Being falsely accused of doing something repeatedly could be considered harassment. Creating a hostile environment of suspicion could be considered harassment to. People have a bad habit of doing this at work
I changed depts. to get away from a harassing manager. She then kept tabs on me with frequent phone calls to my new manager, who got fed up and told her to quit calling. At another job, I changed my hours to get away from a co-worker/manager who was harassing me. Shortly after, the harasser changed her hours so we were working together again. Unreal! The new hours were inconvenient for her, but I guess stalking me was worth it? After some months, she went back to her old hours as I guessed that she would. What in the world causes people to go out of their way to pester people?
There is no law against harassment at work and the perpetrators know this very well, that’s why they are having a field day doing it. They do not care, they know the lack of laws gives their target nothing to protect themselves. Until a clear law comes up, good people will suffer greatly. People who are not in a “protected group”, have no protection.
I think this guy made a point that there is a more defined list of attributes elsewhere that clarifies more groups of people who are at risk of discrimination
I was told by a lawyer that the law expects people to be thick-skinned. When my ability was undermined to work for a certain company, a federal judge said, "That's unfortunate."
Yeah it's a very big problem. Sociopaths are drawn to managerial/powerful positions because it satiates their need to dominate/control. It's a HUGE problem in public education, I've met more narcissistic principals than good ones.
When one is the minority physically or even mentally (high function autism / aspergers for instance), the chances of workplace harassment absolutely go up and is perhaps often the case. Deliberately disrupting your life, your sleep, your health - harassment is quite suspect
Yes,my son is an Asperger.He got 9 universities in USA,Canada and Europe.But mental health is not enough for self defense.Because yesterday one man call him flower.😓How can I help my son?
A co-worker has been harassing me and making passive-aggressive remarks/comments toward me for about a year or so. Management has been notified of these reoccurring comments/incidents and said they would talk to her. I was never sat down for a follow-up afterward to confirm this "sit down" or told that this co-worker has been talked to and told to stop harassing me. This co-worker has spread rumors about me and told a server that she enjoys “messing with me.” on July 4th she screamed my name in the kitchen “somebody tell jamie to grab ice” she then proceeded to say that this was my running side work and that I’m responsible for grabbing ice when there was also 3 other servers assigned to this specific side work. I have taken a picture of the team sheet as proof to show it was not only me with this side work to prove that she was specifically coming at me. She then proceeded that she was going to "knock the shit out of me" during our dinner rush in the middle of the kitchen. She has gotten other co-workers to also engage in this harassment towards me. About 5 minutes after the incident with this co-worker, her friend got in my face and started to clap her hands near my face. She told me that nobody here likes me and that I am useless as a worker here. I do not feel safe working in this type of working environment. The next day I was taken off the schedule around 3 pm. The other 2 individuals had also been removed and then reinstated. I was told that I would not be put back on the schedule until the Store Manager talked with me. Which I had difficulty setting up a mutual time with him. I came in with my mother as a support system and he refused to talk and meet with me unless she was not present with us. He also told us that he “only had 10 minutes to talk” because he had an MVA meeting and this was basically dipping into his vacation time. The store manager told me during the meeting that all of us get fired or all of us ignore each other and keep our jobs. I feel that it is unfair that I would lose my job because of this situation that I did not provoke. HR told me that they would make the store manager write up official/formal documentation of this incident. I would like to know how I can go further with this and I would like to know what my rights are in this type of situation.
I would also like to add that I am scared to leave my car parked in my establishment's parking lot. I feel like they would vandalize it in some way. I feel that I have to park my car outside of the parking area. I am also scared to leave my water bottle out or my food in any open space for fear that they would do something to it. I have been waking up crying, and going to bed crying, I am absolutely miserable over this and it is affecting me outside of work. I have to ask my manager to check out my closing side work instead of my co-workers in fear of the way they will react or treat me.

Do not leave! Document everything and everyone who participates in the protected categories severe, pervasive, unsolicited, unwarranted verbal, telephonic, or email infringements. Try to get all things in writing and coworkers names, positions, and contact information outside of work as work place emails can be compromised. Find out who You complain to and know that the persons will be informed so be brave! Do not quit!
I quit because none of that was working for ME Especially when leadership from top to bottom is rotten to the core. Workplace mobbing is real. My now non-swollen lymph nodes and the rest of my body “thank” me everyday for leaving that rancid place. Better to walk away than to KEEL over from the stress of working with reprobate zombies who have no conscience. In other people’s’ cases the documentation and things you mentioned may very well work. Mental and Physical health first.
