What is the name of your state? CA
Hi,
I have been working in a small company for almost 3 years. Because of all the stress and harrasment at my work i have taken almost 30 days of in the last year. Basically i get harrased every week about drugs. And also about my sex life etc. I will give you an example. A coworker comes up to me and asked me if i was "going to do drugs on the weekend." i was asked if i do "pole dancing as a hobby, scince you must be a prositute".
And another guy from the previous month embarrasess me by asking me if my otherhalf is good between the sheets (in bed), Infront of the boss as well as infront of other co workers when we where celebrating anothers employees birthday. And another co worker asked me if i did cocaine on the weekend twice.
Asking me what i do on weekends , where my TV is situated in the house. Where i am going to lunch and who with. To the point of what i eat everyday. if i wear skimpy clothes behind closed doors.
Another problem is that one sales employee feels that he has the right to touch me when he pleases even though i tell him NOT to. One time i was sitting at my desk doing work and this male coworker stands behind me as gives me a shoulder massage (i am female and engaged and he knows this). I told him not touch me again and i pushed him away. Previously he tried to grab my arm and pull me close to him when i was in the hall way. I told him to stop and walked away. He also tried to smell my perfume only to look down my top.
My tasks where also reduced to the point where all i did everyday was make phone calls to clients (mind numbing phone calls 200 - 400) and then when theres a job to be completed at the last minute 4.40 pm they pass the job on to me , and then one of the ladies come over to have a chat with me, when shes knows that i am busy trying to finnish my work. So i dont finnish it on time. I dont get paid over time when working after hours.
Also when i first started working at this job. After my lunch break my boss asked me is i had "****ed my "other half" in the bushes" on my lunch break. This suprised me as i didnt think bosses talked to thier employees like that .
Also they hired this young girl who came from a mental insitution (because of her drug habbits). I am not trained to work with a mental patient. (in my oppinon as a worker i do not know why the phsyciatrist let her out! )
She passes alot of wind (Farting) continously and the smell made me throw up every day, she wold stand up from her chair walk over to my desk and fart in my direction. I explained to my supervisor that she dose this and she pasically told me that she thinks its a one of thing. But it happened EVERY DAY.
Everyday i would smell her fart on my clothes, i would drive home thowing up, i couldnt sit next to her while training her. Also there was another time I was training her and she put her hands in her pants scratched her crotch and then touched her mouse. Then she would ask me to show her using her mouse how to do the job. This is where i ran out of the office crying because i couldnt take it any more.
On top of that this girl talks readlly loudly on purpose and places her self in your personal space when talking to you. One time in her mental state she jumped at me threanting to stab me with the pen. A
Also when i trained her i was told by her that my manager "told her to do it differently and i am doing the job wrong" everytime i trained her on something. Also when i am trainning her i am disrespected by her because she makes personal phone calls in the middle of my explanations , jumps up to make coffee to waste me time .Not only that i have to repet things to her over and over again.
My supervisor also gave me incorrect information on pricings which i found out later from another co worker. I also found that my work was being sabotaged (information changed when i had SAVED the file before i leave). Another time i made a mistake in a document and she said in a soft voice "its not working because your to **** in the head" . And calling me a bitch in a soft voice because i told one client that i helped my supervisor complete a job.
Do i have a case as i feel i have been harrased by my workers , and been abuse phsyically. mentally and verbally by people in this organisation. I quit this job one month ago due to depression from being there and didnt state this in the resignation letter. Should i sue this company ? Considering that all of the 4 managers where in the office at the time this all happened and didnt do anything about it ?
