i feel sick...

So i have to go tp work today. Actually my manager signed me up for a double shift without bothering to ask me. I hate going. The girls i work with are awful. I get sick thinking about it. I just want to hide in the bathroom and cry. They (lead by their ringleader) harass me, push me, threaten me, throw away my paperwork that i am responsible for. I keep getting told im going to end up in the hospital, that i really need a "nosejob", that i better watch where i park my car. I have told my manager repeatedly and all she says is i am overly dramatic. Whenever she talks to this girl (33yo) and her clique they always make up a story and make me look like im lying. I tell my manager that they say this mess directly to my face. Its not like its thru the grapevine. I have been dealing with this since Easter. Im looking for another job. I cant just quit without having something else lined up. Hubby had surgery a month ago and doesnt return to work for another week. Before i got pregnant i was so stressed that my hair was falling out, my stomach was upset all the time, i was shaking alot. I just cant feel like this now for the safety of my baby.

I agree with all these people. And if it doesn't work. Just quit. Seriously. You'll survive. You can apply for hospital charity for the medical expenses. And just live very frugally until you can get another job. That sounds like less stress than your work. It just doesn't seem worth it.

Hey Momma, this is my first baby and if it wasn't bad for me at work already, the nasty talking people at my job made me feel miserable and this was many months prior...I'm a strong woman but now I have a baby in my belly...I have made complaints to management and even human resources and nothing was fixed, even when I was threatened at work...luckily I worked there long enough to leave and receive short term disability...the stress was making me sick...someone even got a hold of my fiancé and told him the baby wasn't his and that was when I had it and left cause that is not worth the health of me and my innocent baby...in the end management didn't care so I'm not going back...I plan on getting a better job after my baby is born and graduate with an associates in 2016 and all the while those losers will still be working there...I didn't lose this battle and you shouldn't have to go through the same...it's jealousy that makes people ugly...you have what they want and could never have... Your baby is your life and you will know when enough is enough...keep looking for a new job until you find one but your health isn't worth any nasty mouthed peoples bs...you'll know what to do...I certainly did when push came to shove...it's your time to be happy and believe me when I say that you are going to have a better life than any of them and the funny thing is, they know it too...that's why they are frightened of you and why they are jealous and intimidated by you...they're nothing and you are and have a beautiful baby on the way...you've got this...hang in there momma

Thank you so much for all the support. My mom told me as a kid that when people act like that its because they feel threatened. I have no clue what she could possibly feel threatened about. I dont have anything fancy . The only thing I can think of is we were supposed to get married around the same time. I went to the jutice of the peace (what we wanted) and she postponed hers (supposedly) so she could have a huge wedding at her grandmothers church. She has an expensive dress, bridesmaids, gorgeous decorations picked out. Im the one who should be jealous. Anyways HR is open tomorrow. Im going to leave early enough to talk to somebody. I think you have to make an appointment. Will do that if i have to. I also a # posted to call our support centet when you want to anonymously report stuff thats happening at work. I wrote it down but left it in my locker.

Most people have already said it, but definitely call human resources & also tell them about your manager's reactions and lack of efforts in the matter. Then, it wouldn't hurt to also contact whoever is in the position above your manager. Tell them you are pregnant, you not only fear for yourself but also your child now, that if something isn't changed very soon that you will be leaving for a new job, and that if measures are not taken you will be bringing law enforcement in for any physical harassment that happens after this point. Don't let them get the best of you. I hope things get better for you! That **** should not be happening in a business atmosphere!

Yes talk to your human resources manager and file a report with them tell them if it isn't resolved you will go to the police. And also when writing your harassment complaint make sure you get a copy so they don't say you never went in etc. It is their responsibility to handle these types of things.

You need to talk to human resources. That sort of behaviour is unacceptable and, while it depends in how big your company is and who runs it... Almost any company would immediately address and put a stop to it, unless its a little family owned place where there isn't anyone higher in charge.

That's harassment and if they lay a finger on you its assault. Since your pregnant if anything happens to your baby they would be charged for that as well. I'd call the police.

We are not allowed to have our phones on the floor. Casino rules. It *****. On my lunch break now. Its been horrible so far. I had to slip away to the bathroom to cry twice. Im scared im going to make myself sick. She tried to trip me when i picked up my bank this morning. I keep telling the manager to rewind the cameras. But then again i am "overdramatic". All i can do i hope and hope for karma to kick butt. I used to be friends with these girls. I gave the one a ride home from work a few times when her car got towed. Another girl and i used to go to the club all the time. I dont know what even happened to make it all change.
