How do I deal with workplace "fun"

    There's messing that goes on for the laugh in my workplace.

    I'm up for having fun like anyone else and I'm able to have a laugh. But something happened twice that I'm not happy with.

    I'm being accused for something I didn't do and when the truth eventually comes out, this person does not apologise.

    I let the first time slide but it happened again where I was blamed for something which I didn't do to them.

    Sometimes you got to take one for the team, did you get a written warning, if not keep having the crack at work and make sure tell the lads blame the new hire the next time.

    @Cherry Wood I'm being accused for something I didn't do and when the truth eventually comes out, this person does not apologise.

    The first half of that sentence gives the impression that this is regarding one incident, but the second half gives the impression that there have been several ongoing incidents!!??

    How does the truth usually come out with this person? And even if they don't apologise, do others at least get to see the truth too? Was the accusation by management, or verbally from your colleagues?

    Unless you elaborate more I can't see how posters here can be of much help.
