Workplace Bullying

WORKPLACE BULLYING, like childhood bullying, is the tendency of individuals or groups to use persistent aggressive or unreasonable behavior against a co-worker or subordinate.

Workplace bullying can include such tactics as:
  • Verbal
  • Nonverbal
  • Psychological
  • Physical abuse
  • Humiliation
This type of aggression is particularly difficult because, unlike the typical forms of school bullying, workplace bullies often operate within the established rules and policies of their organization and their society. Bullying in the workplace is in the majority of cases reported as having been perpetrated by management and takes a wide variety of forms. Bullying can be covert or overt but it's always bad.

Bulling is wrong, unethical and just plain stupid
Bullying does not help people
It makes victims feel small
So why do it?
 
People bully to make themselves feel big to make people feel small
It is uneccesary
It is cruel
 
Bullying is not just a child's issue, it's everyone's issue
 
Bullying does not just happen in the school yard it happens in the classrooms, the park, the home the workplace
 
....Yes even adults must deal with bullying!
 
It's a simple fact
 
STOP THE ABUSE
STOP THE HARASSMENT
 
STOP THE BULLYING!

Approximately 1 in 5 female high school students reports being physically and/or sexually abused by dating partner... 
Domestic Abuse is a form of bullying. The abuse does not have to be physical, it can also be emotional. These women need to know they are worth more than what their partners are doing to them.
 
 
 
 
THINK before you decide to judge someone.
THINK before you speak.
THINK about how your actions affect others.
R.I.P Amanda Todd.
I'm sorry that you were a victim of cruelty & abuse. This went beyond name calling.
Let this be an inspiration to change in the world.

R. I. P. Amanda Todd

On October 10, 2012, Amanda Todd took her life because of severe bullying. She was a beautiful girl with much to live for.
She created a video on youtube.com, as a cry for help, telling people her story.

Nelson the Bully

Jealousy Leads to Bullying

In one of Disney's classics, Cinderella is a target of bullying. Why? simply because she is beautiful.
Jealously is often the cause of bullying another person. It is an act of putting someone else down to make themselves feel better. It is an act of insecurity.

I'm sure everyone is familiar with this scene!

All you're ever gonna be is MEAN!

 
Taylor Swift even has her own bullies. She fought back with this song (in a positive way). Letting them know that no matter what they say, she's stronger, she'll become more successful & all they're ever gonna be is MEAN...
Bullying of any kind is pointless.

Be the Solution

If you're not apart of the solution,
then you're apart of the problem.

New to Google Blogger!

Bullying is when someone intentionally says or does something to hurt someone else. Bullying can be done individually or in groups. Either way, bullying is done to make a person feel powerless and insecure. It is wrong and we intend to stop the abuse.

This blog has been created for everyone to rant about their experiences with bullying anonymously. Sometimes you just need someone to listen, someone to vent to, and for someone to care.

A popular non-profit organization, Kid Help Phone, helps kids deal with bullying by simply talking to a counsellor over the phone. A Kids Help Phone counsellor, Angela Seabourne explains that sometimes kids feel more comfortable talking to someone who they don't know. Find out more in this interview with Angela Seabourne:

We are encouraging people to do the same with our blog. Please feel free to blog with us!
