Hmmm. A little promotion for a subject that doesn't have enough exposure. Perhaps a few of you here can relate. If so - spread the word.
Warning: this is a little depressing. :( Sorry. Came across this Facebook page after doing a bit of research on the topic of "workplace mobbing": http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bellingham-WA/Healthy-Workplace-Bill/338636856649 Seems over 37% of the American Workforce are subjected to "workplace bullying or mobbing" which includes: [list] Mental Harassment Yelling Put downs Demotions for no reason Write-ups for no reason No credit for great work done No promotions when there should be Etc etc [/list] [b]Some Resources:[/b] http://www.mediate.com/articles/davenport.cfm http://www.workplacebullying.org/ http://www.workplacebullying.org/research/WBI-Zogby2007Survey.html http://www.bullyonline.org/workbully/mobbing.htm http://www.mobbing-usa.com/index.html So as common as this is, I am AMAZED at how little people have joined the effort or spoken out about this. I'm not normally a "lobbying" type of person, but sheesh. Seems this needs to be spread around a little. Apparently the US is the last of the democracies that have any sort of federal bill protecting the mental health and integrity of workers in the workforce. Anyway.
