I've encountered this sort before more with the type being a permie rather than contractor. I've had to deal with guys like this both as a contractor and a permie, when I was permie I complained and no-one wanted to hear it or do anything about it so I left for a better job or started contracting. When I was a contractor and experienced this sort of behavior towards me (and witnessed it on others) I decided to look for another contract after the current one was around 2 months due to expire and I left and I didn't say a thing as it's just not worth it.
You could always buy a cheap 2nd hand android device in cash, never use it with personal accounts or your internet at home, setup an email account using the device in an internet cafe and then months later when they've forgotten about you using free WiFi in a shopping center mail all his colleagues with an anonymous e-mail stating why he is an absolute knob end. And turn your mobile phone off for tracking when you are sending the email in the shopping center. Sorted. Don't forget to get the email addresses before you leave the work premises ! Disguise yourself with a hat and sunglasses in the shopping mall for good measure !!! Remember the wise words of this forum that echo in eternity .... "Don't get mad, get even..".Last edited by sbakoola; 11 May 2018, 12:32.Comment
