My job is the reason i am in the shape i am in. I get harassed constantly and i was asked about a coworker and i gave my opinion to the manager who asked. Then i get cornered yesterday by both of them and a supervisor from the main office. They tell me i am going to be fired because i told my opinion and it seemed to have venom in the response. The truth is the manager and the person she asked about are great friends. she told her and now i am going to be pushed out. I didnt say anything harsh or even close to being rude i was asked a question and i answered it. As some of you know the person i was asked about was a person that constantly harasses me on a daily bassis and makes my life hell. I would quit but i have to have an income as i am barley getting by now. I plan on moving on as soon as something breaks for me and i can start a new job.

Until then i have to go through this suffering and at times i wonder if its worth even living through this anymore. I have complained to my boss to have them leave me alone and she herself says she doesnt care and either does the office. I am in the middle i am scared to the point i cant sleep or hardly function i will be fired everyday and loose everything i have or i will have to put up with the constant harassment. I was going to get a lawyer but i cant afford one and besides they would just make it harder on me as well.

I cant go forward but i cant go back either i at times think this is too much to bear anymore and sometimes i wish i wont wake up anymore to be done with this living hell.

I cant figure out what i did so terribly to deserve this.

thanks for letting me vent:cry:

The first thing I'd suggest is getting in touch with the department of labor for your state or maybe an attorney and see what they have to say. If you were asked your opinion, then they can't fire you for that. If you were going around saying it without asking, that's a differant thing.

As for the problems with not being able to go forward or back... a simple thing to tell you about me. Because of a work related injury I was out of work for over six months. When I was able to go back, I was layed off because of a bad summer. I was stuck... no money, no job, nothing. I applied for unemployment, and now I'm waiting to see what happens with that. But I'm trusting God to help me, and there's a couple of things in the works.

Either way, the thing is trust God, and let Him Guide you.

Easier said than done, but still......

God Bless and Keep you.


Fred.

Troubles in this world refine us and help us trust God more each mountain we encounter in life. Pray earnestly to God for His help and then trust His answer. If you do, you will land on your feet somewhere on the other side of the problems. He is powerful to rescue His own and keep watch over their steps.

Psalms 57:4 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

Ps 140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

Dude! Contact your local EEOC office. They are the big dogs with the sharp teeth that can and will provide for you a junk yard dog for an attorney..for free. EEOC stands for Equal Employment Oppurtunity Commision. What is happening to you is seriously jacked up and you need to fight for justice.

Peace-

If you are to this point I would definately contact either the EEOC or your union rep if you are in a union.

Here is a pearl of wisdom I was given and have learned to live by:
- Confess no one's sins but your own.
It makes things so much easier.

Thank you all for your help. Although i am still having a hard time right now i know that things will get better eventually [i hope :) ] The thing is i feel as though i do my job with the best of intentions and do it to my fullest and if thats not good enough for some people then thats thier problem.

I still am worried alot about my job and i am getting things around to start sending out my resume to other employers and i hope i get something but i am putting my faith in god and i trust he will lead me through this. I have to say ever since i have stumbled upon this forum i feel as though my prayers in a scence have been answered. I have found people who are compationate and true to themselves and thier god. I must admit that until recently i was not a very religeous person. what i mean by that is i tried to live my life as best and straight forward as i could with kindness. I think that i am a magnet for those who feel the need to press thier agressions toward someone because i am a person who would walk away from a conflict not because i was afriad i was challanged morally and i thought by reaching the point of degrading someone or striking another was too low to go.

But anyway i prayed that i would find people who are kind and understanding and with this place i feel a warm scence of honesty and friendship. I thank all of you.

Oh i will call the eeo place monday i guess its time for me to start to stop getting knocked down and stand some ground with a firm little nudge going in the oppositedirection. Mediforically of course :)

Hopefully, that nudge will come in the form of a legal sledge hammer. Mediforically speaking :).

Peace and good luck my friend-

tell the people that are harrassing you..that if they do not stop..you are contacting EEOC.. and i would suggest that you take a small hand held tape recorder and tape some of these things down.. that would help.. they would be caught red handed.
