From discerning through people trying to bend rules in their favor to avoiding responsibility, to legitimate claims of harmful bullying situations where the employee is compromised, abused and not only suffers in the moment, but carries it often for many years.<BR/><BR/>And just for the record, there are many ‘Grown-ups’ as you mention, that are capable, competent people who are blind-sided by workplace bullying and often do not have the immediate means to leave right away. By the way, why should they have to back down, often losing a well deserved pension, seniority, their community etc?<BR/><BR/>Becoming fully aware is key. Stopping workplace bullying is everyone’s responsibility, even if it is not you that is being bullied.<BR/><BR/>****************************************<BR/><BR/>IT IS EVERYONE'S RESPONSIBILITY TO STOP WORKPLACE BULLYING ....<BR/><BR/>Just do as much or as little as you can... it's fine to walk away... but if you can stay... and challenge...if only for a bit... then great...<BR/><BR/>What about you Sally? Are you with us? Are you going to walk the talk that you did in THE?<BR/><BR/>Aphra BehnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
