While you think it’s a personal attack on you and most likely it is in the way your former boss or current employer acts negatively towards you, it’s a wise idea to take into consideration in the back of your mind that what you’re going through or what you have been through with your former employer or current boss is nothing more than a spiritual test to see what your spiritual character is made of. Satan is allowed to do something and the devil works through people. That said, when you feel your employer, coworkers for some customers purposely and indirectly provoke you to see if you’re going to act out, the first thing that should come to mind is it’s a temporary feeling and a temporary act of ignorance and the moment and this too shall pass.

 

 

6 ways of dealing with customers, your employer or acting manager on duty and coworker or coworkers when they try to make you angry for no reason:

1. Let your words be few – Most people quietly judge a person based on looks, religion, the way they dress and converse and relates to others. if your employer, coworker or co-workers, the acting manager on duty at the time and some customers act funny towards you and say things or do things to provoke your last good nerve, let your words be few by responding in general and vague responses if needed. When required, ignore all together but use wise judgment before doing so. In the time you peel provoked by people while striving for excellence to the best of your ability to do your job in the moment, maintain a calm and Collective demeanor. People especially your employer is looking for certain character traits to surface out of you when provoked. Baffle your employer and co-worker or coworkers by giving no response when needed.

 

 

2. Ignore your employer when necessary by saying nothing as a reaction – Your boss will front you off in front of customers by trying to take over your business to customer transaction while you’re trying to do your job as a way of getting you to mouth off to your employer in front of the customer, and directly or indirectly using the customer as a witness to what you allegedly say to your boss as a reaction of taking over your business to customer transaction. Workplace harassment by employers continues to go on documented and undocumented as corporate Human Resources continues to do nothing about it. But the human resources generalist is quick to do something once your employer mentions to them how they feel about you and how your employer wants your job ousted because they feel some type of way personally about you and quietly has a personal vendetta to have you wrongfully terminated. Your employer may threaten you indirectly by saying things when one employee or no employees are around to witness what the employer said by saying things such as “if you ever tell on me,” and touching you lightly during passing while no one Witnesses what your employer did as a means of your employer lightly pushing you to the side as they walk past you. When employers do sneaky things such as physical or verbal, it’s a good thing sometimes to completely ignore and walk away from them while on duty. They may try to classify your actions and reactions as insubordinate. don’t fall for the insubordination trick your employer or human resources generalist may try to pull on you as a fast card. When your employer mouths off at you whether it’s in front of customers, co-workers or in secrecy when no one is around to listen, ignore them by all means because you don’t want your boss to twist your words around and say you threaten them. And if needed, take your smartphone with you to work and quietly record in moment you feel your employer may attack you while trying to do your job to the best of your ability. Remember it’s only a test to see what you’re made of and your test can come from anyone. Through all of this, continue to think positive and keep your head held high because you hold spiritual worth regardless what your employer thinks of you.

 

 

3. Document your employer ‘on the fly‘ – There’s random moments when your employer says and does things that’s hard to prove. You don’t want your employer lying on you saying you said something or did something without concrete evidence of defending yourself. One sure shot way of Defending yourself on the fly is by having a blank sheet of paper readily available and hold it in your pocket ready to write everything down your employer said or did when no one’s around to witness their actions. If needed, calmly when you get up from your work desk and slowly proceeded outside the workplace or in the bathroom to document with pen or pencil the exact date and time of the occurrence your employer made unethical gestures to you and be sure to write down exactly what they said and did verbatim. you want to be mindful to write down the exact date and time just in case you have to go back in your employee documentation note to verify your claim later when needed as evidence against your employer after your wrongful termination.

 

 

4. Show up to the job ahead of your scheduled shift – Your employer may have a personal Vendetta against you because of religion, the way you think, the way you relate to other co-workers and acting managers on duty, Etc. Despite whatever your general manager or acting manager on duty has against you, continue showing up to work ahead of schedule so they can’t hold that against you when your wrongfully terminated. It shows a good work ethic when you show up to work everyday or when you’re schedule requires you to clock in for your job and also shows a consistent pattern of punctual attendance and dedication. A good thing about showing up to work before your scheduled shift is not only having the potential ability to clock in early and earn a few more dollars in your bi-weekly paycheck, but also when it comes time for your employer or acting manager on duty to drop the axe you for wrongful termination, you have former employee ammunition to fight back against your wrongful termination by showing the positive pattern that you always clocked in early for your job, making it more difficult for your former employer to prove their case against you why you were wrongfully terminated. Being wrongfully fired for no wrongdoing on your part and having your past attendance record come up as evidence of your positive or work ethic will convey a picture of oil and water not mixing, showing something is not right on the employer’s part why they terminated your employment.

 

 

5. Come to work dressed as if you run the company – You may have a low level position as an employee whether you’re full-time or part-time earning a regular hourly pay or annual salary. Most people come to work dressing the part, which means if there are low-level employee, they dress like one. if you think highly of yourself and see yourself in a higher position with the company or in a future position of Entrepreneurship where as you see yourself as inspiring “side hustle millionaire,” you’ll most likely come to work dressed as an executive of the company though you’re not earning executive salary. Moreover, dressing as if you have a high level position in the company helps to maintain humility and confidence in yourself despite what your employer thinks of you. It helps you to keep your cool in the workplace because you know not only are you dressed with sophistication, but you also know your employer is checking out your thinking patterns off of the strength of how you dress, act and speak despite the fact that they have a personal vendetta against you. Additionally, you virtually give your narcissist employer no choice in forcing their hand to show the utmost respect to you and speak to you with respect when they notice you come to work consistently dressed as if you’re a high-level executive or CEO of the company despite that you’re not making high-level money and also of the fact that your employer denies you a rightful pay raise. Look at your current job as basic training for side hustle entrepreneurship and a stepping stone to greatness. If you get your act right there as virtual dress rehearsal for running your own business in the future as a side hustle millionaire, you always dress the part even when the part doesn’t require you dressing as a high-level executive.

 

 

6. Avoid being within speaking distance of your employer as much as possible – your employer has no reason to walk across a corporate floor or any place on the job just to provoke you. In other words, if you work in a call center or a large corporate environment, your boss is not going to take the time to walk all the way across Yonder to start an argument with you or to say something ignorant. They’ll wait until you’re nearby to say or do something. Keeping your distance is a good thing as it’ll help you accomplish increased work productivity, maintain a positive state of mind, and help your day go smoothly. If you view your employer as a stalker, you’ll find creative ways to get the job done daily while staying far away from them unless they beckon for you to perform a job-related task.