Larger companies are not lenient on harassment and violence in the workplace. Smaller local companies usually don’t care. That’s why you don’t work local. They’re not going anywhere with that attitude.
Very true, the large corporations handle harassment like a champion from my experience. The small companies often have a patronizing HR. It might feel uncomfortable but letting management know anyways is key - it's always going to be somewhat uncomfortable when you know someone is very likely going to get fired for sure. Surprised what I've overheard in gossip about other individuals sometimes - like a dark-triad personality singling out a "unique" individual in hopes of them quitting - the workplace bullies really do try to push others to quit. Some even get too comfortable and start making violent jokes about specific individuals - hardly appropriate and honestly still a threat to be humoring such scenarios.
@@JimmyJaxJellyStax In my experience, with my last job, the HR team wasn’t the problem. It was the supervisor who permitted harassment and overall bad behavior, being cliquey with people and playing favoritism. Upper management swept it under the rug. I left and found a much better job, without drama or intimidation from people.
I have worked for small companies that do not have an HR department. If there's a conflict between two workers, they will just fire the two workers and hire two new workers that can get along with each other.
My supervisor is telling people I’m gay using that slur that goes with it. I’m going to confront him in private tomorrow. I’m recording too and getting answers. My girlfriend left me for a loser my life is turning to crap and now I can’t even enjoy work.
How did it go? Not legal advice but another way of doing this is by texting or emailing management what might be happening in the workplace. That way there's physical evidence of the employee and management having communication about a problem at work instead of management denying or forgetting it if they were asked about it in the future. It also makes management take the complaint more seriously and more likely to do something about it in case the employee decides to sue them later on or escalates to violence. Texting or emailing management also takes the awkwardness away from talking about it in person.
I hate work place abuse… I was abused at every employment my whole life…. When the company gets what they want from me they eventually fire me. I feel I don’t have rights.
Economic recessions seem to raise the tolerance for workplace harassment to keep employement. The problem is neglecting harassment and simply tolerating it is... very destructive in many ways.
I got seriously injured at work right before Christmas, and my boss has been doing some very shady things to me and this last few weeks that makes healing mentally emotionally and physically very hard. so I'm hoping you can guide me .
My daughter is working in a disability company and just because she stood up for new employee they been harassing her telling her she need to put her phone in a box in the office but they go into her bag now she is 1 min late write up with in a grace period. She is young adult and the other is grown adult
What if they threaten you by telling you to leave when you stand up for the way their treating you? Leaving in our workplace directed by a manager is another way of them saying your getting terminated
@James-gp5cw I do forgive them, as I do love them and I pray for them. While I understand that the battle is spiritual and not with the flesh, I can see God doing things for me in the aspect and things have changed so I’m thankful to God for that! It can be tough but I lean on God and he’s there and I try not to lean on my own understandings but just trust in Him and Him alone! Thank you brother
Okay but what if you send a written message to the person asking them to stop and they deny they did the harassment in their written response back to you? And deny it to the boss, who they are friends with?
@marisazabala2596HR. Document everything with dates and specifics without making it too long . Check the harassment policy in work handbook or policy on line. I'm going thru it now and I'm doing the research. One thing is u can take out a civil suit for harassment on the individual then there's a sense of seriousness going to happen. I threatened to take out a defamation suit against a boss , shut them up ....this person currently I'm about to charge with theft by deception for sending me home early saying I did something I didn't do
This Ed Hones CZcams feature pertaining to Workplace Harrassment is helpful especially with the examples given for each of 3 elements referenced. Luckily I know of at least two people I can talk to at my job about this if necessary.
1st day of employment Trouble coworker says and does -"If you like so and so then something is wrong with you" Talking about our only female tech -Let off a device that requires you to wear hearing ppe (makes a sound as loud as a gun shot) 5 feet away from me (was not preforming work with it simply just walked up to me and did so.) -Wiped grease on me -Makes a disrespectful nickname for me (other coworkers start using it.) Sometime after -Trainer instructs me to perform malpractice (Told me to not do a inspection and lie saying I actually did it) -Coworker tells me I'm a scumbag and he will punish me -Management instruct him to talk to me after I complain, tells me I'm nothing special and he will keep going -Tries to spray me with PB blaster, corrosive carcinogenic flammable compound meant. I slap it out of his hand and he sprays someone else who yells at him -Instructs me to blast a air tool into a sink full of water (which I refuse to do.) Throughout -Calls me and me alone "new guy" -Other much newer coworkers he calls by name, singles me out -Makes remarks and jabs -Asks me If I'm gay {I am, but feel like it's harassment} so i just say "I'm straight leave me alone."
