What does a manager have the right to?

If employees make mistakes, the manager has three legal ways to punish:

• make a remark;
• reprimand;
• dismiss under an article of the Labor Code.

Disciplinary action is applied to the employee within six months after the error is made, or within two years if the error is identified during an audit. Vacations, sick leave, and the period of criminal proceedings are deducted from the calendar six months.

For the same offense, an employee is punished once, for which an appropriate order is issued. Not mentioned among these methods are shouting, insults and personal attacks.

Where to go

Conflicts between management and subordinates have a detrimental effect on labor efficiency, team atmosphere and employee motivation.

After a conflict, the first step is to conduct confidential negotiations with the manager. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement on the issue, the offended employee has the right to seek protection from third-party organizations.

Insult, and especially public - humiliation of the honor and dignity of an individual. The individual is protected by the Constitution.

An employee can complain about his immediate supervisor to a higher official in the organization. If the complaint does not bring results, the company remains indifferent, the employee has the right to appeal to the labor inspectorate, prosecutor's office, police or court.

Upon receiving a complaint, government services conduct an inspection, evaluate the evidence and decide whether to prosecute the person for violations or not. The procedure for considering a complaint, conducting an inspection and making a decision is regulated by regulatory legal acts.

An application to the prosecutor's office is drawn up by analogy with an application to the labor inspectorate.

Mandatory points of the complaint:

• time, place, circumstances of the conflict;
• information about the employer;
• information about the applicant.

Lawsuit

The most convenient instrument of retaliation with a material bias for insults and humiliation from colleagues or an employer is a lawsuit.

With the help of a statement of claim, the offended employee has the right to demand compensation for moral or material damage caused by the person, refuting the public insult.

Adequate requirements when filing a claim:

• for compensation for moral damage - you will have to prove the fact of suffering;
• on compensation for material damage and losses - in case of forced treatment, loss of earnings, dismissal;
• about a public refutation and apology to a person - typical for humiliating publications in the media and social networks. The costs of placing publications are borne by the guilty party if the fact of insult is proven;
• on the collection of state fees for consideration of the claim from the losing party.

Moral damages are generally difficult to prove. However, if insults are inflicted publicly, in the media or social networks, the court independently assesses psychological suffering in accordance with internal conviction.

The burden of proof lies with the plaintiff, therefore, before going to court, a substantial evidence base should be prepared so that the court’s decision is indisputable.

What is the punishment?

Punishment for insults depends on the consequences. In practice, courts are limited to administrative penalties unless significant harm is caused.

How to “put in place” an arrogant boss
(Methods of confronting tyrant bosses)

Bosses are different: smart and stupid, kind and evil, cunning and not so cunning. Unfortunately, there are also real “scumbags” who for some reason decided that their position and social status allow them to humiliate the dignity of those who depend on them to one degree or another. What can you do, money and power often spoil people.

You shouldn’t give in to big bosses who call you names, sputter and stomp their feet in rage. You need to be able to talk to them. And do not forget about your interests. There are behavioral strategies developed by psychologists specifically for such cases. If kissing your boss somewhere below the back is not your style, read this article carefully

You may be the target of disdain or humiliation for showing up to work without a tie; for being accidentally late; for not understanding the order that was given to you, etc. The most common situation is that you made some mistake. Your manager discovered it and is letting you know that you shouldn't have done that, that you're no good, etc. This is done in a rude and insulting manner, very often in front of witnesses. Unfortunately, many managers consider the opportunity to point out their mistakes to a subordinate as another reason to show their superiority. They love to focus attention on this, savor the employee’s miscalculations, thereby humiliating him as a person.

Your possible actions:

Option 1. Of course, instead of listening to the boss’s nonsense, you can always publicly declare in appropriate terms that you are not on the same path with such a boss. After which, naturally, all that remains is to leave the office with your head held high. “Having said this, the count retired with dignity. All in white,” the Strugatskys, it seems. But on the way to the labor exchange, you will ample your own pride, remembering how you put “that cretin” in his place. True, a less pleasant scenario may happen: the boss’s security will take charge of you and you will not leave the company on your own, but fly out into the street with your things.

Option 2. You flare up and answer in the style of “he’s a fool”: you say that he has no right to criticize you, because he himself makes mistakes, he himself is late, etc. And in general, you are a qualified specialist and are able to cope with the work without his instructions.

