    My boss is a *%$! By KARIN RIVES, News & Observer, NC
    Few employees have a union to turn to when concerns arise in the workplace. And venting openly in the office or on the shop floor can be hazardous -- especially if the boss is the problem.

    So workers head to the Web in growing numbers to lodge their complaints, in the hopes that someone, somewhere, will listen.

    The Herman Group, a human resource consulting company in Greensboro, is one of the latest to offer workers such a venue. Its www.CorporateSuicideWatch.com has attracted 14 responses so far from workers nationwide since its October start, even though it has yet to be promoted.

    Why are we seeing these sites pop up?