My boss wont STFU about me going to the bathroom on the other end of the building (150 ft) I find it stupid, waste of time. He just keeps going with passive aggressive comments. I'd imagine it's not harassment if it won't stop.
I dealt with that at jersey Mike's in virginia. The supervisor and the managers kept saying weird creepy homosexual things to me and other coworkers, touching us inappropriately. The supervisor tried to have a meeting at my house for a promotion and i was like hell no. And then all of a sudden my training process got slowed down. And then they made some young kid manager and then i heard the kid going to a hotel with the supervisor. So you know what that implies they are doing sexual favors for promotion. The job would also hire family members and friends which is a conflict of interest. Their family and coworkers were lazy and wouldn't do the work and would still keep getting paid. And they would make me do all the work.
Is it work place harassment for somebody to frequently complain about or be dismissive of Boomers, or for somebody to frequently complainn about or be dismissive of Millennials?
Age is a protected characteristic if the person is over 40 years old. So, being harassed for being a Boomer might qualify as harassment on the basis of age. Whether or not the harassment rises to the level of Hostile Work Environment will depend on the elements I outlined in the video. For instance, who is the harasser? Does the employer know about the conduct? How severe or persistent is the harassment? Did the harassment impact the victim's ability to do their job?
@@edhones Some millenials will be turning 40 every year between 2021 and 2036. It seems constitutionally (14th, equal protection) unfair to say it's harassment to descriminate against "age", rather than specify that it's not "age" descrimination, it's 40+ adult descrimination. I mean, if it's legally allowed to harass people about their age, for being under the age of 40. But it's happened. To me and many others. I've seen the battle lines across national news. Results in lowered morale, lost job and general living opportunities, lost respect for peers and avoidance tactics, a general fear of being written off as expendable. It sounds like it's a case-by-case situation, where it centers around how offended an individual becomes, rather than how offensive the action(s) had been. Thank you for your reply, and your efforts in informing the public about how law functions. Law is the programming that designs how our society is shaped; it is one of the most important things.
I really hope that the age discrimination laws change. A lot of millennials, myself included, have been taunted and demeaned for being the youngest person on the team. I believe that I was involved in age discrimination because my manager talks down to me and treats me like a little kid, even though I have not given off any impression of being naive or immature. My manager always says things like, “millennials are lazy, they lack ambition,” and complains about hiring millennials. It’s sickening that the law doesn’t protect against younger employees. I hope that someone brings a strong enough case to change things because age discrimination happens at any age.
My name's Matthew and at my job I get called maid Mary cause I'm the only employee that cleans up the store and if I don't my coworker says I'm not doing my job

Too late for me.I am old. In my time bullies won,as there were no laws against ridiculing people, etc.,bullies had many supporters, including the boss.
I had this manager kept looking at me stalking me waiting for me to f up. I was not professionally train. I had over reach and told I was goimg get a write up. 5 min later I had grabbed a box off a pallet amd the height was just near my shoulder and I'm 5ft. She say I am over reaching agian and wrote me up! This is wierd stalking me Wanting me to f up.
My understanding, which may not be correct, is that 'at will' employment policies negate any claims of hostile work environment, even if explicitly stated in the employment manual.
