Alien Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I was about to say something like that. Suppose I rang my boss up today and said "Sorry, I can't come into work, I've gone down with Work Phobia. Oh and it's going to last until the world cup finishes". What do you think his reaction would be? Pretty obvious I would think...but what has that to do with your op? If you rang in work and told your boss you were being bullied by management...what do you think his/her reaction would be? Or more to the point "should" be?

Suffragette1 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I was about to say something like that. Suppose I rang my boss up today and said "Sorry, I can't come into work, I've gone down with Work Phobia. Oh and it's going to last until the world cup finishes". What do you think his reaction would be? Just say 'sorry, I'm not doing any work today as am too busy on SF winding people up'. Does that count as work-phobia?

GordonBennet Posted June 11, 2010 Author Share Posted June 11, 2010 this WASNT INVENTED it was discovererd! its a real problem that affects a lot of people. my son has this and goes to school everyday even though every day is a struggle for him. he is not a chav, rude/cheeky, bad mannererd, hyper active, ignorant, stupid or thick! The whole point of school is that it's supposed to be a struggle! It teaches you valuable lessons in life - how to get on with other people from different classes and culture for example. Sometimes we have to do things in life that we don't particularly like doing. Sometimes we meet people we don't get on with who might pick on or bully us. It's character building to experience such things. Every kid in the country would rather stop at home playing video games and watching TV than go to school, but that's no reason for them to be let off!

I personally think you are wrong on these points but you are entitled to your opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
