Dear Doug: Workplace Bullies
AUGUST 2004
Dear Doug,
I was bullied by two co-workers for several years in my office, which serves law enforcement. The co-workers threw objects at me, slammed doors in my face, "accidentally"ran into me on many occasions and stole personal items. Management refused to take the necessary action to end the abuse.