That is not correct. Watch my video on at-will employment to learn more about what at-will employment means. czcams.com/video/pCirZ_Z7Oyw/video.htmlsi=cUuuSi0DuCDhcUS4
Lord help me I'm going through this now today I have a meeting at 11:00 to decide if I can return back to work I've been bullied for 2 weeks by a group of women who have been at the job between 27 years and 15 years get exploded Friday they were yelling at me in front of a lot of people saying we don't want you here we don't like you nobody likes you nobody wants you and I'm sorry and I snapped I cursed out really really bad in front of everybody because I felt like in front of everybody she was embarrassing me and belittling me I let my ego get the best of me however I spoke to you a few people at work and they already knew what been going on for 2 weeks and I've been secretly quietly ignoring them and doing my job sometimes smiling at them when I see them just to show them that you're not getting me out of here however the lady in HR has been there 27 years with them they have history their friends fall beyond the workplace and I just don't know what to do today I'm going to remain calm and want to listen
You have to up your game, perfect your interview skills, and work for a company that has a good reputation. A job that is too easy to get means that employer does not conduct thorough personality assessments. Especially if they have a high turnover rate, that’s a red flag 🚩 You will find the most bullies in retail, fast food, and in security guarding. You also find them frequently in receptionist positions, RN positions, and ironically enough, in HR divisions. Call centers and cashier positions are the worst because you get bullied by hundreds of customers a day. It’s better to take into consideration what your company values are, bigger corporations seem to have better work environments. Ensure the company does not have a history of employee lawsuits against it. Lastly, make sure you understand the kind of customers you will be dealing with. Fast-pace consumers are the worst kinds of customers.
Can work force you to be on medication just because you suffer from PTSD? And are they supposed to know your health info. Please let me know, I'm having trouble at work and I've worked here for over 24years already.
@Seatonni Thank you, because they have demanded that I need to take medication or have a counselor I speak with twice a month. I feel they have gone far past what they are able to do when it comes to my personal health information.
I know this sounds like a dumb question, but I just want to see if the word "compensation" means "pay" when reading RCW.49.60.180(3)? Sometimes legal wording can throw me off. I don't want to get too specific, but I do a job where my pay is a daily salary. It was understood when hired that I would be compensated for doing the job no matter how long it took it me to do so. I learned to do my job flawlessly while completing it in half the amount of time my coworkers completed theirs. They are upset that I'm efficient and think I should have to do more for no extra money, or compensation.
@James-gp5cw I'm sorry if u have been in trouble for harassment at your job , but standing up for ones Rights is a God Given Right. Revenge is God's but how I handle my life is up to me
Ive worked at my job now for 4 years.there is 3 men who has always been a problem and has madr every dishwasher quit has made serves cry and quit they follow me on break once followed me into the womens bathroom i started taking my breaks in my vehicle for the only privacy i can get if i go sweep mop the floor one of them stand and watch me all day not 1 minute am i out of their sight or they come to where they can see me are very hateful to me offers me no help whatsoever lately has been making all the women servers and staff cry and being very mean and cruel i have been getting recordings for proof.what can i do or who do i go to in this situation?
I know this video 2 years old and you might not reply. But if I’m listening correctly and if I apply this means if a owner(black) emphasizes daily that “he don’t have a good standing or liking in black people because they fuck him over the most” even operations supervisor says that and other supervisors actively act or show that does that mean workplace harassment is at play? It includes factors as implying someone is drinking when then don’t even drink like ever just to make the workplace uneasy and to defame such person
Please recommend me a good pro bono employment attorney in Jacksonville Florida. Please!! You won't believe what has happened to me. I have all emails, texts, camera footage that confirms all of the sadness i went through and still.
I'm a gay man, I had a girl as a friend and I complimented her boobs. Weeks later we had an issue not related to my compliment and now we're not friends. She then goes to work and reports me for sexually harassing her. Just because we're not friends anymore she did that
Hey Daniel just a heads up. I don't know if you'll get this message. It's funny my mom and I are both both fierce right-wing conservatives. however, we have gay friends in my mom's neighborhood. We agree to disagree on certain political things. But we like these people a lot. one of them. Bob has humor like that. He is just kind of humor like that and we joke. Because there are friends. if she wouldn't report it. You for that and acted all high-and-mighty and self. Righteous, the thing was she never really was your friend. What she was was a snake. A snake with a mask, so you have to understand that's her that's her being wicked. I have no II have no doubt you were just joking and being silly. We're all grown-ups here. What she did was vicious, malicious evil and wrong. Trust me when I tell you. You don't want pieces of c*** like that in your life. You are so much better off without her. They say it's like the trash taking itself out. I'll step it up one, it's more like a self flushing toilet. You know those toilets at the rest. Stop when you go and pop a squat. Then you stand up and it flushes itself if she left your life. That's exactly what needs to happen. Keep your chin up bro. I'm sorry that happened to you.
It’s tough to make a complaint when EVERYONE there is in on it.

Economic recessions seem to raise the tolerance for workplace harassment to keep employement.
