The time the agency sex pest didn’t get away with it

A good read…

And we should read this and believe that good triumphed over evil?
Dr Mumbo..there is no evidence to suggest this woman was any good. Even sharing this story seems a little insincere. She played on relationships to exact this result. It reads as sad and one sided. Her level of malevolence is not to be ignored.
“The VP got fired and i got a job”. Good for you.
To quote Trump. SAD!!

How good is this!

A great read and absolutely thrilled at the result.

On a side note, it also highlights the pivotal role of HR and having the right person in that role.

I daresay the author may have still been working in that agency if HR had of followed correct procedure and disciplined the VP.

The bullying culture in media is disgraceful

I love, love, love this story. Better than MAFS!!!

Not hard to figure out who this is about.

Ah yes. That sounds familiar. I had similar experiences at an agency, let’s call it [edited under Mumbrella’s comment moderation policy].

This is one fabulous story among many that don’t have such a happy ending.

I worked for a leading ad agency and was an EA to the founder and CEO. The agency was situated in two buildings. The main multi-story building housed everyone, and the house-like building out the back, was where he worked with… his EA.

After multiple sexual comments and advances towards me, which I dismissed, he too turned on me much like the brave girl in the story. I, as logically as possible, went through the chains of command to be heard – but no-one cared to address the situation for fear of losing their jobs, and also – that this was his usual behaviour. And, yes he was married as well, and having an affair interstate.

I pleaded with a female senior exec, who persuaded him to move into the main building to be closer to the team. I thought I was safe….but after a number of weeks he had an anger outburst around a small detail of me accepting a call from a large client wanting to meet with him, but it was during the time he had his usual affair with his interstate missus. He was yelling such abuse at me, his spit was flying everywhere – and no-one dared to stop him. No-one, and this was in full view of 12 people.

After that, I escalated my cry for help, but was released from the job with no pay, and no representation. They said it was him, or me….and of course they were not going to remove him.

I ended up in the doctors shaking from the ordeal and needed to find myself another job. Horrendous.

Dr Mumbo please keep posting stories like this…such an incredible read

Or just another sex pest in the advertising industry yourself? Nobody else would have such a disgusting, displaced response to the one win for survivors in a sea of defeats.

is this real? Maybe it’s my search terms but I’m googling and googling and can’t find anything that obviously links to this

I read this this morning and felt strnage about this.

I felt indignant for the woman

I felt happy for the happy ending.

But here at 3pm in the afternoo I feel a little duped.

“Reddit” “ProRevenge” “anonymous redditer”. Red flags all.

I read @Really ‘s comment..and thought it was a bit strident.

But something just made me feel that this story wasn’t real. It was a fiction. A fable. A frankenstein of figments.

I dont believe it. And I actually agree with @really.

Why is this story so fake?

And moreover, why is everyone (toxic feminists mostly) applauding the demise of a business and another human being?

I would love to hear the other side of this drama..but we never will..because these days only one side seems to matters

This reads like bad fantasy vengeance fiction.

Sadly the only thing I think is true is that she worked at an agency, was hit on by her boss, and then put onto a lost cause account. Whether those two last points are related? Maybe. Likely. It’s sadly a common and frequent scenario. Probably one worth investigating rather than copy pasting reddit comments. Took me a while to realize this wasn’t buzzfeed.

+1

“Real Agency Stories” are way better than the usual drivel of company announcements and ad standards complaints.

Would love this to be a regular thing.

Posted in r/ProRevenge a few days ago, comments from OP say this happened in Portugal

@Really? – Dude. You need to stop doing what you’re doing. It’s not OK.

If you use the term “toxic feminists” you are part of the problem.

The demise of a sexual predator*

Sadly, the world isn’t this kind. I wish this was true but everything points to it being nothing more than a feel-good fable.

Quoting Trump at the end of a story about sexual harassment. Bold move.

So the fate of the sexual predator and bully matters but not the victim? Whether you believe this story or not I find it incredible that the person you feel sorry for is the bad guy.

If toxic feminism means celebrating that a creep who abuses his position for sexual gratification is held to account, then sign me up!

But, I get it’s hard for you. Why don’t you hang up your sketch pad, and artline pen, and retire to your cave to sulk about women taking over and ruining things, emerging every so often to leave annonymous comments on industry publications with a sentance structre redolent of that fictional ECD tosser in the novel ‘e’?

@@Aesop perhaps the problem is not as you say “……..that it’s hard for you” it is that, in fact, it’s not.

Quoting Trump ..pretty much says it’s all really doesn’t it.
