Bullying at work: ask the expert:

Bullying at work: ask the expert:

My boss is bullying me, but I work in an office which offers flexible working which is rare in my profession and I am well paid for my work which I generally enjoy. I don't think taking a grievance will make any difference [I have seen someone else go through this process and they didn't get anywhere]. Should I just leave and get a full-time job elsewhere or should I continue to suffer the stress caused by the bullying [which is causing me sleepless nights and stomach problems] and just try to keep my head down and hope he moves on to someone else?
