Workplace Violence Hurts ... It Almost Ended My World
Do you know of someone who has been made to feel worthless by a boss, company,or a culture; that promotes and rewards cruelty to human beings?
Do you think it's o.k. to go to work, work hard and be intentionally hurt by workplace bullies who abuse their power?
Just like bullying in classrooms/schools is leading to bullycide's and a host of psychological issues for our youth, adults in the workplace across the world are also suffering.
Workplace, discrimination and retaliation (if you report the sometimes unlawful behaviors):
Robs an individual of their self worth, causes enormous amounts of stress, exacerbates pre-existing health conditions, can limit one's career growth, results in the hard work one does not being recognized and can also include defamation of character, slander, hostile and unhealthy work environments and even SUICIDE!
Sometimes the behavior can be subtle but the abuser knows exactly what he or she is doing. Often the abuser is manipulative and convinces individuals who they perceive as weak to do the dirty work for them so when the behavior is finally reported they are protected.

Rox it so surreal that you are returning a year to the day. Where has that year gone. All the ups and downs for you have been incredible. You will go back with your head held high and you should feel so proud with what you have achieved over this time. Rely on the positives and this will get you through, Your patients will be so pleased to see you. You will be in my thought and prayers . Friends stand by each other no matter what, that's what true friends are for.. Take care Piglit
Thank you Piglit. yes, a year to the date.... I am hoping the return date is less painful than the day I left and had to do so much just to feel safe again.... You are a true friend and I appreciate you!
Hugs,
Rox
Still waiting to return....Some people, knowing they are WRONG. will never admit that they were cruel to another human being because then that would mean they would have to be held accountable for their cowardly actions.. I am not giving up!
Hugs My friends...
Just stay focused Rox and all will be okay Hugs
This issue will never get better unless all victims speak up. Do not allow bullies to silence us
Still in this process but the end is near.... I should be returning to work by the end of the year but not without proper and legal procedures to ensure that I never what I have endured for so many years..... How are all of you doing???
Hi Rox I thought that you had retruned already to work late September , Sure is taking a long time Take care
Do not let anyone take your self light. The number of people on this planet with somekind of issues are more than those without. As a fellow human with issues mine is multiple personalities.
,I am not ashamed of it. I live with and manage it. I always say " I am from the South and we don't hide our crazies" Hold your self thght in a loving hug. Know in your heart that you are loved.
Hello Donna,
Thank you for your contribution. I am not ashamed either. What I am ashamed of is how humanity has changed for the worse. I am glad that you exist :-).
People really need to stand up against any type of disparate treatment. Especially, if a human being is intentionally being hurt!
