RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Over the weekend, I worked with a well known harasser and she kept giving me passive aggressive comments to the point I couldn't focus. She even texted me, "What is your compacity to work?" What's even supposed to mean? I am not a lazy person. I am very hardworking and i am very likable and popular.

Today I talked to my team leader and she told me to file a complaint to my manager on Friday. I am scared as hell. The bully has been there since day one and I am new. I don't mind getting fired but someone needs to speak up. This will be the first time I will be filling a complaint. I work in a state with no anti bullying protection. People can be fired at will. I am not of any "protection" group. The only thing I have is I am very popular

I don't have much more to offer than the other comment offered, but I wish you the best and support you. I've been the whistleblower, so to say, at other places of work and it was the right thing to do, regardless of outcome. I also work in a state where one can be fired whenever for whatever.

Wishing you the best.
