What do I do when my supervisor and manager are actively trying to set me up to be fired?
Asked by jinxed_me
My supervisor has told my co-workers that my manager has asked him to set me up and since then I have been writen up by him three times in three days. He twists the truth so that he can say that I am not doing my job and writing me up for things that no one else would be written up for. He is openly disrespectfull to me and constataly tries to provoke me with words. Myself and everyone I work with sees me being pruseacuted and feel it is horriablily wrong, but I feel helpless to prevent it. I have already went to our H.R. department but they seem to put it mildly, uncareing. P.S., I resently resigned my postition of supervisor in order to attend school and the person directly harrassing me is the person that replaced me. I am not a disgruntled employee with some agenda, I just wanted the freedom in my schdule to be able to attend school and I feel I am being unfairly punished for stepping down. Please, any advice would be welcome.

Insist that HR look into this. Write down everything your manager says and does that is inappropriate - including the exact words / actions and the time of day it happened. Ask other employees who witness things to sign the bottom of it. Email these to your HR and Save the email proving you sent it. If this keeps up then hire a Lawyer - before you get fired, then if you are fired it will be considered Retaliation.

Quit before you are fired, looks better on a resume.

I guess it's possible that you are being targeted by them. It's not uncommon when the chemistry between employee/ management puts the employee in a vulnerable position like that. Or you could be one of those types that rubs everybody the wrong way and your too dense to realize it. Either way, who cares???.............. I'm bored

In the whole details, one missing link is -what is the ulterior motive of the manager to set you up.
The new supervisor may be acting on the instructions of the manager, if so, what is the cause of the manager's wrath? You shall bring that to the notice of the PR and if nothing improves, should take it to the higher level management.
