He was harrasing me on daily basis and he was forcing me to go and on his shift so that after his acting as Station commander finished ill work with him,i refused and decided to to report him to his senior of which she was a woman thinking she will understand my situation,but unfortunately i didn't know that im reporting to his girlfriend at that time who is now his wife.