This is a bad choice. Bosses don't like it when subordinates point out their shortcomings, especially in public. Therefore, I cannot predict the result. Most likely, it will be the same as in point 1. You will lose your job.

Option 3. You fall to your knees, tear your shirt on your chest, sprinkle ashes on your head, humbly apologize and ask for mercy on you. Then say that you are sorry, that it was stupid on your part and that it will never happen again.

This option is slightly better than the previous one. By replacing anger with mercy, the boss can grant you his forgiveness. Only one thing is bad. If you have even a drop of self-esteem, you will not be able to get rid of the feeling that your feet have been wiped all over you for a long time. In addition, by resignedly accepting humiliation addressed to you, you recognize your own insignificance. By demonstrating a lack of pride and self-respect, you risk that not only your manager, but also your fellow employees will eventually stop taking you into account. The fact is that the phenomenon of imitation is very developed in organizations. And if an authoritative leader or boss chooses you as a “whipping boy,” sooner or later his behavior will begin to be copied by other employees. A flock follows its leader - the ancients knew about this.

I am convinced that you deserve better. After all, you came to the company to sell your professional knowledge, experience and skills, and not yourself personally. Therefore, showing self-esteem is quite appropriate. You can defend your interests and keep your job.

Option 4. First, it is best to let your boss talk, that is, “blow off steam,” before attempting to respond. Wait until he is able to listen to you. Next, you admit that you made a mistake, that you regret it and will be more careful next time. Then you add that your boss (boss) speaks in a rather harsh tone, and you do not see the need for this. Secondly, it is best to sort things out with your boss in a confidential environment.

And one more thing: do not try to give your boss ultimatums like: “If this happens again, I will immediately leave your company.” Bosses hate it when subordinates set conditions for them. In the end, you can always write a letter of resignation without Chinese warnings. It’s better to simply say that this style of behavior prevents you from concentrating on your job responsibilities. Then politely but firmly ask your boss to moderate his ardor.

Of course, there is a risk that you will be fired, even if you raise objections in a correct manner. There are psychopathic bosses who do not tolerate any manifestations of self-respect on the part of their subordinates. They require a slightly different approach. (I’ll talk about this below.) But most managers respect those employees who honestly express their own opinions in the appropriate - confident and correct form, without hurting the pride of their boss

***
Humiliation can take not only a verbally aggressive form. No less offensive is the so-called. passive derogatory behavior. These include offensive jokes, ironic remarks addressed to you, sarcastic smiles, a politely dismissive tone of orders, and contemptuous notes in your boss’s voice... All this is done with the aim of humiliating you, but is done in a veiled manner and as if casually .

In such cases, you should not pretend that you do not notice the humiliation. If you remain silent, you seem to be agreeing to treat you in the same way in the future, recognizing the boss’s right to consider you something insignificant, not worthy of special attention and, especially, respect.

In such situations, the following strategy helps. Don't try to suppress your feelings. Say that your boss’s behavior bothers you and that you don’t like jokes about you at all. Ask him directly what this means.

When you seek clarification, you have the opportunity to “put” your counterpart in his place. That is, you caught him (her) playing not entirely honestly, demand an explanation and make it clear that you should be treated as an equal. Moreover, you do this in a correct and confident manner, so a good relationship between you and the boss may well improve

***
However, there are bosses for which applying the above strategies is not only ineffective, but also dangerous. Usually these are bosses with an extremely unbalanced temperament and excessive excitability, which regularly finds outlet in outbursts of uncontrollable emotions: from “quiet tyranny” to wild fits. To sort things out with them at such moments means to bring big trouble on your head.

Oddly enough, such bosses are often loved and respected by their subordinates. This is the classic “father-director” type. Everyone believes in him. He is the unquestioned leader. The workers treat him as nothing less than a benefactor. And there are reasons for this. He punishes and rewards at his own discretion, usually does not like to fire people due to staff reduction (“better to win, but together”), everyone can turn to him with a personal problem. For this they forgive him a lot: mistakes, bad habits, rudeness.

But when he's nervous, it's better to stay away from him. If his nerves are at their limit, he gives a beating to everyone who comes under his hot hand. And at the same time he does not stand on ceremony in his expressions. True, he quickly forgets about it. Therefore, at such moments it is useful to remember the old soldier’s wisdom: “Away from the authorities - closer to the kitchen.” Try to stay out of his sight for a while, and the conflict will resolve itself.

