A woman double her size with long open hair dressed in blue jeans and a yellow top with a jacket hugging her body and a tattoo on her right hand brushed her shoulder and walked quickly into the office.“Wow she has strong legs to walk that fast” Jenny thought.

Mobbing

Everybody face problems at their workplace but tend to remain hush about it. Mobbing is spreading widely in almost all work places in the world but the topic is hidden because no one wants to experience any kind of loss at their work place. “Mobbing” is a term started by Duffy and Len Sperry which means “nonsexual harassment of a coworker by a group.”   It is defined as: "MOBBING IS...EMOTIONAL ABUSE in the workplace. "Ganging up" by co-workers, subordinates or superiors, to force someone out of the workplace through rumor, innuendo, intimidation, humiliation, discrediting, and isolation. Malicious, nonsexual, nonracial, general harassment. Other expressions for MOBBING are: Bullying, psychological terror or aggression, hostile behaviors at work, workplace trauma, incivility or emotional violence. We consider MOBBING an emotional injury that impacts a target's mental and physical health. MOBBING is a workplace safety and health issue." N. Zanolli Davenpo
