I wonder about that a lot. I'll need to get a job soon and I don't want to take on the stress I used to. But, if certain things at work prevent ME from being able to work, I'll get frustrated and stressed. If things happen I don't have control over and don't really affect me too much, I think I could manage. How often does that happen, really?
I let a lot of thins go now. I've realized where I try to do all this work no one else puts forth half the effort I do. I don't get paid enough to be their *****. Right now I'm working on filing a complaint against employees of another company for bullying and harassment. I've got email proof and lots of phone conversations with a manager in my own company. Not to mention plenty of video where these 2 women managers from the other company repeatedly come up to me in a pal and try to intimidate, harass and belittle me. If these complaints do nothing I will take these complaints higher in their company and there are witnesses.

I hate how cheap my workplace has turned into. They automatically swipe us out now instead of doing it manually in order to save a couple cents by swiping us out earlier. They keep sending us home early too. It's ****ing frustrating being paid student minimum wage and getting sent home after an hour of work. Not to mention all the new people they've been hiring which results in the existing workers not getting enough shifts.
lots of ups and downs for me, I start to get ahead then have the rug pulled from under me

I work in a hostile environment with bullying and harassment. The really sad part is that I work in a daycare with toddlers. I am one of two assistants and our classroom lead is a major bully with control issues. She claims she has OCD and jokes about it often. I really don't find it funny and get tired of her insults and complaints.

On the bright side, we have a behavioral specialist who is very sweet and she has talked to me and helped me so much. I don't know what I would do without her to lean on. I go home daily with headaches and on the verge of tears. I am good at what I do and the children mean the world to me. My room lead, on the other hand, thinks I do nothing right and reminds me daily.

I am fed up and don't know where to turn.

I work in mental health and while I haven't reveled to my coworkers that I deal with Bipolar Disorder. I had a previous coworker who had revealed that she did. Suddenly everything she did was blamed on it. Any time she would show emotion.

It is like come on we work in mental health, you are trained to understand this. Yet this is how you act!

I have been told there is a legal term for harassment/bullying at work; creating a "Hostile Work Environment". Seeing as there is a legal term would this lead one to assume there are legal repercussions if one were a perpetrator of bullying/harassment?

I am at my wits end and am losing sleep and the joy I was found in my job is dwindling quickly. I try to ignore this co-worker but I find it almost impossible to do now.

Anyone have suggestions? I am also looking for other work but it is a slow process.

I love my job, its wonderful. I work at a vet. But anxiety attacks at work are no fun. I finally confided in our vet tech, (kind of my boss) and she told me that she will work on me because that's not something I can have in life. I told her that I've had it since I was little and she insisted she can fix it, by making me talk to strangers etc. But the reason she found out about my anxiety was I was preparing surgery packs, and she told me something was wrong with the drape. I asked her what it was and she told me its common sense. I stared at it for a good ten minutes and asked her to tell me. She told me that I had to stand there until I figured it out. Of course me being me I got stressed out and started crying (a heavy part of my attacks) and she laughed and was like are you really crying that's ridiculous!
Anyways that's my rant
