Bully at work?

Pride goeth before the fall. Physical confrontation is never good. As suggested, ignore him and do your best.

Record everything in writing, time, place, witnesses etc.

In the meantime don't retaliate but be polite with a "Thank You" as already suggested...nothing annoys a protaganist more than forgiveness.

When you feel you have sufficient evidence, witnesses etc. approach the manager/owner and present your case.

Should all that fail, sort it out man o man outside of work.

Let management know this harassment is illegal and you want then to address it before you take it up with the EEOC.

This but be tactful about it. Have evidence to back up your complaint as well. The key thing to remember is to CYA.

Also check with the other workers he is being a prick to and see if you can get them to document their instances too. Never underestimate the power of a group having a complaint.
