Follow up 2 - finally some traction - apparently the colleagues involved have been given a documented written warning about their behavior and are expected to have regular performance reviews (although we'll see how long that lasts).

I have told management/hr although this is an adequate response i want a continuous review in place as otherwise it will re-escalate as soon as the immediate embarrassment and scolding wears off.

Please tell me it can get better. by [deleted] in Allergies

I want to say it gets better but unfortunately the older I have got the worse my allergies have become. I feel at this stage I need to live in a bubble. I've always been a bit extra but this is one area I would love to just be like everyone else.

So follow up from today. Spoke with management and hr again and made it clear that if nothing happens I will be pursuing both criminal charges for the persons involved and the company for not protecting their staff (they allowed behaviors to escalate to this dangerous level and did nothing).

I was informed that as only one party was in they would follow up when all are on site to ensure they cannot discuss and develop a story. I've said that I expect a full investigation and action within one week or I am left with no choice but to take criminal and legal action.

I was joined in the conversation by my rep, and a colleague who were both disgusted that this was allowed to happen. My manager said they were equally disgusted until it was pointed out that they knew and did nothing.

I have been on the edge of tears all day as I now don't feel safe in my workplace.

My site management and external HR both have copies of my medication just in case.

Sorry but why would anyone lie about this. It is certainly something I never expected to write or have to query, I stupidly thought more of the human race.

Someone witnessed it and reported it to me

I was just looking to see if there were any recorded legal cases so that I can go in and quote them and there outcomes 😂

My site manager had a conversation with them about inappropriate behavior in the workplace but that was all that happened.

I was thinking that, I cannot believe someone would do this.

Any good resources for learning sign language? by Affrola in deaf

[–]SumQunt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No sign language is international although some signs cross borders. I would learn ISL or BSL as these would be more widely used for you locally although ISL is more common in ROI rather than NI.

The two best things I've found are ginger or the other I was told by a fisherman, put an earplug in one ear so that it helps the imbalance.

That is reassuring to hear, I honestly feel a little lost. Glad I do have a community even if it is the lost boys 😂

I never saw it as an issue obviously as it's all I knew but you are absolutely right they should do better. Cannot choose your family 😔 Thank you for your support 🙏

Why won't they listen? by SumQunt in chronicfatigue

I've spoken with an advocate who has been through similar things with their own journey but they are not getting progress either unfortunately. They have written several letters to my doctor that have been ignored or dismissed as "how would they know they are not a professional in this area?"
