I was working in an assisted living facility. The manager felt it necessary to “rescue” a down-and-out kind of family, so he hired the lot of them to run the kitchen and work in other positions. Some of them were ex-felons and there were some very unsavory characters.
The manager directly over me really appreciated my work ethic and expertise (he said I was the best he’d ever seen at my job), but I was not favored by “The Family.” When I announced that I would be moving out of state and was giving my two week notice, one thug coworker shoved me into a wall in full view of the office staff. Nobody said a thing, and it was as if it had never happened. When I complained to my supervisor, he said he would take my complaint, but it would be ignored (he didn’t like them either). I quit right then and there, which was the intent of my assailant.
Edit: I’m not sure what I learned, but I’m glad I walked out. It’s unpleasant to have no closure about such an experience. By the way, that place is still in business 11 years later.
I’m now retired and have moved back into the same community. I am careful to caution anyone who is contemplating moving to that place to look elsewhere. ((Shudder))