The problem is neglecting harassment and simply tolerating it is... very destructive in many ways.
I got seriously injured at work right before Christmas, and my boss has been doing some very shady things to me and this last few weeks that makes healing mentally emotionally and physically very hard. so I'm hoping you can guide me .
My daughter is working in a disability company and just because she stood up for new employee they been harassing her telling her she need to put her phone in a box in the office but they go into her bag now she is 1 min late write up with in a grace period. She is young adult and the other is grown adult
Super helpful. It’s A Age Thing… it’s a hostel work environment
What if they threaten you by telling you to leave when you stand up for the way their treating you? Leaving in our workplace directed by a manager is another way of them saying your getting terminated
This happened to me back in September 😢at a hotel I’m trying to figure out what to do next legally
@@curlisawiggins1786 speak to a employment lawyer!
@James-gp5cw I do forgive them, as I do love them and I pray for them. While I understand that the battle is spiritual and not with the flesh, I can see God doing things for me in the aspect and things have changed so I’m thankful to God for that! It can be tough but I lean on God and he’s there and I try not to lean on my own understandings but just trust in Him and Him alone! Thank you brother
Two thumbs up 👍👍
I wish you were in Oregon.
Lol, that's what I'm saying.. Salem here.
STALKING and the person calls your job. When you report them your accused of being mentally ill!
Okay but what if you send a written message to the person asking them to stop and they deny they did the harassment in their written response back to you? And deny it to the boss, who they are friends with?
@James-gp5cw I'm not asking for a religious lecture, I'm asking how I can get it to stop, preferably without being fired about it.
@marisazabala2596HR. Document everything with dates and specifics without making it too long . Check the harassment policy in work handbook or policy on line. I'm going thru it now and I'm doing the research. One thing is u can take out a civil suit for harassment on the individual then there's a sense of seriousness going to happen. I threatened to take out a defamation suit against a boss , shut them up ....this person currently I'm about to charge with theft by deception for sending me home early saying I did something I didn't do
This Ed Hones CZcams feature pertaining to Workplace Harrassment is helpful especially with the examples given for each of 3 elements referenced. Luckily I know of at least two people I can talk to at my job about this if necessary.
1st day of employment
Trouble coworker says and does
-"If you like so and so then something is wrong with you" Talking about our only female tech
-Let off a device that requires you to wear hearing ppe (makes a sound as loud as a gun shot) 5 feet away from me (was not preforming work with it simply just walked up to me and did so.)
-Wiped grease on me
-Makes a disrespectful nickname for me (other coworkers start using it.)
Sometime after
-Trainer instructs me to perform malpractice (Told me to not do a inspection and lie saying I actually did it)
-Coworker tells me I'm a scumbag and he will punish me
-Management instruct him to talk to me after I complain, tells me I'm nothing special and he will keep going
-Tries to spray me with PB blaster, corrosive carcinogenic flammable compound meant. I slap it out of his hand and he sprays someone else who yells at him
-Instructs me to blast a air tool into a sink full of water (which I refuse to do.)
Throughout
-Calls me and me alone "new guy"
-Other much newer coworkers he calls by name, singles me out
-Makes remarks and jabs
-Asks me If I'm gay {I am, but feel like it's harassment} so i just say "I'm straight leave me alone."
My boss wont STFU about me going to the bathroom on the other end of the building (150 ft) I find it stupid, waste of time. He just keeps going with passive aggressive comments. I'd imagine it's not harassment if it won't stop.
I dealt with that at jersey Mike's in virginia. The supervisor and the managers kept saying weird creepy homosexual things to me and other coworkers, touching us inappropriately. The supervisor tried to have a meeting at my house for a promotion and i was like hell no. And then all of a sudden my training process got slowed down. And then they made some young kid manager and then i heard the kid going to a hotel with the supervisor. So you know what that implies they are doing sexual favors for promotion. The job would also hire family members and friends which is a conflict of interest. Their family and coworkers were lazy and wouldn't do the work and would still keep getting paid. And they would make me do all the work.
We’re beyond frustrated
Very good advice
Thank you so much sir for this video
I was hired because of harassment with mask when it was not mandatory anymore. But the stress to get this is not easy
Is it work place harassment for somebody to frequently complain about or be dismissive of Boomers, or for somebody to frequently complainn about or be dismissive of Millennials?
