How To Deal With Violent Or Narcissistic People.
Receptionist:
I cannot share my options in my work with my boss. All employees must meet with their boss ahead of time and discuss "work subjects" or what is bothering them.
When going to a meeting and your subject comes up don't say anything just let others try to make an input.
I was always told to not talk period around men. Any thoughts let your boss know and keep any personal or business comments to oneself.
I have also been told by business speakers to leave my job because ignoring the situation does not work.
