victimisation/bullying at work

[coalpoolwalla]

need to know whare i stand realy.

my gaffer at work is such a nob.
right, just before christmas i had a verbal warning for lateness. went back to work last week and had FINAL written warning for having a day off because the weather was too bad and i felt it was too dangerous to get to work.
Today he suspended me for going to the cafe 7mins before my break had started. i had to set out abit early because of the roads.

but this is my problem.
his brother also works there. on numorous occasions he has offered people out, pushed people, threw his dummy out basicly and nothing gets said.
today he threw a cup of tea over my mates job because he said someone had messed around with his drink. what if it had gone on my mate. it would have burnt him.
but still nothing said to him. the gaffer said he only done it because some1 was playing a prank on him and he reacted.

i feel as tho he is trying to get rid of me for some reason but look after his brother.

everyone at work would agree with me.

where do i stand and what can be done about it

sorry about the essay i just wanted to make the story as clear as possible

[kcsaxo]

its all about the evidence mate, as long as your mate will be willing to sign a statement that back up what youre writing about it should stand up. the only problem is that these things can take a long time to sort out so whether or not youre willing to slug it out is another matter that you need to think about.

[coalpoolwalla]

thats the thing... i want it sorting before i loose my job which will more than likely be tommorow when i go back for a meeting with the MD

[chimpy_vts]

im having the same problem but my advice what im doing is taking them to court as its free and if you win you get compo, you have to gather every bit of evidance you can and its good if you have people willing to testifie for you! hope you get it sorted matey

[coalpoolwalla]

cheers for the help.
first things first.... that nice 59 plate astra cabby he got... mmmmm look nice in charcoal black if ya know what i mean :P

[hellonpluto]

its all about vigilante work, find out where he lives and fuck his house/poessesions over!

[coalpoolwalla]

+1. he will have it one way or another beleave me.

[wardy123]

if you get sacked take them to a tribunal ( spelling ) if you dont get fuck all , give the cunt a good kick in, Of course with a balaclaver on, Good luck. i hate knobs like this pure pricks mate

[coalpoolwalla]

prick aint the word mate. beleave me if you seen him you would hit him.
hes about 4 foot tall and walks round like johnny concrete (any harder he'd set).

im in two minds whether to go up there now and sort him out just proove hes a div

[VexxedVTS]

Gotta stand up to him mate, tell him he can't speak to you like a piece of shit, or walk, don't do any overtime, stay late etc, that's doing him favours, don't do days you don't have to, fine line between belligerence, and standing up to him

:y:

Good luck matey.

[coalpoolwalla]

thats the thing...
if i dont work over when im asked to i get "well ive gave enough notice i can disipline you for not working over"
he says "its a customer requirement"

but everyday i get given shit and ive just about had enough of it.
theres blokes there who just assemble the job 8-9 pound an hour.

i can cut the job, weld the job, powder coat the job and assemble the job 6.30 an hour.
also i work the waterjet cutter.
theres only 2 people in the factory who can work it.
the other guys on £10 an hour.

hows that work?

the less u know the more ur payed????

In that case mate just walk in there tomorrow and punch him as hard as you possibly can in the face lol !
When i was at my factory pal, They had me on ITP ( car part tube measurements ) and CNC machine change overs... pretty complicated jobs Both of them.... A guy called Martin who was already on the job was gettin payed near enough £400 a week.... What did they give me for doing it ? .. Fuck all.. Not even a permanent Job.. they tried keeping me as a temp paying me 6.00 and hour, untill i basically told them Bollocks im not having it ... Stand up for yourself pal. Theres other jobs out there.. dont let dickheads try and mug you. Lifes too short to let some mug wth his cock up his bro's anal passage take the piss !

[coalpoolwalla]

like your thinking :).

nah on a serious note.... i cant loose my job but dont think i can take much more of his shit.
anyone want a trip to birmingham to sort him out.,.. ill pay loll

Im already here mate... lol im from stechford in Bham lol

[Psycho18]

how much you offering?:cool:

Serious note: Just leave! your skills will get you a job somewhere else. I've had enough here and just about ready to pack it in.

[Pieface]

Search for another job now, and when you get one, screw him over, and if it's his company screw that over.

[TomMartin]

have you thought about going to citizens advice or courts? you've got a lot more chance of getting it sorted out in your favour if you have some official backing. unfortunately your boss sounds like the kind of person who'd simply find an easy excuse for anything you throw at him - we've all met pricks like that! Good luck with it mate

[coalpoolwalla]

cheers guys.
im gonna go for my meeting tomorow and see what happens... i have got my notice written so if it doesnt go too well ill hand that over to him.

phoned some of the local nutters and there gonna sort it aswell (not the nice way though).

hopefully ill still have my job and he'll have a good enough belting to make him leave :P:P

[coalpoolwalla]

and ive phoned citizens advice and acas and basicly i cant do nowt without any evidence and tbh some of the lads at work wouldnt stick by your side.

talk to ya 1min talk about ya the next. you know what i mean :S

[tobomoto]

i had a similar experience at my first job. i got 2 verbal warnings and a written warning in the same week for the same thing after being told id have time to inprove. 1 warning was the dar after another one! it was obvious they wanted me out- they advertised my job a week before it all started! i was young and stupid so i didnt argue but if i was treated like that now id rip the company apart (legally speaking). just remember, evidence is your friend.

[McBain]

Search for another job now, and when you get one, screw him over, and if it's his company screw that over.

Best advice IMO. If you really cant hack it and it's full on bullying and not just hard banter, find another job (easier said than done, I know) and just walk.

[Mr_X]

Only one thing to do.

if you need a job, search like fuck.

Otherwise tomorrow

FUCK YOU.

[lt-saxslo]

i've got this at work also, some simple little twat acting up because he has nothing better to do. just think about your options before you make your move (i.e. probably best not to whack him if you dont have another job lined up lol)

[coalpoolwalla]

handed m notice in today whilst in the meeting.
the way he was saying thing it didnt look in my favour, so i said save the ink in your pen and time heres my notice.

but i asked him to put him out my missery and was he going to sack me anyway... he said more than likely.

but i bet him to it. hahaha.

and just been for a job interview and things are looking good.
they've took my size for overalls shoe size for new boots and told me what id be doing. just waiting for him to phone me back now :)

[-Frisby-]

Well done for doing it sooner than later. And who knows you could be in for a better job, better pay and most probs better collegues :)

[coalpoolwalla]

oh yeah deffinatly a better job.
better pay.
the blokes there seem sound.... i only went for a weld test and guy came upto me and asked if id like a warm drink while i waited for the manager.

just waiting for that phone call now... ;)

[-Frisby-]

Well good luck, and i hope everything works out. Still think you should have given your old boss a friendly gesture ;)

[lt-saxslo]

[wardy123]

theres a saying. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Take heed of those words, calm down and dont do anything stupid. Why do this when actually it may have just got you a better job...