Another type of boss is much more dangerous - sadistic psychopaths, also known as “classic” tyrants. Unlike the previous ones, these humiliate their subordinates not in a fit of uncontrollable anger, but consciously and purposefully, for their own pleasure. And if such a boss chooses you as his victim, you will not be able to sit quietly in a corner.

There are quite a few social psychopaths in leadership positions today. Unfortunately, current life in our country lends itself to this in every possible way. They are characterized by excellent “fighting” qualities, a complete lack of remorse, vanity and uncriticism in assessing their own actions. Plus the ever-present syndrome of suspicion of everyone and everything in all sorts of intrigues. The arrogance characteristic of such types (a strong type of nervous system!), combined with infallible self-confidence, usually paralyzes the will and ability of resistance in the victim. In addition, they have a well-developed instinct for people who are psychologically weaker than them. And well-developed intuition allows you to avoid real fighters who are capable of adequately responding to such a style of “leadership.” All these qualities allow social psychopaths to achieve significant career heights.

It has been established that the psychotype of a tyrant boss, oddly enough, almost completely coincides with the psychotype of... a serial killer. This is a bird of a feather. Only one receives the highest pleasure by shedding rivers of blood, while the other longs to “drink” it drop by drop, tormenting and humiliating his subordinates day after day. For both, primary motivations - sexual lust, painful aggressiveness or thirst for revenge, are bizarrely transformed into an intoxication with power and a desire to dominate people. In everyday life, both are often gray and unremarkable people. How can one remember the quiet teacher Chikatilo or the “simple worker” Onoprienko. And office monsters, who terrorize entire teams at work, are often henpecked at home by their wife or mistress.

Even coming to a company where a psychopathic boss rules is sometimes difficult. Terrorized workers jump up like automatons and rattle off the memorized text. Like, our company is the best company in the world, etc. Although, this makes a great impression on people who are inclined to be timid in front of strong authorities. (“A real leader! And what a team he has!”) Such a boss masterfully finds out exactly the method that is applicable to a particular employee. It will make him feel guilty, it will scare him. Everything is used - an ironic smile at the right moment, and a rude shout.

The ideal employee for such a boss is a slave, whose knees should tremble just from the mere sight of the boss. And such managers begin to intimidate their employees already when applying for a job - at the interview. Therefore, you will always have time to weigh the pros and cons and decide for yourself whether it is worth working in such a company. I do not urge you to loudly slam the door and give up any attempts to occupy the desired position in such an organization. Just prepare yourself for a certain style of behavior with your future boss.

The most important thing is to learn to shake off that sticky fear that they will try to cover you with. A sadistic boss always tries to put his subordinate not just in dependence, but in alarming dependence, and if he succeeds, then he brings this anxiety to convulsions. Don't give in. And get into less verbal altercations with him. Such bosses are experienced demagogues and brilliant orators who shamelessly and skillfully confuse their opponents. They have well-developed conversation techniques. They know how to confuse their interlocutor with one remark and prevent the development of a thought if for some reason they do not like this thought. In addition, such bosses have a very perverted logic of thinking: “If an employee contradicts me, it means he is not afraid. If he’s not afraid, it means he doesn’t respect him.” Therefore, those who are not afraid to openly object to their boss do not stay at such a company for long.

And protecting yourself from psychopathic bosses is easy. If you are too annoyed by the terrifying “dances” of your boss, you just need to mentally put a wall between him and yourself. Create a screen between you. To do this, imagine an impenetrable wall. What you build it from is a matter of your imagination. Made of brick, steel, armored glass, just dense air, a magnetic field... And you will suddenly see how the big boss splashing with saliva and stomping his feet will become absolutely indifferent to you.

In this case the change is striking. They suddenly become polite and calm. Even friendly ones. Most often, they develop a feeling of respect beyond their control for a person whom they cannot “break through.”

Psychologists also advise covering such bosses with an imaginary glass. But this is no longer entirely humane - they begin to feel very uncomfortable, get nervous and, feeling their powerlessness in front of you, begin to take out their anger on other employees.

