One of my previous managers bullies me at work. He takes digs and jabs at me, and make it sound funny but effectively it’s uncomfortable.he said “we all knew you were looking for new jobs during Covid because you commented “interested” on a LinkedIn post and it came up on our feeds.” He said this in front of current manager & laughed it off.

Truth is, I never did that because I was never looking for a job. However to be double sure? I checked my past LinkedIn activity too.. How to handle this?

If he is spreading lies about you it is pretty serious. I personally would touch base via email with my current manager and also inform them that you are feeling uncomfortable calling him out. It is just to make sure that they are vigilant around you both and in case you need to go to HR in future they kind of can back you up.

Definitely bring it up to your manager in a sidenote email or ?meeting?. They should understand and be on your side

I hope you have a good relationship with current manager to address situation. My experience is that I can’t find anyone who will answer emails or their voicemails to respond to concerns about intimidation and threats in the workplace. Good luck.

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Good Evening My Fellow Christian Educators! I realize it is going to be challenging for me this year...with so many of my students performing below grade level expectations in ELA and MATH and also ensuring that all students follow the COVID Guidelines in the classroom. I still feel hopeful that God will bless me with the knowledge on how to effectively impact each one of those kids. Let's remember to keep all educators lifted in prayer this year.
Have a wonderful school year!!
God Bless All❤️

So, I just fired my first employee as a manager and I'm heartbroken. He was a great, great person but after 6 months on a PIP he just wasn't cutting it skills-wise. I know he was the provider of the household and his wife didn't have a job since she was raising three young ones. Needless to say, I had to take off because I felt terrible, sick to my stomach. How do you deal with firing guilt? Is that a thing? I can't help but feeling like I did something wrong.
