evasive reply that “I accepted Susana Martin as my team leader and that we all had our good and bad days”. The Camp Two guys then went around the department saying that “I had not denied” that Susana Martin was a bad team leader. You could not win with those guys... 33. During one of the meetings I had with Susana Martin during my first two months at GVC, I was quite desperate after a tough morning with the bullies. I asked Susana Martin if the Camp Two guys had an alcohol problem and they worked in the mornings with a hangover explaining their bad attitude.

This slowly began to undermine my self-esteem and self-confidence. 34. In my case, the bullying had started almost immediately after I joined the team. After about two months of it and reporting it to my team leader Susana Martin verbally on several occasions, I had enough of putting up with it and started to document it in emails to Susana Martin, my team leader, and later I also included Samira Mouhayar, the department manager. On many occasions Susana Martin went in hiding in her little office corner close to the window where she always sat and pretended to remain oblivious to |
