if you can try and take this further.
Fuck those scumbags that are behind this by the way...

Re: job hunting
I am feeling I'll soon have to move on from my current position, sorry to hear you're being made feel that way in yours.
Everyone at my work seems very pleasant and so I don't want to cause any trouble for them, but some are so poor at their own work that it makes my job very difficult and thus my weeks can be incredibly stressful. I suppose in some places you just need to watch your own back, and maybe I don't do it. Also, some of the work I do contrasts with my morals, but that is normal for most people unfortunately. Work is work is work.

Re: job hunting
well, essentially hr isn't an option. my freind went to them when she was being sexually harrassed, lost her job, went to a solicitor, proved it happened and got a settlement and the manager still works for them!
basically i was getting bullied by members of staff including the duty manger (from june 2014)- i went to my manager to resolve it- he did not. i had a break down and went into thearapy then got told i had to be discaplined for being sick and they stopped paying me sick leave- i was working 4 days and the 5th was sick pay. i went to the meeting with a letter from my doctor stating what had happened and read a statement. was asked what i wanted to happen (by a massive arrogant prick) i said all i care about is my health so transfer me- and clean my record as they were to blame. this they did and my new manager was a prick (told me i'd be suspended ;cos i turned up for work and the manager in charge didn't so i wnet back home after an hour- three miles each way- and then didn't go back hours later when he turned up, i had a panic attack- swore at him sat in the staff room under a counter beating my head against a radiator and was sent home. went to my thearpist who said to be signed off- was signed off last week for three weeks and now they keep trying to get me to go to meetings to discuss my sickness (when i got the letter i had a panic attack)- even though i am signed off by my doctor. i'm using the time to find out my economic situation (housing whilst i find a new job) and further education and work for the time being. i really, really, really hate these people.
i'm going to leave as soon as i know where i stand economically which will be soon

Re: job hunting
I'm very sorry to read this. You must have records of these scumbags that show up in what your Dr. has to say, why not refer it to the same Solicitor that beat them in court before with the young lady who was hassled? If he took the case on a percentage basis, or maybe even pro bono, unlikely, but I have known attorneys here in the USA that had been so pissed off by such lowlifes that they would take a case & try to get the bereaved party something; it's often cheaper to settle out of court than continue.
No matter what, even though it will be challenging, you'll be away from these pitiful subhumans. Hang in there; it will get better in time. It is shameful how unkind so many, too many, people are. There is always Kharma. I believe in it; and I hope you are OK.

Sounds like a nightmare - I hope you get some satisfaction in this. Good luck!
Re: job hunting
So i really can't give you an answer where to start directly, but sometimes a change of your view might help to get the right idea. Take a look at http://freakonomics.com - i like the questions they ask and the answers they give. There are some episodes that might help you. I cross my fingers for your future.

Re: job hunting
Hate NOT; this will hurt You much more than it will those people; & since Dueling is out of fashion and illegal, I'd suggest, as strongly as I can, to concentrate on the Future. I have never left a job I did not like that a better, and more enjoyable job did not take its place; but I would implore you to avoid Hate; it will eat at you while those who cause you to feel the Hate are left immune from it. You only need to move on without hurting yourself, which can happen. It WILL get better if you focus in a Positive way at just getting there; if a bump or two are in the way, get o'er them, and focus on the New Job. I've had some bizarre jobs, and worked at something since I was a kid; it always got better if energy is Positive and focused on what is to come, not what drove you away.
Hate takes needed energy away from accomplishment, and is wasted on what will hurt you instead of improving the situation. I KNOW it is a terrible feeling to have been wronged; but it happens, so either give in and give up, or concentrate on what needs doing and get to a better place.
Good Luck to You!

Re: job hunting
yes, you are right. in the long term, as my doctor said, i will go on to do great things and they'll be stuck there with who they are. either they'll pay me or they won't. i doesn't matte rin the grand scheme of things. i wrote to my mp as i do not think this behviour should be tollerated but i am not going to have any active part in anything to do with it. i remember reading about people on here losing their jobs/being forced to quit and it all seemed to work out well for them so onwards and upwards!
