I live in CA. Yesterday I quit my job after being talked down to by a coworker who has no authority over me. She basically said I needed to be more "professional" when she in fact is very unprofessional, yelling instead of talking among other things. There were numerous other reasons for my decision. The boss called me later that day and sayin they would fix things and he wanted me to stay. Knowing that if I left a lot of things would be a mess I came into work today.
Today I went to that same coworker to very politely ask for my reimbursement from a form I turned in a week ago. She took a tone and eventually yelled at me to "GET OUT!" I was very frustrated and the HR lead told me to go outside with her and talk about it. I flipped off my coworker and muttered "B****" as I left. She then proceded to run after me and with her checkbook started striking me repeatedly. Now, i provoked it yes, but I still should not be attacked by a coworker. If they don't fire her could I sue?
