What are some bullied at work horror stories?

One way is to document everything. Keep a record of the incidents, including dates, times, and what exactly happened. This can be useful if you need to report the bullying to higher - ups.

I've heard of a work horror story where there was a major project with an unrealistic deadline. The team was forced to work overtime every day for weeks. People were exhausted, and the quality of the work suffered in the end because of the extreme pressure.

One work comp horror story is when an injured worker had their claim denied repeatedly despite clear evidence of a work - related injury. The company kept finding loopholes in the paperwork to avoid paying. Another is a case where an employee was pressured to return to work too soon after an injury just to cut down on work comp costs. This led to the worker's condition worsening and more long - term damage.

Another one could be the horror of office politics. There might be a group of coworkers who form a clique and exclude others. They might spread rumors or take credit for other people's work. In a BuzzFeed - type story, this would be detailed with how the victim of such politics feels isolated and demotivated at work.

There was a work barge where a mysterious illness spread among the crew. People started getting really sick with high fevers and strange rashes. They were in the middle of the ocean, far from proper medical help. It was a horror as they didn't know what was causing it and if they would survive until they could reach a port.

One horror story is about the extreme long working hours. Workers were made to work from dawn till dusk with very few breaks. They were so exhausted but still had to meet high quotas. Another is the poor living conditions. Some farms provided filthy and overcrowded accommodation for the workers. And there were also cases of workers being underpaid or not paid at all despite their hard work.

One horror story is when a work programme was so poorly planned that employees were expected to meet impossible deadlines. For example, in a software project, the team was given a week to complete a feature that usually takes a month. There was no proper assessment of the workload, and everyone ended up overworked and stressed.

There was a factory where a series of unexplained accidents happened. Workers reported feeling a sense of dread as they entered the place. Machinery seemed to malfunction in a way that was more than just mechanical issues. For example, a conveyor belt suddenly sped up when no one was near the controls. Some workers believed it was cursed and ended up quitting their jobs out of fear.

Once at my old job, we had a big presentation. Right before it started, the projector died. We were all scrambling, trying to find a replacement. In the chaos, one of my colleagues accidentally spilled coffee all over the notes. It was a nightmare but also kind of hilarious in hindsight.

One horror story is when a patient went for cheap tooth filling. The dentist used sub - standard materials. After a short while, the filling started to crack and crumble, causing pain and the need for a more expensive redo. Another case was a cheap dental implant. The implant wasn't placed correctly, leading to infection and gum problems. It was a nightmare for the patient as they had to go through multiple surgeries to fix it.
