Nervous!!!
Greeting folks!
Here is the rest of the story.
On Friday, July 13th, my boss calls me in his office.
He told me that the man made a formal complaint against me at the municipal building.
The Mayor called the Trustees and the Trustees called my Director. There was one of my colleaques, Annette in with us. My Director told me that the Trustees wanted me to write a formal appology to the man!!!
I shook my head. Couldn’t do it I informed my boss.
My boss said I had no choice. I was to appologize to that aweful man!
“All you have to do, Mary, to conserve your job, is to go up to the man and say, ‘If for any reason I’ve offended you in any way, I am sorry’. I shook my head and told the boss I wasn’t going to appologize to the man and that I never wanted to be near him nor in the same room as he was. He frightens, enrgages and infuriates me, making me ill at ease!
My boss insisted I do it and he set up a meeting with himself, the man and I at 3PM.
My boss told me I shouldn’t call my parents until the meeting. 🙁
I went upstairs shaking! I called my mother crying.
She called my brother and explained the situation. He advised me NOT to appologize under any circumstances.
I went to lunch but had no appetite. I was so very nervous! I had an appointment with the man, my boss and I was to appologize. I went home at lunch and talked to my brohter about the situation. He told me to tell my boss that I spoke to my lawyer and my lawyer warned me not to appologize. I didn’t eat anything that day.
At 1PM I went to my boss and said that I spoke to my lawyer and my lawyer advised me NOT to appologize to that man that if I did I would be admitting guilt and I did NOT do anything. My boss listenend but he tried to reason with me. I shook my head and said “NO, Weiliang! I WILL NOT APPOLOGISE TO THAT MAN!”.
My boss nodded his head, went to the office and called the man telling him that the meeting of appology was called off.
Nervous I continued working. I called my mother and told her to please come over to help my frazzled nerves. My parents came and remained with me upstairs.
At 4:30PM Stella, the Reference lady came up to me and told me that Weiliang said for me to go home early.
I wanted to know why. I called downstairs and Carmen, my other colleaque informed me that Weiliang and the man were in the office dialoging. I went home with my parents very nervous and depressed 🙁
On Monday I went to work very nervous.
My boss called me in the office. He said everything was over. The man said he wasn’t going to press charges over anything. (I wonder if he got scared when I said there was a lawyer on this issue). The boss said that I was going to be protected of this man and I was to go downstairs whenever the man came to the library. He asked me what happened and I told him the truth. When I said that the man pushed me his eyes lit up.
Under no circumstance was the man EVER to come near me, I informed my boss or I will file charges of harrassment against him.
So that’s the story regarding these past few weeks.
I’ve never been so insulted in my life!
I’m a bit more calmed now.
I still shake when I see him. He is coming to the library more often. I wonder if it is just to bother me.
I just head on downstairs to the adult room while he remains in the children’s department.
I wrote my Union representatives and told him of the case. They are investigating this.
Last Monday, Trudy, this tutor who tutors her students told me that the man was there on Monday and one of her students was looking for a book and the man approached her. In a gruff voice he said to her, “I wouldn’t work nor be near that aweful woman (meaning Trudy, who is a lovely woman). Trudy was engraged! She vowed that if he EVER comes near any of her kids again he will complain against him. I wish he does.
This man..this maniac…doesn’t deserve to be there!
