A friend of mine works in an office. This is a small office, only 2 girls working in the front, an office administrator and the owner with 2 maintenance workers. This is a property management company.
She and the other girl working in the front are yelled at and belittled for things that may have not gone according to plan, but are often nobody's fault, or even the administrator or the owner's fault. When they provide email proof that it wasn't their fault they get a quick sorry at best...never anything sincere.
It is so bad at times that they come home in tears at least once or twice a week. Is there any recourse? Going to management isn't an option because the owner is apparently the worst. Is stress leave an option? They are currently looking for other employment but that kind of thing doesn't happen overnight. Does anybody have any ideas? They have tried talking to them about it but things get better for maybe a day or two at most.
