Getting Even: Retaliation

It is like this:  

Just because someone was not fired, that the lies told about them were "unsubstantiated", and now being forced to work and being repeatedly told to stop harassing people...... does not mean being picked on.  It is just working in an ethical workplace.  It is about getting along and being a "Team-Player".  It is about being a decent human being.

No one wants to hate another person, but on the same hand, no one wants to work with someone who is nice to their face and then goes behind their back and attempts to get them in trouble with the "bosses".  

It is very difficult to "like" someone when, one is working hard and that someone comes out, leans on the desk & chats all about their personal problems while watching the other person work and not offering to help (especially when it is a part of the job duties to help the staff).

It is even more difficult to hear a person whine about how difficult their life is, how much pain they are in, how they just can't help and then see them go lifting heavy loads when no one is supposedly looking. Especially after  just having refused to help someone who is extremely busy & in need of help.

It is really bad when after being "innocently" questioned, 1/2 of the staff's 4 year-old work schedules (which meet the needs of the workplace) are changed by force (due to a Snitch-Baby) but then the same S.B. turns around & schedules their staff as their staff desires, ignoring the workplace directive & needs of the workplace, thus causing the workplace to be short-staffed.

People know what is going on, they are not blind, they are not stupid.....  They know treachery when it has been perpetrated upon them and they know by Whom!  Being false to someone's face after hurting them, does not make for a comfortable work environment, nor does it make friends.

We ALL Have Pain, We All Have Sorrow, We ALL Struggle to live this life, We All Have difficulty in our lives. So then, continually whining about how miserable of a life, how sick, how poor one is does not make people "friends". It makes for disgust.  Some have the decency to keep trials & tribulations private and not wave them like a banner. Pity is not friendship..... 

So when it turns against someone, then bullying and retaliation are NOT Acceptable responses!  It makes for a more hate-filled work environment.... directed back at the perpetrator. Thus everyone is uncomfortable and unhappy.

Have a problem? Look in the mirror.