Age is a protected characteristic if the person is over 40 years old. So, being harassed for being a Boomer might qualify as harassment on the basis of age. Whether or not the harassment rises to the level of Hostile Work Environment will depend on the elements I outlined in the video. For instance, who is the harasser? Does the employer know about the conduct? How severe or persistent is the harassment? Did the harassment impact the victim's ability to do their job?
@@edhones Some millenials will be turning 40 every year between 2021 and 2036. It seems constitutionally (14th, equal protection) unfair to say it's harassment to descriminate against "age", rather than specify that it's not "age" descrimination, it's 40+ adult descrimination. I mean, if it's legally allowed to harass people about their age, for being under the age of 40.
But it's happened. To me and many others. I've seen the battle lines across national news. Results in lowered morale, lost job and general living opportunities, lost respect for peers and avoidance tactics, a general fear of being written off as expendable.
It sounds like it's a case-by-case situation, where it centers around how offended an individual becomes, rather than how offensive the action(s) had been.
Thank you for your reply, and your efforts in informing the public about how law functions. Law is the programming that designs how our society is shaped; it is one of the most important things.
I really hope that the age discrimination laws change. A lot of millennials, myself included, have been taunted and demeaned for being the youngest person on the team. I believe that I was involved in age discrimination because my manager talks down to me and treats me like a little kid, even though I have not given off any impression of being naive or immature. My manager always says things like, “millennials are lazy, they lack ambition,” and complains about hiring millennials. It’s sickening that the law doesn’t protect against younger employees. I hope that someone brings a strong enough case to change things because age discrimination happens at any age.
@@KaeBae_ I've been hearing the same things from my shift manager. It drags down my morale.
My name's Matthew and at my job I get called maid Mary cause I'm the only employee that cleans up the store and if I don't my coworker says I'm not doing my job
I am getting anonymous letters at work . Letters are attempt to labile and assassinate my character. Management has informed me they are powerless since letter is anonymous. What can I do ? This has created significant stress and I am even thinking of leaving work
U should make a videos about heart condition
If an employee states that they want for a person who was involved in a justice center investigation to die or make sure that they die is that considered harassment in NYC?
You should talk to a lawyer in NYC. It might!
These comments are fvcked... The world needs a batman for real
Or you can try praying to God for help. Good luck with that.
@@bmoshareholderappleshareho855 I don't need help. There are just so many instances of ppl getting screwed over and it's terrible that all these injustices take place on a regular basis.
Almost seems like you wishing me good luck isn't genuine 🤔 like my concern for ppl offended you... Isn't that against the very idea of being a Christian? Thou shall not be a judgemental, assumptive prick?
Watch out for Batman...
How do you get proof! He said she said doesn't work
Much needed thank you
So glad I found this video! Work in between Pierce and King county. I might reach out to you
Too late for me.I am old. In my time bullies won,as there were no laws against ridiculing people, etc.,bullies had many supporters, including the boss.
My boss said "you make our company look bad every chance you get". Is that sufficient?
Probably not! Talk to a lawyer.
I had this manager kept looking at me stalking me waiting for me to f up. I was not professionally train. I had over reach and told I was goimg get a write up. 5 min later I had grabbed a box off a pallet amd the height was just near my shoulder and I'm 5ft. She say I am over reaching agian and wrote me up! This is wierd stalking me
Wanting me to f up.
It was supposed to be Federal cleanup .and mental health
My understanding, which may not be correct, is that 'at will' employment policies negate any claims of hostile work environment, even if explicitly stated in the employment manual.
That is not correct. Watch my video on at-will employment to learn more about what at-will employment means. czcams.com/video/pCirZ_Z7Oyw/video.htmlsi=cUuuSi0DuCDhcUS4
@@edhones ok I will thank you
Lord help me I'm going through this now today I have a meeting at 11:00 to decide if I can return back to work I've been bullied for 2 weeks by a group of women who have been at the job between 27 years and 15 years get exploded Friday they were yelling at me in front of a lot of people saying we don't want you here we don't like you nobody likes you nobody wants you and I'm sorry and I snapped I cursed out really really bad in front of everybody because I felt like in front of everybody she was embarrassing me and belittling me I let my ego get the best of me however I spoke to you a few people at work and they already knew what been going on for 2 weeks and I've been secretly quietly ignoring them and doing my job sometimes smiling at them when I see them just to show them that you're not getting me out of here however the lady in HR has been there 27 years with them they have history their friends fall beyond the workplace and I just don't know what to do today I'm going to remain calm and want to listen
You have to up your game, perfect your interview skills, and work for a company that has a good reputation.
