Ok so quick backstory, I'm 30 years old, and I am getting back on my feet after a rather rough bump in the road 5 years ago. I am currently working at a car dealership as a porter (I know its lame, but it pays ok and will tide me over until I can go back and finish college), I have been there longer than any other porter (high turnover rate I guess) and my boss told me after one year that I am now his eyes and ears for the wash bay. Basically I am in charge of training and some scheduling for weekends and special occasions. For the most part my coworkers and I get along just fine.
About 3 weeks ago though we get a new hire named Mitch. At first he was great, the first week there he was busting his ass and being just friendly as can be. The next week tho he ran over a hose (Not a HUGE deal but my boss hates having to replace popped hoses so he gets anal about them) I point this out to him and tell him to be more careful in the future. He puffs out his chest and literally runs up and bumps into me (btw Im about 6' 250lbs, hes like 5'8" 110lbs at MOST) and starts SCREAMING at the top of his lungs every swear word and insult he can think of. When I ask him if he is being serious, he drowns me out with baby and "retard" talk.
I thought this must have been a joke or he had a bad day but he has done this about 3 other times in the last 2 weeks to my other coworkers. Some of them have complained to our manager about it. Today after he flipped out for one trivial reason or another I went into my manager's office and told him something needs to be done about Mitch. All he said was "If I hear one more time about you guys fighting back there I am going to fire all of you" and when I explained the situation he said he would have a meeting with us to discuss it.
I let my coworkers know about this meeting only to find out my boss gave the same spiel to him after he complained, a week ago. So what do I do guys? I can't hit him btw.