Learn to evoke such calm indifference in your feelings and turn it on when you need it. At least with this technique you are guaranteed against unwanted pressure on your personality

***
Finally, I’ll tell you how to “put down” an overly proactive boss. There are bosses who do not seem to be bloodthirsty, but are quite capable of driving their subordinates to quiet madness with their idiotic undertakings and “valuable” instructions. For example, you are a qualified specialist and have been developing a project for six months. Finally, inspired, you take it to the big boss for approval. What follows is a typical situation. The big boss, who understands as much about the specifics of your activity as a hare does in geometry, nevertheless considers it his duty to point out your mistakes and demands that you make adjustments. You understand that this is a disaster for the project, that the proposed changes put an end to it. You understand, but you can't do anything. It is useless to argue with the boss - they enter the boss’s office with their own opinion, and leave with the one they know.

If a client swears obscenely without addressing anyone, this will not be an insult to anyone present. And if the addressee is a specific employee present, he may regard this as an insult. Of course, it is also important what exactly the offender says/does. Here it is rational to turn to sociological research. They identified the offending factors empirically. The following may be considered offensive:

• all obscene or obscene expressions (usually swearing, swearing);
• various comparisons - for example, with animals or objects;
• unwanted, cynical touching;
• obscene gestures;
• movements that may result in clothing or part of it being torn off from the victim.

Read on to learn about the signs and articles for insulting a person (an employee) in the workplace.

What should you do if your boss yells and humiliates your subordinate at work?

Since 2012, the Criminal Code punishes only insulting a person in power. All others should contact the Administrative Code. Concept and legal characteristics Article 5.61 of the Code of Administrative Offenses speaks of insult in general. The official situation of this offense is not considered in any separate section of the article.

What exactly can be considered an insult? Two things are important here:

• the offender seeks to humiliate the dignity and/or honor of his victim;
• the actions of the perpetrator are clothed in some indecent form, that is, they “do not suffer” from the ethics of words and/or actions.

Such an offense must have a perpetrator and an addressee. This can be explained with a simple example. Let’s assume that a client came to the company’s office with complaints and contacted an available manager. The issue was considered, but it was not immediately possible to resolve the problem.

How to behave if your boss is yelling?

You cannot follow his lead; you must answer firmly and calmly. If you remain calm and show confidence, most likely, reproaches and insults will stop, as they will not make any sense. But outright rudeness should also not be tolerated, therefore, during the next humiliating escapades, you must try to put the boss in his place, without sending him anywhere.
You should calmly and confidently remind your boss that it is at least uncivilized to behave this way during a business conversation, and the tone in no way corresponds to the business style of communication accepted in the company. Don’t forget to ask your boss what specific issues you can’t cope with and ask him to set an exact date for solving the production problem. It would not be amiss to write down each claim and respond in writing to each point in the form of a memo.

Insult in the workplace or what to do if you are insulted at work?

Responsibility for insults at work If the boss behaves rudely not with the goal of firing you and expelling you from the team, then such behavior can be regarded as bullying of subordinates. Such actions are qualified as an insult and, depending on the content of the words, can lead to administrative liability for the speaker with a fine of 1 to 3 thousand rubles. What to do in this case? First of all, you need to make it clear that you will not tolerate such an attitude towards yourself.
If you can’t come to an agreement with your manager, then you should take radical measures - write a statement to the prosecutor’s office regarding intentional insults.

Does a boss have the right to insult a subordinate?

Attention

This appeal can be presented in the form of a claim to protect one’s honor, one’s dignity, or the reputation of a business person with compensation for moral harm. In this case, the court may impose responsibility on the boor to pay a certain amount of money. If a statement on a private charge for insult or slander was accepted, then the person risks being held criminally liable for a crime of slander or insult to personality.

According to Article 129 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, libel is the dissemination of false information that discredits the dignity and honor of another person or undermines the reputation of a citizen. According to Article 130 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, insult is a humiliation of the dignity and honor of another person, which is expressed in the form of indecent content. An indecent form of speech includes obscene language.

• In this case, if the offender is a colleague, you can complain to one of the managers.
• If you cannot resolve a conflict within an enterprise, you need to contact representatives of the law. It is interesting that the Code of Administrative Offenses has Article 28.4, which directly states: cases under Article 5.61 are the responsibility of the prosecutor. So lawyers sometimes recommend filing an application with the prosecutor’s office.
• Or you can go straight to court.
  

