relentless campaign to make someone look bad was way over the top. The other teams also had noticed that Susana Martin was not capable of doing her job. Susana Martin had to work with the other language teams on late shifts or weekend shifts when the other team leaders were not present. I was shocked to hear Jean-Philippe Surget, the team leader from the French team, publicly say that Susana Martin was useless. Such things didn't help to improve the situation in my team or the department in general.

23. The Camp Two members also excelled in their immature comments about their sexual exploits with women. I had no choice but to listen to them on the work floor on several occasions when they were describing very explicit details. It was quite normal for them to explain how and where they reached their climax with past or present girlfriends and other things I was not particularly interested in. Then there was also Yousri Amrani explaining that he would only cheat on his girlfriend Marjolaine in Belgium, never in Spain so she would not find out. Yousri Amrani and Jose Luis Aznar also liked to comment on the female staff members that walked past and their sexual interests in them. How they would throw some of the more attractive women on their desks and f*** their brains out. The less attractive ones were alledgely only good enough to provide oral pleasure.

I never had a day at GVC that there was no work that needed immediate attention.

24. During our eight hour shifts, we had three breaks at work: a fifteen minute break, a half an hour break and another fifteen minute break. These breaks were all registered via a software installed on the computers. I almost never took the shorter breaks and in the evenings, when I sat alone, ate my dinner (warmed up in a microwave) at my desk so as to continue to have the customer service chats manned. Even when you sat alone it was allowed to take those breaks meaning that there was no Dutch/Flemish person present during your breaks to man the chats. I never did that, I did not think it was professional to abandon my post. I never had the feeling that this caused me extra pressure or stress as I enjoyed the job. Continue working instead of having all the breaks also made time pass much more quickly. The Camp Two guys on the other hand took more and longer breaks, for instance for smokes outside the building, than was allowed as a reaction on Martijn van
