Jabba the Hutt: A story of bullying

mbaker566 · June 2015

take it to hr immediately. this should not affect your visa as you have done nothing wrong

me, I don't suffer bullies. I've been bullied but one day I stood up for a friend and ripped the bully a new one. Bullies make my blood boil.

and you are not Jabba at all. those girls need to learn their star wars references because they obviously meant Princess Leia.

If you are falling into your old ED habits, please reach out to your old team or see if an OA group might provide the support you needs.

And lots of hugs and love. you are doing great with your goals and you are a beautiful woman

So sorry OP, my heart goes out to you. As hard as it is to be the victim of bullying, and as deep as those wounds cut, try to remember that they are saying those things about you because they are unhappy with themselves. Happy, well adjusted people don't engage in this nasty behavior. That said, there is no excuse and they should be ashamed of themselves for saying untrue things. Hold your head up high and please don't regress into your ED. Good luck.

I'm not sure if anybody checks back in on these things but I wanted to:

1) Apologise for not thank you all at the time for your kind words. It was a horrible time for me so I just couldn't come back here emotionally.
2) Thank you all belatedly, your messages meant a lot at a time when I had so little support.
3) Let you all know that the primary bully got the sack. Unfortunately, the catalyst was not my HR complaint but his performance (though it probably was factored in to the whole thing)
4) Tell you all that I did not regress or let my ED take control
5) Lastly, share that good things do happen to good people to balance out experiences like these. A client recently gave me the "tap on the shoulder" & asked me to interview with their CEO about setting up & running their product division - a job I thought I could only dream about. The way HR handled the situation at my current job made it even easier to accept & I start my new challenge very soon.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH.