  Important

  In this case, we will no longer be talking about a complaint, but about a statement of claim, but this in no way changes the essence of the matter. Indeed, in both cases, the offended person defends his rights.

  In any case, the most important part of the case is the evidence. It is best if there are witnesses who are willing to testify.

  True, if the offender is a boss, you can’t always count on the testimony of eyewitnesses to the situation.

  Harassment in the Workplace: Standards, Punishments, and Helpful Tips

  According to the law, no one has the right to insult anyone, regardless of social status. In practice, of course, sometimes something different happens. In principle it's normal. Sometimes they even beat me. If a man. This is also normal, a man must endure pain, starting in the army. Moreover, now it’s not a monarchy, they won’t beat you to the death with ramrods and Cossack whips if the master doesn’t like it. However, I repeat, according to the law, it is impossible to beat and insult someone based on their social status; such laws have been published since 1917. When the proletarian was given rights. Women were also given rights, equalizing them with men in the social sphere. If an official or boss insults you, you can go to court if you are a woman. If you are a man, then it is shameful to go to court. In our country they don’t even go to court over wages; it’s shameful for a man to argue over wage money and sue his employer.

  Insulting a boss by a subordinate

  In addition, the Russian Constitution protects the dignity of the individual. This is stated in Article 21. What to do? The issue for Russia is quite complex. A huge number of people suffer abuse in their workplaces every day.

  
  Experts (psychologists, sociologists) note that this is currently the sad specificity of our country. This is especially true in situations where the offender is the boss and the victim is a subordinate. Even if polite communication is stipulated in the employment contract, this does not guarantee the protection of employees. Sometimes people simply have no way to fight their offenders. However, if such an opportunity arises, it must be taken advantage of. We will tell you further about how to write a complaint statement about being insulted by obscene language at work.
  Other ways to prove an insult include recordings from office video cameras, especially if not only video is recorded, but also audio is recorded. It is possible to prove verbal abuse if the victim had a voice recorder on at the time of the conversation. When submitting such evidence for consideration, lawyers recommend simultaneously attaching a transcript (however, if the sound recording is of good quality, there is no need for it). Only high-quality and correctly collected evidence will help you win in such a case. Read below about the penalties for insulting someone in the workplace. Punishment for insult in the workplace Since we are talking about an article of the Administrative Code, liability will be administrative. There is only one punishment - a fine. What amount can we talk about? In this matter, everything depends on who committed the offense. Article 5.61 talks about three categories of people - citizens, officials and legal entities.

  • First you need to understand the situation. It is not considered an insult: If the boss made any comments about the work - the fulfillment or non-fulfillment of your duties and the conversation did not concern your personal qualities, and profanity was not used.
  • Unless in response to an insult from a subordinate. Although, for such cases there are disciplinary sanctions. In general, no one has the right to insult anyone, regardless of the situation.
  • I would answer this question this way: Does a boss have the right to insult a subordinate? I think that for any sane person, it is clear that, of course, no boss has the slightest such right. For such behavior, you can turn to different authorities or at least to higher authorities.

  Insulting a subordinate by a superior article

  If there is no response from the boss, you can threaten to file a complaint with the labor inspectorate. In such cases, boorish bosses face significant penalties:

  • officials - 1000-5000 rubles;
  • individual entrepreneurs – 1000-5000 rubles;
  • legal entities - 30,000-50,000 rubles.

  As a rule, if the inspector takes the plaintiff’s side, legal entities are fined the maximum amount. The application should describe the situation in essence, indicate the number of the employment contract, and leave your contact information. If you have evidence (audio or video recordings, correspondence, testimony), then you can be sure of the success of your activities.

  Insulting a subordinate by a boss, article RB

  At some large enterprises, such situations (with a certain amount of connivance) can arise daily and repeatedly.

  • Insults from superiors towards subordinates are another large group of cases.
  • Finally, a person at his workplace may be insulted by an outsider - for example, a client of a company, a buyer of a store.

  When it comes to verbal abuse, how important is it whether it was obscene? This is an essential detail when preparing a criminal complaint. However, you can insult a person using words only in literary language, but the meaning will still be obscene. Rules on this issue In all cases of insult, Article 5.61 will have to be followed. Article 130 of the Criminal Code, which is still sometimes mentioned on various Internet resources, has not been in force for several years.

