Well, things have gone from bad to worse over the weekend. Saturday night I was revising at work when my colleague came back from his girlfriend's, he was intoxicated. He got himself a drink of whisky from the kitchen and came into the livingroom where I was. I have a major exam monday so tried to focus on the paperwork. My colleague asked me if we could talk, so I asked him what about, turns out my boss had talked to him about the incident the other day. So I said ok, lets talk about it. He denied all knowledge of the incident, and wanted to know "why I had lied to the boss?". When I said I hadn't he became aggressive. He got right into my face and started shouting at me, and waving his arms about, and clenching his fists. He was stood over me the whole time, I couldn't escape. I couldn't leave the room. I just had to endure his tirade. Luckily one of my other colleagues had been working late and she came into the house with a slam of the back door. My aggressive colleague then sat down and just scowled at me then. I was terrified. I left the house and went into the actual work premises and called my parents and my supervisor and boss. I couldn't believe what had happened, I was in total shock. My boss arrived and we moved my things out of the house and into my car, I was sent home.
I'm still shocked that this has happened. But what shocks me more is the fact my boss has explained to me that there is nothing that can be done legally as there were no witnesses! So I'm expected to work with this guy! I'm expected to work with a mentally manipulative and physically aggressive individual. Clearly I burst into tears and was shaking with shock for no reason (spot the sarcasm anyone?). I'd rather never return to that place again! If I wouldnt owe my boss tuition fee money for my course if I left, then I'd leave right now! Hate the idea of going back. I actually don't see the point in going back.
