This thread is being created so people -- generally, those people who can't seem to resist talking about off-topic junk in the Target coupon thread -- have a place to talk about shopping at Target and other miscellaneous matters.

All you folks who hang out in the Target coupon thread, start hanging out here instead! When you've got something relevant to post about Target coupons, please post about it in the Target coupon thread! We'd love to hear about it, but NOT about your dog, your cat, your mom, your genital herpes, your... well, you get the idea.

Thanks for your advice, m2c. hug I just finished writing up what I could remember of the situation and will probably type it up tomorrow and obtain copies to give to my boss and HR. Gosh I'm really starting to hate my job more and more. Frown I love working with the students, but the work environment has gone nutty!
Comfort Ugh, that super-sux!! I'm so sorry that happened to you.

I would DEFINITELY go to HR. Your supervisor's reaction is totally inadequate. Was there anyone else around who could corroborate your story?

Anyone who acts like that could seriously be a danger in the future (if she has no boundaries at work like that, what won't she do??). You shouldn't have to work around someone who could be a danger to you.

I am sorry! That is crazy!!! You should have it documented and put in the file in HR - if there is anyone who can corroborate your story that would be great! If you have any other incidents - or documentation - make sure you file that as well. I really am sorry - you shouldn't have to work in a situation that is that hostile, intimidating/threatening, and negative!! Sending HUGS & POSITIVE THOUGHTS!!!!!! hug

laugh out loud That is so funny! It's amazing to me how fascinated other children are by babies. Little ones come up to us all the time at the park wanting to talk to us, stare at him, play with his toys. Smilie

Quote from sungoddess7 :
Ranting Ok, had a crappy end to my work day... I have this co-worker that is borderline nuts. She does things very oddly and differently, but I never really let her bug me or let what she does bother me. I'm pretty easy going. Well, she decides to flip out on me today - full on yelling and finger jabbing and head bobbing/weaving. Called me a liar and that what I was saying (to defend against her crazy accusations) were lies. EEK! WTH?!? This came out of left field. Luckily (or maybe not) my supervisor was there and saw/heard the whole thing. Whenever I tried to say something or to clarify whatever it was she was incoherently rambling about, she would yell some more and not let me speak. Really, she was acting like such a child! (And, she has a Masters degree!!) I was so shocked. I honestly did not do anything, but this girl really has the mentality that everyone is out to get her (probably because she is a bit of a back-stabber and such so people tend to shy away from her). My supervisor could not get control of the situation and so I just let the co-worker finish spewing her junk and calmly explained that her assumptions about some of my actions were incorrect and explained that there are certain reasons why I do certain things (related to my hearing loss). Supervisor says that it appears better communitcation needs to be had, but really, I cannot communitcate any clearer than what I currently do! I don't have any issues (and never had any issues in the 8 years of being there) with anyone else.

I'm at a loss... It's been bugging me all evening and I am still very angry about this situation. The question I have for you all is what do I do next? When I left the office, I called my supervisor and left a message that what happened today was not cool, and that I did not appreciate it and it needed to be addressed. She calls me back and basically says that she was 'sad' to see our interaction (co-worker yelling, me calm and collect) and that it appears we need better communication. WTF?!? This is not the only time a situation has come up with her and the "lying" deal (another incident happened with a student, but I chalked it up as the student was lying and not her - I know different now!).

Should I go to HR about this and have this documented somewhere or should I wait and see how she is tomorrow (if she apologizes or not) and see what the supervisor does? We do have a staff meeting (it was planned way before this) and so I am guessing it will be addressed. I'm so frustrated!!! Almost to the point of tears. My DH has been trying to make me feel better, but this really bugged me! To be called a liar!!! I do not lie!! If anything, she seems to stretch the truth at times, but like I said earlier, I never let it bother me.

What do I do?

Sorry for the long rant... Sadwalk
Sweetie--- My trade I am a business consultant which tends to tell strengths, weaknesses and ways to improve, blah, blah, blah. What happened to you today by your coworker is considered harassment and you need to go to HR and get both your coworker's and supervisiors response to the situation. If HR does nothing, contact the head of HR. Communicating the issue is key!! I have worked at a company similar to this where the tension grew and grew and I am a very petite female and had my truck keyed with "B----" written on it.. this was simply because I work and have children... and I was white and she did not want white women to be on the same level as black women... whatever it is stupid.. however, I did not make a big deal initally out of it until it continued.. Please make sure you cover your own behind... contact HR immediately!! Sorry you had a bad day Frown Hopefully your milkshake helped some Smilie HUGS and wishing you a better day tomorrow Smilie hug

So sorry this was allowed to happen. Going to HR is an option, but it would be overstepping your supervisor and may cause things to get worse on that end (been there done that). Maybe you could send an email to your supervisor to summarize the discussion you had with her, and mention in it that you expect something to be done, as you consider this type of behavior to be an attack. that way, you have it in writing should you need it down the road. Could be that your supervisor just isn't knowledgeable in handling these types of things (been there, doing that)

Quote from mama2cole :
I would take it to HR. Especially since your supervisor was so dismissive about the whole situation.

Went to T tonight.
Used some Qs.
Left happy.
The end.
DS is getting so big. He is such a cutie!!
