Dear Matt,
You need to run another article as such and really assist with the horror that one bully can do to an innocent employee. I have been targeted, bullied and now blacklisted within the same employer for the last decade. I have had to struggle to get through each day, have landed in the Psych Ward due to the harassment and have had the very same circumstances happen to me. Please investigate this problem more thoroughly and provide those of us who have been beaten down with some insight and hope.
