    Default Get ME Fired?!! - The Ultimate Payback

    Ok, you're going to tell me to drop this and let it go but I've been harrassed now for the past 5 months by this jerk at my day job who found out i"m a dancer.

    He's trying everything to sabotage me, tried to get me fired and today tried to pass off my hard work as his. I've had to change all my passwords because he somehow hacked my work account and last night I had a client call and ask me if I'm for real as someone in my office had told him I was a rip off artist and not to work with me.
    I searched the details the client gave me and found out that the phone number corresponded with the jerk in my office cellphone.

    I tried to tell the manager that he's devious but I'm the only girl on the job so apparently I never know what I'm talking about. If I don't do something now he's likely to get me fired.

    I need the ultimate payback to make him think twice. I need to know where on the web to go to post this guys phone number so he can get a zillion calls from escorts or something. I need to do SOMETHING now before he gets me get fired.
    Any ideas welcome.

    I understand that you are mad at this guy but the worst thing you could do would be to do something like that. The air is so much nicer up on the moral high ground.

    Therefore, if you can prove the trail back to his number and ask the client is they are prepared to make a statement that they were told this then you can take that evidence to your boss. Similarly any hacking or other sabotage then keep a record of when where and what it was because what you have are the grounds for a claim of sex discrimination. Make a note of things about the general culture of the organization, what is it that leads you to consider that you are less valued as a female employee, etc.

    The last bit makes you look incredibly unprofessional, gives HIM the moral high ground, and gets your butt in mucho trouble.

    My advice would be to DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT, DOCUMENT every transgression this guy has pulled on you. Get all your evidence and ducks in a row and than make personnel/human resources aware of it.

    THEN have a letter from a lawyer with a great reputation for work place harassment suites drop a letter to who ever handles legal in your place of business.

    They know you have the evidence. They know you have a winning lawyer who knows that area of law well.

    If you have your documentation in order they'll listen then, and listen good.
    Fiat justitia, pereat mundus.


    BTW, while we are on the subject, is it needed to point out the obvious: That it is just possible that if you are willing to judge the worth of someone simply by what you read on a website about them it might say a whole hell of a lot more about you than it says about the person you are judging?

    While i have never done this, you could post his number on a fake craigslist dating ad (with him being a female looking for some action, of course). Then watch as his phone blows up. He will figure out that someone did it but won't know who if he is genuinely as asshole who makes lots of people angry. Perhaps he will then be a nicer person.

    I agree ^^ don't do that. It is really unprofessional. Take legal action or explain to him that your life outside of the workplace is none of his business and if it bothers him so much then he should go see a shrink. You don't bug him about his outside life or judge him and you don't need his words clouding your creativity. That really is a horrible man, and I hope you do document all of this that he has done and build all the evidence up high and prove it. Make copies of everything for back ups in case he or anyone decides to sabotage any of it. I don't think you could put a restraining order on him but I may be wrong in this case due to all of the harassment you have been through.

    I've told him he's being a jerk sooo many times already and to get over himself.
    Today I told the manager about his latest crap to which he said he'd talk with him and find out what's happening. He just basically sent him an email with a hand slapping which of course made me so mad I worked like a demon.
    Tony Robbins is right. He said you should harness your anger and use it constructively because anger makes you work harder.
    The 1st time he got me this mad I closed 3 deals and made $5000 in one day. Today I closed 2 and made $2200.
    Maybe I should p**p him off some more and send him a thank you note instead!!

    Thanks for stopping me doing something stupid girls. I'll just go to work tomorrow and dominatrix some custie to let off steam.

    First your tormenter did a huge corporate SIN. He told a customer that someone in customer service was a CROOK. In effect. Businesses will NEVER do that (crooks are fired not just singled out to customers), and that alone should get him in plenty of hot water. Your tormenter is also STUPID. That works in your favor if you deal with it right. You need to get incontrovertible evidence about this and report it to HR. Your boss seems like one from the old boys school and if so he is not to be trusted.

    Second work with supervision, not some bigger business no-no to the tormenter. He needs to be reprimanded or fired.

    I hate that crap too. Good luck!
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.

    I've worked with jerks like this. In fact I had this same problem at my former job. First, like mentioned, I'd document everything. Then I'd go to your boss. If your boss doesn't help, I'd go to either the boss' boss, or EEO/HR in your company. If none of that works, let it be known you'll go to the EEO outside of your company. Even if you have no intentions of doing that, they'll be scared. Companies know harassment is not looked upon lightly.

    Don't harass this guy back. He sounds like a guy who'll make it worse for you. He might be able to get you fired for this (even though you are the victim). It might hurt future jobs.

    Can you file a sexual harassment claim against him? Write in the claim that you turned him down when he came on to you romantically and now he is making up all kinds if lies about you (this will cover up your dancing job) and is sabotaging your clients and the company by extension.

    Consider changing clubs that you dance at or taking a break from dancing for a while. Oh, and save everything. Make notes about what happens when, save emails and voice mails. Document every incident, so that your case is much stronger than his.


    Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!

    If he told a client that you're a rip off artist, you could sue him for slander.

    If he was hacking into your work account, that should be grounds for termination. Same with lying about you to a client. I hope things work out for you.
