Dear Ms Walters, The purpose of my writing is to inform you about workplace harassment. I am experiencing mental torture because of the unhealthy environment in the office. Since I joined the firm on May 10th, 2021, Mr Smith and Mr Mark is indulged in frequent harassment during office hours. Mr Smith is the main culprit, and instead of stopping him, Mr Mark always joins him. Both are my teammate and are junior software developers. Firstly, the major incident occurred on Monday, May 24th, 2021. Purposely pointing towards me, Mr Smith cracked a racial joke while the team was having lunch in the cafeteria at 2 PM break. I felt incredibly embarrassed. The second event, which concerns me, took place on Friday, May 28th, 2021. They posted a picture of a white master beating his black slave with a hunter. Furthermore, to investigate, you may review the CCTV footage for the cafeteria incident. Also, I have attached the image that was pinned to my desk on Friday. I am looking forward to seeing prompt action from your side. Your kind cooperation would be most appreciated. Best regards Mike
