I had become a very difficult employee to deal with, I am more than aware of this fact. The question that needs to be asked is though, why did I go from being the easiest employee to deal with to the most difficult? I now pride myself on the problems I cause the management; as I have studied management and practiced management, I am well aware of both the theory and implementation of organisational leadership.

What I find most galling is that I have been proven time and time again to be correct in my analysis yet their arrogant pride prevents them from making competent decisions. What they do know is that I can’t be fired or even retrenched as I now fall under the scope of the Whistleblower protection policy. They came up with this little plan, but I caught on and I made my defensive moves, so they have a quandary here, it looks like they have to change their angle and relent.

Whilst the Public Interest Disclosure Act 2003 sets the standards for reporting corruption, they know they can’t do what they want to do. They think they are making my life miserable, but the question is, are they making their life miserable? The problem is that I refused to engage in unethical and corrupt behaviour; so you could imagine my delight when I my research uncovered their corrupt workplace practices. If you are going to engage in institutional workplace bullying, you had better make sure you don’t have any other issues hanging over you.

Engaging in bullying of other people and then hiding behind your position has the potential to set a trend and hoping they don’t report you is just poor planning and execution. So far, their policy of trying to run roughshod over me hasn’t really worked, they have stalled, balked, acted tricky and deceitful. Yet this hasn’t yielded the results they had hoped for and they think if they keep applying the pressure, I will wilt under their pressure. So maybe a change in strategy is required as their tactics are proving unsuccessful.
