I get tired of people calling me a'ginger. 'I work hard to support my family. I'm thinking about quitting my job. I like old punk music. I like to cook out on the grill on the weekends.
Speaker 1
I live in New England. I own a pickup. I go camping. I listen to Metallica and Nine Inch Nails. I listen to old school punk at times.
Speaker 2
I am thinking about quitting my job. I am bullied at my job. I have red hair and a fair complexion. I like cooking on the weekends. I don't like it when it is too cold. I like listening to old punk. I have a family that I support with my job.
Speaker 1
Hey there! Tell me about yourself!
Speaker 2
I am about to quit my job. I am getting bullied.
Speaker 1
I'm sorry to hear that. I would quit too!
Speaker 2
Yeah. I been getting called a ginger and im tired of it.
Speaker 1
You should come out to new england, we don't tolerate bullying here!
Speaker 2
Its too cold up there. I like to cook out on weekends.
Speaker 1
I do too, I haul around in my pickup while camping.
Speaker 2
What type of music you play in you pickup?
Speaker 1
I learn towards metallica, nine inch nails, etc. What type of music do you like?
Speaker 2
More of an old punk guy.
Speaker 1
I don't mind old school punk myself sometimes.
Speaker 2
So yeah. I wanr to quit. But I have to support my family.

Speaker 1
I was talking to a friend the other day, and they mentioned that someone they know experienced a similar instance of bullying at their job as well. My friend mentioned that the person ended up getting an attorney to claim harassment in their workplace, perhaps you should consider legal help for your job as well?
Speaker 2
I think I would consider it, but I am worried about losing my job.  Did your friend's friend received any backlash for hiring an attorney?
Speaker 1
she didn't, because her company knew it would be even worse for them if they retaliated. there's laws against that. do you thikn you'd be retaliated against?
Speaker 2
I do worry about retaliation.  I'd like to quit, but that would be on my terms and would be only if I found a replacement job before quitting.  Is your friend's friend happier at work now?
Speaker 1
yeah, much. it makes a big difference, I think, to defend yourself and let people know you won't settle for bad treatment. and quitting is a tough call because as you said you wanna make sure you still have a paycheck coming in! do you have any interest in starting a job search?
Speaker 2
I do.  However, I think if hiring an attorney would make my work environment better, I would rather hire an attorney.  Do you think it is expensive?
Speaker 1
It depends on how many hours they have to put into it. so I guess if you had all your materials and a detailed outline together for them before you went the first time, you'd save some money that way
Speaker 2
That's a really good idea.  Have you ever experienced harrassment at work?
Speaker 1
I have, and it sucked. I felt like I was on the outside looking in all the time and like I dind't have what I needed to do my job well
Speaker 2
Did you quit, or did you file a suit?
Speaker 1
I ended up finding a different job, thankfully -- it wasn't worth suing over
Speaker 2
That's why I think I am hesitant to file.  I'll probably just need to talk more to my family about it.

I have a family that I support with my job. I need to talk to my family more about filing a suit or quitting my job.
Speaker 1
Hey--have you talked to your family about filing a suit at all?
Speaker 2
I haven't yet. I'm afraid that despite this being a move that I need to make for my mental health, they're going to be scared that I won't be able to support them anymore - which is a real possibility.
Speaker 1
Yeah -- it's a tough situation. I'm glad I got out of there when I could, you should consider doing the same.
Speaker 2
I'm definitely considering it. Where were you working before? And where are you working now?
Speaker 1
I was working with you! I can't believe you don't remember! But now I sell fruit off of I95 for a living. You should come run it with me!
Speaker 2
Yes I know we worked together, I just didn't remember which department. How lucrative is selling fruit? 
Speaker 1
Very, your red hair will act as a beacon to it and attract attention! It's a great fit
Speaker 2
My hair is blonde so I don't know how well that will help attract people.
Speaker 1
I bet if we play some punk rock that will get the foot traffic flowing.
Speaker 2
That's true. I just recently dyed my hair blonde when I was interviewing for other jobs. The red can be a little bit jarring. I could let it go back. The red hair plus the punk rock would certainly be a look.
Speaker 1
When you settle with our old company, we can use that money and this thing can really take off!
Speaker 2
How much are you averaging a day in sales?

Speaker 1
I just got the new Metallica album and I think you would really enjoy listening to it.
Speaker 2
Is that old punk? I thought they were heavy metal.
Speaker 1
They are heavy metal, yes. I still think you should try giving it a listen. I know you're more of a old punk person.
Speaker 2
Alright, even if they are metal I will listen to them on the way to work. Maybe I can yell my frustrations away.
Speaker 1
Haha yes! I'm telling you it's a great way to burn off some steam. How's work treating you lately? Any better?
Speaker 2
Not really, I've been looking for a new one, but no luck so far. I'm hoping to quit soon.
Speaker 1
Yeah it's probably for the best if you get out of there. Doesn't seem like a good environment.
Speaker 2
I've had some harrassment at work how is that working out for you?
Speaker 1
Well besides not making much money it's going well. Not so stressful and I can work on my own time at the fruit stand.
Speaker 2
Sounds great not having a boss and doing your own thing. Need any help with that? Maybe I can learn to grow some fruit.
Speaker 1
Yeah if this business continue to grow I would for sure hire you! Need to make some more money first so I can afford to pay you lol
Speaker 2
How are the customers? Are they always trying to get a better deal?

Speaker 1
I talked to my friend about your job situation. He would talk with you about yours if you wanted to.
Speaker 2
That would be great! Thank you for your help! Send me the info and I will give them a calL!
Speaker 1
Sure, no problem. We should get together soon and listen to some music.
Speaker 2
I would be up for that! Maybe you pick an album and I will as well! We can share our current favorite albums! 
Speaker 1
That sounds amazing. So I have to ask, what made you go blonde from your typically red hair?
Speaker 2
I think I was just looking for something new and different! Since I am looking for a new job, I wanted to start fresh! What color do you prefer? Blonde or Red?
Speaker 1
I think it's all about confidence, and how you present yourself to the world. What makes you feel best is what I prefer!
Speaker 2
I agree! I am feeling great now with blonde, though I will likely go back to red at some point! What color is your hair right now?
Speaker 1
Black with purple undertones. You know, keeping it natural, working with fruit and all. lol 
Speaker 2
That sounds amazing! I wish I had the nerve to do something fun like that! 
Speaker 1
I figure I can pull it off until I need to go get a real job again, have to be presentable and all.
Speaker 2
I understand that! Do you like your current job?
