Something went down at work

Post Reply New Topic

This past Saturday, I came into work like I normally do. I sit down at the end of the counter to eat my dinner when my coworker, we'll call him "M" tells me:

"T(our manager), came in and left you a note this morning. Read it." I read the note, and was immediately pissed off. It basically read that if I didn't get these certain tasks done by tonight I was up for termination. So, I go into the back room and begin to vent. I knew right then and there that T wouldn't have done this. T usually would talk to you if you had a problem.

Fast forward to that evening.

J, sees that I am upset (My boss, manager, and J know I have AS.) I hand her the note. She reads it, and is pissed off. "That's not T's handwriting. Look in the Tab book. See, M's handwriting matches the note. I'm going to check the camera to see what M did all day. Sure enough, at 1 PM J sees him writing something and posting it where I saw it when I came in.

The kicker? M even forged the Managers signature. You read that correctly. FORGED the signature. So, tonight I go in to buy some smokes and M scowls me down. "You're burning some bridges. Take your cigarettes and monster and get the hell out." This guy hates people who are not like him. Typical NT.

I know a lot of people who are like that. They chew you up and spit you out. I remember going to school with a couple of people like that, as a matter of fact. I was in the same regular classes with one of them between grades 2 and the early weeks of grade 7. The second character that I went to school with treated me the same way between grades 8 and 10. They thought that they were God's gift to man and the first character who gave me a hard time accused me of soiling myself when I didn't even need that type of protection back than. The guy who gave me a hard time in Elementary school was a typical NT, who only liked people who were the same as him. The second one had a learning disability and he used that as a license to be a jackass. Pardon my language. The irony is that he was in a programme that was more supportive than the one that I was in, through High school.

I know your pain.

He should of got fired for that

hm... did you tell your manager about this?

not only is it pathetic, but it's borderline illegal to forge signatures...

You should talk to your managers and tell them you're having a problem with this guy (or more accurately, that he's having a problem with you). They either need to mediate between the two of you or tell him to back off.

I don't know how things work in your country, but in mine: forging a manager's signature to harass another colleague? Disciplinary hearing, at the least. There's minor office catfighting and there's fraud and harrassment.

He got a talking to, but wasn't fired.

It's a shame really. I don't hate this guy, even though he won't let me sit down inside the store and smoke a cigarette and have a Monster. He'll let everyone else do it, but me. So, tonight I stood outside in the 2 degree temps and smoked and drank my monster. I asked if I could sit inside and drink it, but he said and I quote; "No, I don't trust your ass to sit in here. From now on, you'll smoke and drink your monster outside. I hate you, and I really don't ever want to see your face in here again."

In the past when I used to talk to him he would say some really hateful things. When I asked for his opinion on autistics he said something along the lines of "They (autistics) are nothing but a burden on this society. They have a fake disease, and they need to be eradicated." I could hear the hatred in this guys voice. I have a picture of him:



When I first met the dude; I thought he was cool. Then he did this behind my back. He became a person on a power trip. "He who has power, is afraid to lose it."-Creedonian Proverb.

there are a lot of dicks in the workplace, I actually prefer the ones that are nasty to my face though

At least I tried to ask if I could sit inside. He would have none of it. So, like I said I went outside and had my monster. I think it's a bit inhumane to have to sit out there in the cold, but I really don't want to start a war in there.

If I was you I would hold on to that note you might be able to one day use it in court against him if he escalates the harrassment you can show that there was a whole series of abuse against you. You also need to prove that the management knew about it did not do enough especially if they know about your disability. Don't be afraid to sick some lawyers on him or your boss if they continue to laugh off or ignore the abuse they are handing out to you. I kick myself everyday for not doing it at the resteraunt I worked at I had hard evidence against my tormentors and did not sue them for the abuse they dealt out to me. Instead I did stupid immature stuff like spit in their food and drinks when they left them unattended. It felt good to do those things watching them eat or drink with whatever I spiked their stuff with but they never learned the lesson it is not right to torment someone for being different. You owe it to the next guy who could be tormented by this guy in the future buy sueing his pants off its the only way @ssholes learn to either hurt them or cause them great finacial lost. Even if he has no money you could have his checks garnished. Each time he cashes his check he will be reminded being a jerk will cost him in the long run.

You should go to the head-manager about it & say you are being discriminated against a disability by that guy & mention a lawsuit. If others can do that stuff & you cant; it's discrimination & the company would not want the bad publicity or the gov & courts involved

He should be fired. Also if he's just a co-worker, then what gives him any authority in directing where and what you can do ? What gives him the leverage to tell you to eat and smoke inside and not ? You should stay inside next time and just ignore him what ever he does or says, and report him to the top head. Also , you should demand he be reprimanded and report it to the Better Business Bureau.

He sounds like a frightened little chicken trying to show it's motcho side.

Complain to the boss and show him the copy of that letter he wrote to you and you should get J to say his part that but discrimination though, it's not fair and that would be prejudice of him if he doesn't even know you.

I assume he is new?
