Jaeluni Asjil posted:It may be that others higher up in your organization realize something is up already. However, you need to protect yourself too. Draw up your workplace redlines and cast an eye around for other possibilities in case it comes to it. I doubt it; I work most closely with this person out of all my colleagues, and this all kicked off over the last month and a half, which has been a quiet period in my workplace. What can I realistically do to protect myself in this situation without informing other colleagues of what's going on and violating this person's privacy?

There comes a time when you can't keep secrets like this. They have a duty of care to their employee and to you, and you have a duty to both the company and to be honest yourself to let them know. It's already impeding your work - for example it would be daft to sign that contract as things stand. Protecting him will likely not help you and I doubt very much his manager is as oblivious as you might presume. You don't need to lay out every detail but I would let them know, possibly after informing him you're going to do so. Do you have a union you can speak to? Edit: One thing to add of course is that you're not a doctor (unless you are), if you tell someone at work frame it as a work issue because it's affecting their work and yours. What is causing the issues can be up to them to establish. If you need to add something you could say - knowing them personally I am concerned that they are struggling with their mental health but I would not want to breach their trust by discussing that further.

Don't be a tattle tale is one of the worst things boomers inflicted upon our generation, and it was entirely designed to stop kids speaking out about abusive toxic poo poo perpetuated by a generation that also mocked it's children for needing glasses.

MeinPanzer posted:I doubt it; I work most closely with this person out of all my colleagues, and this all kicked off over the last month and a half, which has been a quiet period in my workplace. I hate to say it, but start with arse-covering re the new project. Emails detailing exactly what your role will be, especially if he doesn't put things in writing! Example: "Following our discussion this morning re New Project this is just to set down what I believe we agreed our roles are: I will . do this . do that . do the other. And you will . do this . do that . do the other. Please let me know if I have got that wrong." Then weekly: "Progress report on New Project: I have done a, b, c. I haven't done d because I'm waiting on e." Good practice anyway if the new project is as big / important as you have indicated. (I think I'm going to have to start doing this with my own job soon! Not because of arse-covering but because I am routinely working considerably more than my paid hours with no financial or time-off compo! We're all in the same boat though so different to your situation. Got one important project to push through this month, then I'm getting in to this.)

Convex posted:Apparently this is the result of the £200k spent redecorating Boris' flat loving hell, its like living inside a clowns rectum. You know when you've done everything in the sims, have the infinite money cheat and you decide to just build the most garish house you can? Then set it on fire?

Unfortunately no. Edit: to clarify, this person isn't technically my superior -- we are both officially lecturers -- but they have a permanent job, while I'm on a temporary contract. They have, however, previously sat on a search committee that awarded me a contract extension, and there is a distinct possibility that they will again be on another search committee for a permanent job that is slated to come up in a few months and for which I am currently the leading internal candidate.

Someone elsewhere noted that Labour are probably going to put the Tories in a box by going for a VonC on BoJo not leaving immediately. Force the Tories to defend the indefensible "He's good enough to stay, until we kick him out in the autumn." Best Comedy Option: VONC fails, Boris declares "The party has spoken, that they DO have confidence in me", and rescinds his resignation."

That said, interior designers normally have to work to client's spec so Carrie must have wanted whatever they ended up with. One of my relatives qualified in Interior Design and after about a year quit doing it because she couldn't stand the kind of things clients were asking her to do because they offended her taste. Turns out working for clients is a bit different to using your imagination in your degree finals exhibition.

Hmm, that does sound complicated and you're a loyal friend but I don't think it's helping you or him right now. He needs help with his stuff, you are not able to hold it for him any more. I would suggest going with my edit above. If you join a union I think they would help you, particularly if it's active on campus already. Edit: The tenure thing makes it even harder, but you can't sustain this situation for months otherwise you wouldn't be posting about it. If this all comes to light I think it's likely he will be taking some time off rather than sitting on selection panels. Zalakwe fucked around with this message at 10:25 on Jul 8, 2022 |

I just joined the main union in our department (which I've been meaning to do for a while now but never got around to), so I'll consult with them about what sort of protections I might have.

Good luck with it, it sounds really hard and nothing I have written is exactly gospel but ultimately we can't be responsible for other people's mental health and don't need to carry those burdens around. I hope the union have good advice and both you and your friend get through ok.

Boris is the latter.

I think had Johnson not resigned yesterday, he would have (almost to a certainty) used the Abe assassination as an extremely tenuous justification to hold on.