Chiefs- people are responsible. They make sure that every employee works productively and brings profit to the company. Their work is accompanied by stressful situations, and how the boss is able to withstand them depends on what type of leader he is.

If he fast gets excited and does not know how to control his own, then this is the classic type of “leader-father”. He punishes and rewards everyone at his discretion, loves when subordinates turn to him with personal requests and has the authority of an indisputable leader. He is loved and respected in the company. Most employees treat him as a person who will help out in difficult times and will never fire him from work without a serious reason.

But in minutes It is better to stay away from irritation and anger from the “father leader”. He yells at everyone who gets under his hot hand. At the same time, he can threaten with dismissal, insult and humiliate the “careless employee.” But after an hour he forgets everything and talks to him as if nothing happened. It is useless to sort things out with the “leader-father” and express your opinion to him during his “wild fit”; he considers himself irreplaceable and cannot stand it when someone contradicts him. Therefore, if your boss belongs to this type of leader, then try not to catch his eye during conflict situations, and when he yells at you, listen to him carefully and pretend that you completely agree with him. Express your opinion later, when the “father-leader” has calmed down and is in a good mood.

Much harder establish contact with a “tyrant leader” who, by nature of his character, likes to command and yells for his own pleasure. Unfortunately, recently this type of boss has been found especially often in leadership positions. Their inherent arrogance, combined with power, makes them real despots and tyrants. The only way to please the “tyrant boss” is through sycophancy and lies, since he is not familiar with such concepts as honesty, remorse and self-criticism. Unlike the “leader-father,” the “boss-tyrant” is not respected in the team, but he constantly keeps his subordinates in fear. He deliberately humiliates them, punishes them by depriving them of their bonuses, and enjoys his power.

Under his command Necessarily There are several people for whom he deliberately does not raise their salaries and on whom he most often takes his brunt. The “boss is a tyrant” has an excellent instinct for people who are psychologically weaker than him. He makes them “whipping boys”, and he deliberately avoids people who are capable of giving him a worthy rebuff. Oddly enough, all these qualities allow the “tyrant boss” to achieve the favor of top management and significant career heights.

After all, on of people, inclined to respect a person for his “fighting” qualities, he makes a great impression. They speak of him with admiration: “This is what a real leader should be!” The “tyrant boss” has the ability to masterfully transform himself: in front of his management he is businesslike and successful, and when communicating with a subordinate, he smiles ironically and tries to make him guilty. This type of boss is very vindictive, insidious and vindictive. Their goal is to humiliate and insult their subordinate, to take revenge on him for everything and everyone. Therefore, it is very important when working with such a boss not to give him the opportunity to choose you as a “whipping boy.”

For this, during communication With him, maintain your self-esteem, be confident and do not be afraid of him. If he starts yelling at you in public, don't blush, don't make excuses, and don't apologize. In the event that his accusations are not true, look him straight in the eyes and say: “Let's communicate with you in a calm tone!” or “I find it much more pleasant to listen to you when you speak calmly.” If you say these words in a loud and confident voice, they will definitely stop the yelling boss. Hearing them, he will immediately fall silent, but after a while he may again try to raise his voice at you. And here it is very important not to express complaints to him in an irritated tone and not to leave the workplace slamming the door. At the moment, you should only be concerned about one thing - making your boss respect you. Speak in a calm and business-like voice: “It seems that you don’t understand now, but I can no longer continue the conversation with you in this tone.” After such words, the boss will lower his tone, and you move on to expressing your opinion on the topic under discussion, no longer hurting the pride of the “tyrant boss.”

If he constantly sends sarcastic remarks and jokes at you, do not ignore them. Choose a time when your boss will be alone in the workplace and directly ask him why he is prejudiced against you. Explain that you like your work, but you have the impression that something in your behavior does not suit him. When communicating, be correct and calm. Even if the “tyrant boss” asks you to write a letter of resignation, behave with dignity and do not get into verbal altercations with him.

Main do not forget that we are treated the way we ourselves allow. Love yourself, develop your knowledge, prove yourself to be an initiative and hardworking person so that you are respected and appreciated by your work colleagues. And even the “tyrant boss” will not raise his voice or dare to yell at a valuable employee.
