H.R. came in and had a conversation with me, and while I wasn't written up, I felt like I was run over. I had never been accused of something like that...EVER. I was quite hurt. They purposely treated me like crap for the past few days, and I couldn't do anything about it.
I was offered another job, and I took it tonight. I just KNOW that if I stayed, they could make up some story that I grabbed their ass or something, then I'd be fired.
HR and their policies have gone too far. I have built a great reputation for myself, and 2 woman that want to smoke 10+ times a day win cause they lied. That's not right.

That's crazy. Good thing you got out when you could. I remember in my last job, I was the marketing director for a radio station and there were a couple of subordinates after my job. One of them "anonymously" posted a rumor on a radio message board that I was a coke fiend and soon people started saying you could see me in the VIP section of different clubs in DC snorting coke with musicians and models. It was so far fetched that no one took it seriously. But still it shows you the extent some people will go to.

So are you starting your own job placement agency then?
