DW is having a bad time at work, She has a toxic enabler of a boss (Director), her direct report deputy is is a sexist, racist (no evidence other than observed behaviour) incompetant and one colleague indirectly bellow her are all making her life a misery. She's had to go on anti anxieties to get through the work day.
She manages a team of 15, 14 of whom think she's an excellent boss (I have met most of these people).
So how can I help and support her deal with this shit. A part of me wants to wait in a dark alley and deal violently, with these people who are making her life a misery - VERY BAD IDEA.
Or make an appointment to see the MD and explain that these people have caused to go on anti anxieties and that her workplace is damaging to her health.
I have said that if she wants to terminate employment that's fine by me and that she can take as-long as necessary to get a new job... she's pretty close to accepting that one.
What she wants to do is to hang in as-long as it takes to get a new job, but the stressors at work are (I think) causing her to interview badly. Any thoughs advice or experiences are gladly accepted to help me to help her.
