    I just quit my job on Friday,in part, due to the hostile working atmosphere. Are there support groups for this and how do I find one in my area? I have searched all over the web not coming up with anything. I live in Nassau County, New York. I feel completely traumatized by this situation.

    Reply: I know in Montgomery Alabama if the Company is Non Union they can say anything & get away with most anything co workers are afraid to help you. I have been thru the same thing with past employers. Almost every application it says in small print that the Company can terminate you without just cause or reason & you are not guaranteed any length of work. That is what a Lawyer told me that Non Union Jobs have the right to terminate you for any reason being slow what ever. No it is not right being on the receiving end of an attority abusing boss. Here in Montgomery Alabama no rights for workers I am sure it is about the same there. You cant hurt someone that is over you they can hurt you found that out dont mouth back at them or you will be gone like I am. As for your coworkers dont tell them anything personel about you. They will use the information to hurt you. If it is unbearable get out quit before they fire you. Then you will have a bad last employer bad mouthing you. The least you say is the best coping skills I have had bosses yell out at me they want you to say something back to them so they can fire you. Co workers will not help you if anything they will use you as a ladder rung to step up or move up. Dirty Politics Nov 18 04 I hope you find a support group I have not yet either
