I work for the State and had an insane, crazy boss for a little over 5 years. He was the biggest bully ever. He was not only verbally abusive, he was physically threatening, he swore at me, constantly treated me like I had the plague, excluded me from meetings, and other things he did I won’t mention for fear he will know I am talking of him. What made things worse was the fact that no one helped me when I sought help from his tirades and bullying behavior. He would lie about me and when I could prove he was lying I was told: “take me to court, you will lose” and “I am the boss, you can’t do anything to me, no one can” and “many have tried, they are gone, but I am still here” and the best came from HIS boss: “you have no sense of humor”. I sought help from professionals that know the employment laws, but they would not help me.
I am still suffering the consequences of the retailiation from that insane human being 2 years after he was finally told to leave! Because of him, my career was stopped dead in it’s tracks, my pay is inequitable to others performing the same or less duties, my hours have been reduced and more than anything, the stigma has stayed with me with a new supervisor who sees nothing but what he has been told.
I needed this bill then…and I bet others do to! The EEOC has great laws, but if someone just does not like you, they are free to do whatever they want because there is no law that stops someone from disliking you! Bullying needs to stop.
I think I’ll be using this law if it comes into effect.
