Constructive dismissal in progress.

[adrianh]

It is abundantly clear the my daughter is going through a process of constructive dismissal.

The boss has two sons. The one son went overseas and my daughter took his tasks over. The son has now returned and the boss has handed 50% of my daughter's tasks back to her son (which is perfectly understandable). The problem is that the boss is making her life absolutely miserable - he swears at my daughter - craps on her but the problem is that he changes his mind about how things should be done all the time - she gets crapped on doing it one way, gets told to do it another and then gets crapped on for doing it that way. The boss even craps on my daughter for mistakes his own sons makes (in front of the two sons) and they just keep quiet. My daughter is a nervous wreck because she doesn't know from day to day whether she is going to get crapped on for any number of things out of the blue.

We've told her to try and keep her cool while she looks for another job - the thing is that this lot is reaching a point where my daughter might just tell him to go F-himself to his face.

How can bosses go through life life this - If he wants my daughter to leave why doesn't he just tell her and get it over with - why does he have to torment her till she cracks! The business isn't going very well because the boss does this sort of thing in front of customers. The customers are also starting to scatter and the STUPID boss blames my daughter for them leaving. He doesn't seem to realize that if you swear at a young female employee in front of his own sons and his FEMALE customers that they are going to leave.

This person does many many inconsistent strange things all the time. I suppose my daughter should just leave rather than be a ball of stress all the time (yes she did burst into tears in front of the ahole two weeks ago and explained her constant angst to him - he just forgets and turns into the pig that he is in no time)

I would personally love to go wring his neck!
