I cant believe this is something I am bringing up less than a month into my first job. I have a colleague who has been hostile since my first day and yesterday she decided to scream at me, in front of an audience for being new and not knowing how to do a task. I have had zero training, apart from my own research. I brought Management into what happened and all they said was, I was to blame and I should've known how to complete the task. This is just how the other employees behaves.

Do you have an HR department? Not knowing how to do a task is one issue. But that kind of treatment is another. No business should be pandering to someone who is unhinged, having outbursts, and can’t control themselves. I would 1000% be in HR about it.

I am so bugged about this, I've been trying my best adjusting into this new environment, with new demands. I dont even have similar voluntary experience! So, why would I know how to do a task I've never done. And why am I the one to blame??

Honestly there are bullies everywhere. Next time it happens don’t loose your temper but be firm. I would say “I’m not sure who you think your talking to but you will Not speak to me like that that. Speak and treat me the way you would like to be treated!” It usually resolves the issue. Good luck!!

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?
