Specifically:



What to do if you're bullied at work

Employers have a 'duty of care' to their employees and this includes dealing with bullying at work. There are measures you can take if you're being bullied.

Get advice

Speak to someone about how you might deal with the problem informally. This might be:

* an employee representative like a trade union official
* someone in the firms human resources department
* your manager or supervisor

Some employers have specially trained staff to help with bullying and harassment problems theyre sometimes called 'harassment advisers'. If the bullying is affecting your health, visit your GP.
Talk to the bully

The bullying may not be deliberate. If you can, talk to the person in question, who may not realise how their behaviour has been affecting you. Work out what to say beforehand. Describe whats been happening and why you object to it. Stay calm and be polite. If you don't want to talk to them yourself, ask someone else to do so for you.

Keep a written record or diary

Write down details of every incident and keep copies of any relevant documents.

Making a formal complaint

This is the next step if you cant solve the problem informally. To do this you must follow your employer's grievance procedure, or if one doesnt exist you can use the statutory grievance procedure.

There are also some useful links about grievance procedures, etc.

Under no circumstance let yourself be provoked into violence against this prick.

oh sorry I thought this was serious, but I see by your poll options that it really isn't :dabs:

[bunny67]

oh it is serious but the last option is there because i may be over reacting as i spoke to my mate and she said dnt worry thats how chefs are

[100%]

wrong, chefs should not be like that, unless you destroyed their food.

[Barbarossa]

It's the Gordon Ramsay syndrome :dabs:

But I think people have a right not to be shouted and sworn at in the workplace :dry:

[Cabalo]

is he gay? or looks like?

[manker]

Chefs aren't 'like that' any more than all plumbers are cunts all civil servants are lazy all telesales staff are thick as fuck all accountants are boring.

Some chefs just think they can get away with being obnoxious because of that gay Scotch twunt Ramsey.

Don't put up with it. The next time he goes all menstrual on you, ask him (in a loud voice) if he's only like that to over-compensate for his tiny penis.

[Something Else]

He's bang out of order. You could get compensations and stuff for not going to work. :smilie4:

Starting a new job can be hard, especially when you are starting at the bottom of the totem pole. If the job is easily replaceable, find a new one. Pricks are everywhere, meeting one coming right in the door and knowing I'd have to work with them every night... well, I don't think I'd want an assault charge on my record. That's the only way I can see it ending if it turned into a long term every day struggle.

Smile, and hit the want ads if it more than you can take.

...the other day he shouted at me and threw some plates at the wall next to me...
I pick up one of those plate shards and cut the bitch then ask'im "How do you like that, motherfucker" then turn on everyone else in the room.

:angry:

[Hairbautt]

:) Just kidding. I voted for the second option.

[SAM]

i hope you find another job soon
i guess you need to be patient and stick with this job for the time being

[Aaxel21]

I voted for #2 you shouldn't have to take that. I would not hit him either, I don't know how laws are over there but if you hit him in the US he could sue you. I would just step in front of the plate next time he throws one and sue him for all the carrots hes worth. Or sue him for workplace harassment. But I know if you walk without having another job time are going to get harder as the money depletes.

[Skweeky]

I want to point out here that Ramsey was born in Glasgow but was actually raised in England. Also, he's a hun

You can't hold him against the Scots

[enoughfakefiles]

Didn't that marko pierre white fellow use to make him cry at wurk?

[thebazzla]

try and stick it out bunny, he has obviously watched too much tv and his over inflated ego has got the better of him i bet he is a short arse. if it was me that he threw the plate at well it would be a long time before he tried that trick again :happy:

[FatBob]

hit yourself , hit yourself hard like the way edward norton does in fight club ?

remember ?

[RoSsoNeRI]

Stop moaning woman!! n take it like a man!! lol...nahh jk

I would go with number 2.....if ur new there then u should just quit. Also y don't u complain to the manager or something if he really gettin on ya nerves??
