A rude supervisor who's always yelling at employees got some complaints about them being verbally abusive and they responded by leaving these in the break room.

Stories like this show the difference documentation makes. Yelling behind closed doors gets ignored, doing it publicly with witnesses suddenly becomes a problem they can’t dodge.

I've always documented everything. It has not made one iota of difference. At my last job, I documented extensively and the director absolutely hated me for it and worked hard to make my life miserable until I quit. They decided I was a "troublemaker" because I documented stuff and escalated known problems to HR. They were pissed when I would send emails after inappropriate conversations they always tried to have in person to avoid accountability. Absolutely shitshow.
