Workplace Violence Hurts ... It Almost Ended My World

Posted by Roxie43 @roxie43, Apr 13, 2012

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.

Meeting next week and of course the people that have caused so much pain will communicate via phone. One said that I like an audience. I am not an actress, I am a human being with feelings that were stomped over as if I was meaningless.

It's amazing how corrupt and unethical employers can be. To blatantly deny someone an accomodation that is clearly written in the ADA takes cojones.....

I am informed of everything and it actually nauseates me. How can a healthcare company operate like this?

I just wish that bigots with transference issues could at least be honest. To hurt someone in such a malicious way and then be a coward and deny it is unreal.
I People really need to speak up because these people that intentionally and maliciously hurt another human being should not be shielded, should not be licensed and should not be in charge of anything.

so true but unfortunately it occurs all the time and this is why we need to speak out about concerns within the workplace and take necessary action if we need to

What a horrible experience. I really don't know why I did not crack sooner under those working conditions..

Disparate treatment hurts. It hurts even more when it takes place in the workplace with educated and licensed professionals who should know better. However, it takes humility and empathy, something one cannot posses from a book, so I am learning that my field has people in it worse off than me.
