Yes. I was one of 2 employees that worked in the office. I saw her target others within the fold of the business many times.

I was 7 months pregnant and she told me that she planned on letting me go because I couldn't do the work to her standards (she admitted to being a perfectionist and overly critical on her better days).

I started working very slowly, making sure to dot the i's and cross the t's. She backed off.

Bananna	Posted Sep 5th, 2009 at 6:52PM I felt targeted or mistreated when I went back to work after taking 1 month off for depression and anxiety. My manager was very cold, they gave my station to someone else and moved me to the back, etc. I didn't do anything about it...I guess it's part of the whole depression thing, I just didn't care.