A job that is too easy to get means that employer does not conduct thorough personality assessments. Especially if they have a high turnover rate, that’s a red flag 🚩
You will find the most bullies in retail, fast food, and in security guarding. You also find them frequently in receptionist positions, RN positions, and ironically enough, in HR divisions.
Call centers and cashier positions are the worst because you get bullied by hundreds of customers a day.
It’s better to take into consideration what your company values are, bigger corporations seem to have better work environments. Ensure the company does not have a history of employee lawsuits against it.
Lastly, make sure you understand the kind of customers you will be dealing with. Fast-pace consumers are the worst kinds of customers.
Can work force you to be on medication just because you suffer from PTSD? And are they supposed to know your health info. Please let me know, I'm having trouble at work and I've worked here for over 24years already.
They are not allowed to speak on your medical information among multiple staff and employees, and future employers.
@Seatonni Thank you, because they have demanded that I need to take medication or have a counselor I speak with twice a month. I feel they have gone far past what they are able to do when it comes to my personal health information.
I had a mediation the outcome was not in my favor at all
How is it that a companyl seems to back a single worker that n turn harasses and causes problems for co workers. Are they all hiding something?
What if you get harassed by a illegal employee at work work place
I know this sounds like a dumb question, but I just want to see if the word "compensation" means "pay" when reading RCW.49.60.180(3)? Sometimes legal wording can throw me off.
I don't want to get too specific, but I do a job where my pay is a daily salary. It was understood when hired that I would be compensated for doing the job no matter how long it took it me to do so. I learned to do my job flawlessly while completing it in half the amount of time my coworkers completed theirs. They are upset that I'm efficient and think I should have to do more for no extra money, or compensation.
@James-gp5cw I'm sorry if u have been in trouble for harassment at your job , but standing up for ones Rights is a God Given Right. Revenge is God's but how I handle my life is up to me

Not sure if your video would apply here in the Bahamas
I know this video 2 years old and you might not reply. But if I’m listening correctly and if I apply this means if a owner(black) emphasizes daily that “he don’t have a good standing or liking in black people because they fuck him over the most” even operations supervisor says that and other supervisors actively act or show that does that mean workplace harassment is at play? It includes factors as implying someone is drinking when then don’t even drink like ever just to make the workplace uneasy and to defame such person
I don’t break the law nor willing to do csnt compete and to think my own family and company I no longer work at harassed me non stop
What if it’s just really really cruel
Facts
So if I’m not gay or black I can’t get money if o quit
Great HD video
Please recommend me a good pro bono employment attorney in Jacksonville Florida. Please!! You won't believe what has happened to me. I have all emails, texts, camera footage that confirms all of the sadness i went through and still.
Can I send a letter to this person/ mgr to stop harassing me
I wish I knew this video when I was getting trashed by the feds a few years ago
I am harassed at my job and I plan on going to my HR.
HR will not help
You. They are charged to protect the company. Get a lawyer.

I'm a gay man, I had a girl as a friend and I complimented her boobs. Weeks later we had an issue not related to my compliment and now we're not friends. She then goes to work and reports me for sexually harassing her. Just because we're not friends anymore she did that
Hey Daniel just a heads up. I don't know if you'll get this message. It's funny my mom and I are both both fierce right-wing conservatives. however, we have gay friends in my mom's neighborhood. We agree to disagree on certain political things. But we like these people a lot. one of them. Bob has humor like that. He is just kind of humor like that and we joke. Because there are friends. if she wouldn't report it. You for that and acted all high-and-mighty and self. Righteous, the thing was she never really was your friend. What she was was a snake. A snake with a mask, so you have to understand that's her that's her being wicked. I have no II have no doubt you were just joking and being silly. We're all grown-ups here. What she did was vicious, malicious evil and wrong. Trust me when I tell you. You don't want pieces of c*** like that in your life. You are so much better off without her. They say it's like the trash taking itself out. I'll step it up one, it's more like a self flushing toilet. You know those toilets at the rest. Stop when you go and pop a squat. Then you stand up and it flushes itself if she left your life. That's exactly what needs to happen. Keep your chin up bro. I'm sorry that happened to you.
