In Reply To: It doesn't stay at work in this day and age. And switching jobs isn't really the answer. We need to write to our congressmen and they need to take our concerns about corporate culture seriously! Many workers are being bullied and it is affecting their ability to make a decent living in addition to the physical health problems that they develop from too much stress at work. Even doctors are really concerned about the growing, silent epidemic.......
Message: I have had many jobs in my long career-I find the worse offenders at really at the MANAGEMENT LEVEL-They bully harrass, scream, lie, steal, are cruel and Are not at all Silent! California used to protect employees from these abuses, but has changed the law now-If It is not a Sexual or Discriminatory (race, age, etc.), then the Labor Board won't even listen anymore! I spoke to the 2 Labor Attorneys-Now have referred me to a Workman's Comp Attorney- I don't want workers comp- I just want these Bullies To go to Charm or Etiquette School-They used to do that-The Labor Board would investigate a work complaint And if they found the complaints to be true, witing a year-There was action taken-& a cash settelement! Now that was fair-So now you have to go on Workmans Comp- & who wants to do that for mental & emotional distress-??? As long as these monsters are out there-People are at risk everywhere.
