[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 679517, member: 18958"] CB he is deliberately harassing you. I agree with Insane, if there is a union ask your rep for help. A few months ago you had a thread where there was a discussion about benefits. If you have workers compensation you can file a claim. You are getting sick. It sounds like you are becoming physically ill, and this is exacerbating pre-existing conditions. If you are mentally ill, you have protections under the ADA, Americans With Disabilities Act. You have done this job for 10 years, and done so satisfactorily. You must fight back. I would ask for an accommodation. I would go to my doctor and I would ask for specific accommodations to your work duties: This way there will be a record of his harassment and make him have to defend his actions. He will not stop. He is stupid and he is a bully. You have to fight back. This will only get worse. You can see where this is going. There are numerous kinds of accommodations you can request: you can google ADA protections and harassment of mentally ill. You can see what kinds of accommodations other people have asked for. This sadist boss is assuming you will not fight back and he will force you out. He is assuming that you will not fight for yourself. I cannot tell you what to do, but I would tell you what I would do. I would fight for myself. There is no earthly way that a non-spanish speaking should be forced to call the 80 percent of parents who are spanish-speaking. I mean what are you supposed to say, after Hola? I would use this thread to ask for other's input in making a plan. You cannot continue to permit that this man beat up on you. That is what I think. He is. Because he is picking on you and bullying you. That he is doing so, is illegal. You have protections under ADA. I would fight for myself. To the extent that you keep allowing him to do this, you are buying in. Please do not. All of us care about you. We do not want you to have to go and hide. If you make known what he is doing, there is a reasonable chance he will get in trouble. My sister bullied an employee of hers. She worked for a university. Unfortunately the employee she bullied filed a civil rights lawsuit. You could do the same thing. There are agencies you can find online that help disabled people who are harassed on the job. When my sister got herself in this mess, the university turned against her. Let us all help make a plan. Your job right now is to go and find that other thread. There was a lot of good information on it. None of this is your fault. Remember that. You are a wonderful person. But there are bad mean people in the workplace and the world. We need to fight for ourselves. Do that for us. We are standing right there beside you. COPA [/QUOTE]
