Not a lot...... if an employer doesn't respect me, nor care about my work, someone who is always giving me grief...even though I did nothing....but because there in a bad mood and takes it out on me........not alot.

One employer had literally screwed me with bullying me, harassment, degrading me........this went on and and on......it was an automotive dealership as a Receptionist/Admin, and she was the office manager...even thought my work was from the President, Vice President, Sales managers and sales staff who appreciate me, dependented on me, acknowledged constantly of my efforts and skills....this switchboard had 19 incoming lines and 70 extensions and an intercom system........no one had managed to survive on this system for it was extremely busy....plus being multi-tasked, wore a head-set, while doing other things.

I went above her head several times.....she had stopped bothering me, then would start up on me.....until I started getting panic attacks while driving closer to work.



So one day, my manager came downstairs and put her finger on my desk and tapped it hard and said do this now!.........I had rang the President as I was doing something for him and asked him if I could leave it...he said, no, this comes first............rang my office manager and told her what he said.

She again came downstairs and tapped hard with her finger on my desk, and said, did you not hear what I just said?

I had known she was going to do this.....so I packed up all of my things ahead of time..........and said to her, yes I heard what you said, but you also know the Presidents assignments comes first.......and now I am leaving.

She was shocked as hell, she hollered back to me to come back as the phones were ringing........I turned around and said, over my dead body you ****ing bag.

Went home and sued her for harassment and bullying.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another place I had worked at...the only girl that worked there continually bullied me..in front of other staff as well......my boss talked to her, Head Office talked to her........but that only made her madder with me......

I came in one day.........to a toilet full of blood, the ladies washroom, .... yeah that was special....blood all over the seat as well.:-5:-5

I marched into her office and asked her to clean it up as I had to use the washroom........she denied doing it and refused to clean it. Well there was only 2 women that worked there, her and me.

She also knew it was not from me.........my periods had stopped.

Went into my mangers office and told him everything, he marched in and told her to clean it up immediately........she refused and said it wasn't her mess.

So again, packed up my things and told my boss...........no one treats me this way...........you will be hearing from my lawyer.





and after those 2 experience, no one will harass or bully me again..........their time will come.

actually yes I did........I worked for the dealership for 10 years....4 managers offered me their references.

the second one, the manager wrote one up and sent it out without my asking.

I am a Leo so I am short tempered and dont put up with crap:sneaky: :sneaky:I worked for 4 doctors and this new one started and she gave me grieve....I let it go for about a month...which is good for me, then I let loose and told her exactly what I thought of her behaviour and I wasnt going to put up withit for much longer.......would you believe we ended up the best of friends after that:D

[princessladedah]

We have all put up with her crap, and even called the labor board on her, she bides her time then screws with us one by one, and I mean where she is trying to make you lose your job, nothing gets done, so now after 15 years in the medical field, I am looking for another job out of pharmacy. So many women are such witches.

just a hint.....when you phone the labour board.....people at your work will find out about it....and employers despise anyone calling the labor board on them........I was once fired for that......of course they never admitted that was the reason..they said they no longer required my services and refused to explain why..

plus other employers told me why they fired me.

when something is continuous then it becomes too much for me. I can put up with a lot but life's too short to be miserable all the time.

I would have walked out right there. >job

As soon as they described it as a job I would have said "ya know what...I dont need this crap from you" and walked out slamming the door behind me.
