Toxic Workplace Behaviors That Need To Stop ASAP

“‘This is a family.’ No, it’s not…its a business.”

“Take this advice seriously.

I was interviewed for a position at a local ski resort rental shop. They told me that ‘they were family.’

Fast forward to the second season; I reported sexual harassment against my head supervisor. I found out the whole crew was doing coke in between helping with customers. They were taking swigs of hard liquor and beer in the locker room all day long. 

The bosses were having affairs with young employees. For a while, I kind of accepted that and started partying with them. I finally realized; the term ‘we’re family’ was another way of gatekeeping. I was like, ‘Ok, this is too much and my boss is making me feel uncomfortable.’ After reporting, the whole rental shop boys turned against me and they hated me for it.

I was so traumatized, so bad that I skipped my period. I still think about it today.”
