Yeah
The last bully I ran into was the CEO of my former company..talk about what to do.

The board of directors knew he was a jerk and bully as well. They didn't care though..they didn't have to put up with it and he was making them money!

What can you do? Go to HR and tell them your CEO is a dirt ball and then what? They start an investigation or make note of your complaint? And the CEO finds out it's you who complained. Right..you might want to line up another job before you run to HR.

I'm normally not one to walk or run away from a problem but it was just easier for me to find another job close to home that pays more than to have to put up with that stuff. I have a family to take care of. I'll let my pride go for the sake of my family. If I didn't have a choice then yeah, I guess I would have to stay and fight and hope it all come out ok.

All this being said, I'd like to remind anyone in this position, which I was in at one time, that there just might be a reason for this situation you are in. For me it ended up with a job that is in almost all aspects better than my previous job.

We are all accountable in the end. Keep this in mind when you set out for revenge by deflating someone's tires, etc. That bully will get what's coming to him..but you shouldn't be the one to do it.
