Hey all

Hope you re all OK.

Never posted on here, actually I've just discovered the thread. I've just spend 40 minutes reading pages and pages.

Just wanted to say that even though some things you are discussing seem quite sad, a really nice vibe comes out of this thread.

Hi, nice to meet you. I'm sure you'll find the thread helpful, we're all friends here

Oh so sorry work has been so tough on you!!! I wish I could offer you some really good advice...but I just don't know what to say huni.

The book I am reading at the moment is this - http://www.eruditor.com/books/item/9781841191256.html.en
I think there is a section in there on bullying at work....but I am not up to there yet so don't know if there is anything in that will help you?
Likewise I don't know if maybe something here will help you?

Hey thankyou.

I have a friend who isnt too well though she won't really admit it. Might get her onto here, in her own time.

And to Rose07, I know I don't know you but reading your post from yesterday when you said you were a blank canvas. I ll go and get you some paint, paint you a bit (not quite sure what colour yet, need some time to think ) and then pour the rest down your manager's throat - teehee.

I'll accept the hot chocolate and the kiss.
I'm fine thanks, just drinking some coke (a-cola, just to clarify - dont want anyone thinking anything else ). maybe quarter to twelve isn't really the right time, might be up til 5 at this rate.

My situation ? Well my friend is just going up and down, it's quite "scary" dont really know how to explain, one day she ll be fine, the next she's someone else. It's hard to know how to act. I offended her with something really stupid that was meant as a joke the other day, if I'd said the same thing a while ago she would have wet herself.

Hi Everyone,
Hope your all well and feeling good.

Rose07, sorry about the rough time your having.Your boss is a very unproffesional pig!!! Some times when bullies sense that one person is emotional, they like to pick on them. Arrggghhh If only I saw your boss in the street, I would really put them in there place. How dare she treat you and speak to you like that. Make a note of how she has been treating you. You as an employee do not have to put up with that kind of bullying. Like OP have said, sheck to see if she has a manager or human resources. Do you have a union for your place of work?If so then go speak to your union rep hun.Many years ago, I was temping for a well known clothing company, I was younger then but this young woman kept picking on me, she was so rude and disrespectful that in the end I snapped as she was humiliating me in front of staff and customers. I walked out as there was no point fighting the cow coz she was a manager.When your a temp and not been there long, they seem to take the other side and not act on the bullying. But I made sure the company was aware of her behaviour so If she treated someone the same way then Its on paper to say what she is like.
When I was younger, I was never afriad to speak my mind, I could be really horrible to people but thats coz they deserved it, my mouth could get me in trouble to now.Now tho its a different story, I keep my mouth shut.

Tulip, glad you had a lovely time hun-you deserved to have fun and a great night out.xxx

Hi diamond
how r u tonight?
aww bless ya hun...hey i got an idea, if ever she walking down a dark alley, iw ill be waiting :rotfl:just a shame im not a violent person
I think because i work for a big company, they cant ignore what i gonna say, or they could then have serious problems, but then i think they are a big company and will fight tooth and nail at me. But its not the company i want to have a go at, its my boss Dont know if we have a union , need to look into this further, but we must do, such a big company, must do
I understand what you mean, im sorry you were bullied while at work, dont know why people feel the need to pick on others. My boss also shouts at me infront of customers...to a point couldnt care about myself, but it doesnt half make a customer edgey if my boss is havin a go at me, as the customer can see its wrong.
I think its a good thing to talk hun, and ya can talk anytime here
thank you for ya advice/help
