I work for a state agency and I have had and continue
having some issues with some employees and supervisors I
don’t know where to begin or what to do I have a lot of
documentation on everything that has happened and I am
still documenting I hope someone here can shed some light
on what I can do. I am just going to give a brief idea
because if I wrote or explained everything I could write a
novel. I have been harassed intimidated being yelled at
have had to deal with violent behavior towards me and
other employees by an employee and also feel like some
employees and supervisors are retaliating towards me
because of a statement I gave on a sexual harassment
investigation on a female employee. Well here is some of
whets going on there is an employee that has slandered my
name and my wife’s he told other employees at work that he
came over to my house and that my wife was black and blue
from me beating on her, he has also tried to break up my
marriage by telling another female that is not an employee
that I was not married he also put dish soap in my work
boots that were left at work over night. He has told other
employees that I was bi-sexual. This employee was also
accused by a female employee of sexually harassing her
stalking her and threatening her and I have documentation
on that in fact the female employee was also told by this
male employee that the only reason he was working here was
to make her life miserable and there was a big
investigation and all they did to this employee was slap
him on the wrist. And the is suppose to be zero tolerance
on that kind of behavior he harassed this female at work
and after work and other people wrote statements on the
fact and they did not do nothing about it. The female
employee even talked to the local state police about him
stalking her after work this employee has also told me if
he gets fired or if he quits he is taking me with him.
This guy is real jewel I have a lot more things this guy
has done but like I said I could write a book. Another
employee has violent behavior and still nothing done this
employee brought a gun to work not once but twice and that
also is against company policy big time and the first time
he brought a gun he started flashing it around saying he
was going to go postal this guy is very violent and very
intimidating he has threatened to kill his kids on the
phone he is always talking about how easy it is to kill
someone and get away with it he brags on having illegal
guns at home this guy is a gun freak, he has made violent
comments towards me and a few employees. In fact there was
a business guy in the community that was found dead by
police at his place of business and this employee and him
had a partnership on a business in town and that went sour
and this employee made threats to this guy on the phone
about going to his place of business and killing him in
fact he was even on the suspect list after the murder but
I guess the police didn’t really know the facts and the
threats that were made by this guy in fact after the
murder this guy knew everything about the crime scene and
what was taken and what wasn’t and I also feel I should
talk to the police about this guy because im sure I know
more info then the police knew when they questioned him
but im afraid of this guy im afraid I might be hurt or
even killed or have my home burned this guy is really
physco he is very intimidating and yet again the state
agency does nothing. One of our main bosses once made a
comment that we better to glad to be where were at because
that’s as far as we are going to get and I feel that
chances of promotion or advancement are not going to
happen because I gave a statement on the harassment case
and I don’t think they liked that. I tried to transfer
because I am afraid of these employees and I was denied in
fact my father was very ill with heart failure and was on
his death bed and I put in for a hardship transfer and was
denied I was told there was no openings where I wanted to
go but then again another employee in another town puts in
for a transfer because her mother was ill and that
transfer was granted and there was no opening where she
went. I also twisted my back at work once and I caught
nothing but hell from risk management I was told I got
hurt elsewhere and not at work well when I went to the
workman’s comp. Dr. before I arrived there; the Dr. even
knew what was wrong risk management had already talked to
him and the Dr.. Told me I didn’t get hurt at work also
between the Dr. and risk management I felt they were
calling me a liar and they had both diagnosed me before
they even saw me or examined me and when I asked the Dr.
if he mind if I got a second opinion he walked out the
room in a rage and slammed the door open and then slammed
the door behind him he called my employer telling them
that and I fell all this goes back to retaliation well
this is just a brief idea there is a whole more and I have
documentation on everything just don’t know what to do and
im afraid to do anything. This state agency has some
serious management issues most anyone in the district has
some stories on the way management takes care of issues I
think they are endangering life’s and health issues by not
taking care of issues so I not only have to deal with bad
employees but also bad management. I feel threatened and
intimidated
