Harassment

I work for a child support agency. My job is highly stressful. I never receive a call for someone who is happy with their court orders, made by the Judge and not myself. Every phone call and client contact is from an unhappy obligee and obligor. I asked my Supervisor if we have to tolerate the cursing and verbal abuse from these clients and I was told YES, it is part of the job. I feel that it is harassment. P.S. I have 17 years at this agency, I am over 50 and I have multiple sclerosis and need my health insurance to pay for my medicine, so I can't just find another job. Are there harassment laws to prevent this client abuse? Or, is it part of my job?

When a person files harassment charges on you (harassment by e-mails), does a policeman call you and tell you? Or should you get papers served to you?
