The Final Straw.

I've worked for a popular supermarket franchise in the UK for around nine months now and all I have experienced is incompetence and rampant harassment. Just today, a known sexual predator who had been preying on the sixteen year old workers was reinstated after being sacked for sexual harassment. He was given his job back because “he's harmless.” What the actual fuck. I still can't believe it now, but here we are. I made a formal complaint to my manager and was told that it has nothing to do with me and because I'm a bloke I shouldn't comment. I've seen how uncomfortable the younger girls on my department are around him, and how some of them were upset and felt unsafe when they were told he was coming back.

So I made a formal complaint and told my manager that it showed a damning lack of care or consideration for the workers beneath him. In response, I got a verbal warning and was told I would be disciplined further if I continued to speak about it.

They can discipline me all they like after I hand my notice in and go straight to the local papers and put those disgusting human beings on blast. I am so angry right now at the way this has been handled.

TLDR:Work reinstates a known sexual predator and tells his victims to get over it because “he's harmless really.”
