Not even being in college makes things more interesting around here. A small, uninteresting town with nothing to do but glance at passing shops and daydream of buying trinkets with money you don’t have. (Y/N)’s eyelid’s droop in boredom as they walk along the sun baked sidewalk of Hill Valley.

#BIFF TANNEN FREE#
His actor’s too sweet and handsome.)įinishing class work early always has its perks of free time and earlier sleep, but it didn’t come without a cost, either. Obviously this could be taken as a meme or seriously, I don’t mind either way you see it, but c’mon, Biff Tannen deserves redemption.

(A/N: Two changes: this will take place in college, not high school like it was in the movie, and there’s no terrible r*pe plot line with Marty’s mom anymore. This improves culture and demonstrates to staff that the organisation will not tolerate bullies.Biff Tannen x Reader: Chapter One (Please read the author’s note) It used to be invariably the victim who left, but increasingly, we have seen employers showing bullies the door. But away from the screen, sometimes nothing works and one or other party has to leave the organisation. In Back to the Future, Biff ended up under a pile of manure and George got his girl. If bullying behaviour is identified, ACAS recommend a number of strategies: informal approaches to the alleged bully to communicate that their behaviour is unwelcome counselling for both parties and mediation between the parties. Both claims are difficult routes and require the employee to have made the employer aware that there is a problem.Īs an employer, you should make every effort to investigate claims of bullying promptly, objectively and speedily. The alternative, if they have suffered a psychiatric injury is to bring a personal injury claim. The damages awarded for such claims are capped by statute and accordingly often fall far short of a victim’s actual financial losses. Unless the conduct amounts to harassment, that is unwanted conduct relating to a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010, they have to rely on constructive unfair dismissal to seek redress. And this becomes an expensive management problem.Įmployees are often surprised to find that they cannot bring a free standing claim for bullying. Victims move on and the bully stays and picks on someone else. Bullying will not uncommonly lead to the employee taking time off work as sickness absence. The recipient often fails to report it and worries about being seen as weak or overreacting. Whatever form it takes, bullying eats away at the target’s confidence.

It may involve spreading malicious rumours copying critical emails to third parties, over bearing supervision, overloading a person with work and constant expressions of disappointment and criticism. Wilson describes himself as a ‘thin and sickly kid’ who was beaten up by bullies throughout his childhood, until he grew bigger than everybody and it stopped.īiff’s cartoon like behaviour clearly falls within with ACAS’s definition of bullying as ‘offensive, intimidating, malicious or insulting behaviour, an abuse or misuse of power through means that undermine, humiliate, denigrate or injure the recipient.’ Biff’s ultimate aim is to intimidate and humiliate George McFly.īut often workplace bullying is far more subtle and insidious than the strong arm tactics employed by Biff. Thomas F Wilson, who played Biff had no trouble summoning up the character of Biff from his childhood. Biff Tannen in ‘Back to the Future’ has gone down in history as one of the greatest bullies ever to crash onto our cinema screens.
