I am a female employee currently working in the maintenance field. For the past year, I have been facing numerous problems at my current job location. Despite one of my managers misbehaving with me, when I reported the incident and documented everything he said, the management sided with him. They issued warning letters to me, stating that I recorded the incident during office hours and threatened disciplinary action against me.
I have applied multiple times for a transfer from my current job location, but my officer in charge is not forwarding my letter. I work for a government organization, and this job is crucial for me. However, each day in my office feels like hell, and I am extremely disturbed here. They are withholding my application for transfer. Please help me.

It seems like you are going through a tough time in your life. Please remember, tough times never last, but tough people do.
Suggestions for Moving Forward
Here are some suggestions for you to work upon:
- Stop treating yourself like a victim. Accept the situation and move forward.
- Recognize that you are currently in a weak spot as the management didn’t support you. Talk to some people you can trust and see how you can work out your way.
- I know it could be difficult, but focus on your work and don’t give anyone a chance to complain.
- Carry some music with you to work and listen to it during your break time. You can also carry a book.
- Make some new friends at work.
- Take one day at a time and remember that there is a higher power who is there to take care of you if you take charge of your situation.
- Focus on other areas of your life. Join a hobby or a group. I remember joining Bharat Soka Gakkai at one point in my life, and it was really great.
- Talk to your management again and see if they can understand your point of view.
- Write a letter or email to the head of your department or unit, focusing on facts and not feelings.
- Sometimes we have to be politically savvy, so even if it calls for apologizing to that difficult manager, do that. Some people who become managers need a bit of ego massage.
Remember, you can always come to citeHR and share your feelings. There are many of us who care for you and pray for you.
Wish you all the best!
