Worst Day
I want to cry because today at work was the worst day
A guy made me uncomfortable verbally and I didn’t know what to do. It first started with me doing my job and he just got soo mad because I put in the computer I need more work and he responsible for bringing me it but instead he got mad and demanded me to delete the report . Then he keep coming up to me and I didn’t understand he was saying because he had a strong accent and broken English but he later keep coming serious and saying uncomfortable things to me and end of saying he’s joking. So when I left early from my work area because it was almost break and went to the bathroom and cried. I was planning to stay here for the rest of my working hours and clock out/leave cause I don’t want my parents to see my face or the reason why I’m crying. I only waited for 30 min and clock out because I was too scared I would get in trouble or fired. And now I’m stuck here in the bathroom crying because so much things going on . I don’t want my manager to think I don’t want to work because I already left one time last week and never arrived one time also last week. I’m just soo scared about me being risk of losing my job especially cause I’m seasonal and slow doing my job. I’m planning staying here in the bathroom stall til is time to leave even if I’m not gonna get payed because I just want to be alone from family and people at work. I hate today…

I can understand your feelings and just wanting to wait it out.
You did not do anything wrong if you needed more work and it was his job to bring the work to you. I know we all try to make nice and not escalate anything but if you did not understand person with accent or was made uncomfortable speaking up or having someone else in conversations is a good idea.
I know you are avoiding and may decide to leave early from seasonal job ..... but trust me in many workplaces this type of situation arises. It is hard and scary sometimes but standing up for yourself is a learned skill that takes practice. Dealing with anything like this in the moment is easier to deal with then lets say telling a supervisor that it happened a while ago.
I hope you got thru the day even if in a bathroom.

Hang in there and try not to let these types get to you personally. Yes, I know that's a difficult thing to do especially if you got a meany in your face but please believe me when I say "It's not you he was talking bout but himself." All that mean stuff, cruelty, etc only to say "What? I'm just joking." He just showed you how he treats himself.
Misery loves company. No lie. It most certainly does. So miserable people go around planting seeds of misery, hoping they take root, and ruin another persons day just like they ruin their own day, everyday. I hope today is a wonderful day for you. Virtual hugs to you!
@plumWater578 You should not let your colleagues make you tolerate inadequate behaviour. Raise it to the manager, let your voice be heard.

No job is worth you being bullied or crying. Don't let anyone make you feel inferior and if needs be speak out, you deserve to feel happy in your workplace, sorry you had such an awful day 🥰💜
