the work load and I loved my job. The only thing that made my life miserable was the bullying and harassment by the Camp Two people. Luckily my voluntary work in the Gibraltar Nature Reserve continued to be an excellent distraction of the depressing work atmosphere issues and prevented me from going mad.

58. On 5th September 2017 Yousri Amrani sent an email to all team members and management to complain about the bad atmosphere in the Dutch/Flemish team for which he blamed me. This happened only ten days before the end of my four months probation and was another attempt to try to force the management to sack me, another poorly hidden attempt from the Camp Two guys to bully me out of the company. I replied to Susana Martin and Samira Mouhayar via email: "Yousri sent you the e-mail below today to ask for a team meeting as he and Jose Luis started again with their campaign to bully me. Leanne Dyer was present when it happened, a lot of shouting and screaming and accusing me of being a cause of trouble and bad atmosphere in the team. Last week Sabir Nouri did the same but I could prove twice his claims were wrong." ... "It was not to the liking of Jose Luis Aznar though as he started shouting at me, and Yousri joined him (in front of Leanne)" ... "If you go through the chats you will see that he has no ground at all to claim that." ... "I have discussed this in a short meeting with Daniela and Samira and hope this gets sorted out." Again I had a strong feeling that the management was not taking my complaints serious. I had now on several occasions given evidence about cases I had been criticised for by the bullies and showing they were creating entirely unnecessary and unreasonable conflict and commotion about things I had done correctly. That behaviour simply was not reasonable. Again I had a strong impression that Samira Mouhayar had a soft spot for Yousri Amrani and kind of covered up for him. The management's lack of real action did nothing to assuage my feelings of being alarmed, distressed, humiliated and intimidated. Jose Luis Aznar made a tremendous fuss about a mistake he had made in a reply to a customer during a chat. I had that same customer later again on chat and sorted out his problem. Nothing really important had happened and the problem was easily resolved but still Jose Luis Aznar' created a drama and his reaction was entirely out of proportion. Working together in a team environment was clearly not something that he understood as it involved helping out each other instead of making a public fuss about a colleague that had just corrected a minor mistake that he had made because he was not up to date with his knowledge about that specific promotion.
