I hate how the physical toll of doing this type of work has worn my body down. I'm a heavy truck mechanic.

Why go out of your way to "make Carol mad"?  That type of energy vented is a weakness in the person 'attacking' the other.  Want to make a point or make a statement?  Then do so in the vein of wisdom, strength, compassion but let that statement stand alone.  No need to 'go after' another with the goal of making her mad...especially in this avenue where you can't face that person in reality . . . ill comments made in this venue are cowardly.

Monica confided in the wrong woman.... I've forgotten the gal's name, but instead of the friend she claimed to be, she turned out to be a spiteful, nasty l'il harpy who used the confidence to garner her 15 minutes in the spotlight.\nI always thought Bill's extracurricular activities were Hillary's problem, not mine and I remain annoyed that so many taxpayer dollars were expended on a silly little pocket scandal.

Oh my gosh, did you work at the same place I did?  Your story sounded exactly like the situation I had.  Management and supervisory positions had changed at my work and from then on, the nightmare began.  The witch who rose to power was a narcissitic, egotistical backstabber who made it so unbearable for everyone. She continuously found it amusing to berate, belittle and degrade each and every employee in the company by telling us that we were underworked and so grossly over-paid (we all made more $$$$ than her). Someone who is in the psychology field said that this supervisor's had low self-esteem issues (she weighs close to 300 lbs.)and it is satisfying to her to put others down in order to feel better about herself.  She can't control her weight so she tried to control others.  Unfortunately, confronting this supervisor only compounded to the problem, as she could not take constructive criticism from ANY employee...and talking to the owner of the company proved to be useless, as he always avoided any type of problem or confrontation issue.  Since I did not have an advocate or anyone I could really turn to, the stress of going to work every day was taking it's toll on my health.  For peace of mind and sanity, I gave them my two weeks notice but did not burn my bridges upon my resignation. It is a good idea to have something lined up to go to, especially if you need the income and medical benefits.  You really don't want to be at the mercy of your current employer when it comes to recommendations or verifications.  Good luck.....

What is she crazy? It's a win/win situation. These situations never backfire and always work out!(Can you feel my sarcasm?)Or maybe your female bosses are afraid that once they have a taste of you they will always be craving you and it might interfere with work. I,m the same way with your questions, I can't stop answering them! \n\nIs there brown on my nose? Don't pick me for best answer again or people will think I,m your "answers pet". Ahh who cares, pick me! Pick me!

My boss used to love to pick on me. She made fun of my hair "Dont you own a hairbrush?" my pants "It's not Christmas time, why are you wearing velvet pants to work?" my shirts "Dont you own an iron?" and my voice "You need to be peppy when you answer the phone, you sound like you just rolled out of bed" (i have a deep voice, some say sexy) my Armani glasses "You look like an old grandma with those thick frames" and my brain, when i couldnt fix her 1980's fax machine "Well, youre just stupid, thats why you cant fix it" and screamed like a psycho because i forgot one week to water her five million plants in the office and the leaves were turning brown. She was a big fat pig with alot of money and paid me 7 bucks an hour to be her assistant (office slave) Of course I quit after a few months.

I hated an ex-boss-\nHe thought that since I was young/blonde/female I was stupid and he hated the fact that I was intelligent and not home barefoot and pregnant where "women belong".\n\nTo get back instead of slapping him, I had to book his flight from Ohio to Japan (10 hours) - when I booked it I requested an aisle seat in Coach (please note he is an exec.used to flying in 1st class), with a vegetarian meal, and I made it clear to the booking agent that he was a "recovering alcoholic" and that he was NOT to have any alcoholic beverages on the plane no matter how irate he got....\nNeedless to say when he landed the next morning he called me an asked why his seat had all these stipulations- I played dumb blonde- LOL- He so deserved it!

Many, many years ago, I once had a boss tell me that he expected more from his better employees than his slackers.  Not fair, but I can understand the reasoning behind it and I also think kinda the same way because some people have more talent or abilities than others and more should be expected of them. Boy, I'm going to get into trouble for this!! What I liked about him  was that he was honest about it.  \n\nNowadays, it seems we have to be careful about everything we say. Where is this screwy country headed? Things like the above could be grounds for a lawsuit I suppose.

Anyone working Customer Service has had (and will continue to have) these days. I usually let loose on the last day of one of these jobs when every customer with a stupid question gets an HONEST response, whether they like it or not! Why? Because no one can do anything! What are they gonna do? Fire me? I've already quit! Lol!

i think she is being very unprofessional.  no one wants to know what she was up to the night before.  i think her behavior definetly reflects on the company and she is embarassing herself.  a lady has much more class than that.  she's behaving like a tramp.

Why is it that the nice guys and gals get crapped on.  I work in a factory where the same kind of thing goes on all the time.  One person won't speak to you because you speak to someone they don't like and so on.  Sounds like you work with a few kindergarten mentality people.  The way I deal with this foolishness is to tell the "children" I speak to whomever I chose to and if you don't like it, too bad.  Being in my mid-40's, my selective hearing is very well developed so I tune out the trash talk and gossip. I also tell myself, I don't have to take these people home with me. Be glad yours is only a part time job, imagine 40 hours a week with such childish ignorant behavior.

I had alot to yell at you about, but these fine people here said it all. Hanoi Jane caused my brother to get spat upon when he got off the plane. I am supposed to ask forgiveness from God when i feel hatred toward people, but she has been the hardest for me. And to the lady poster above me that thinks she is Christian and changed, NO! she was going to run a long motorcade with Cindy Sheehan until a man spit on her at a book signing. She hasn't changed. And for you, I wish i could spit on you!!  Snopes.com?? What a laugh, I bet you like loosechange too, huh? admit it.

so far i've got two.  one from a gal who got pissed because i yelled at her for putting her homework on Answers.  the other was because i called someone a moron.\n\ni feel like i'm about to get more---just had heated words with a 'muslim' who didn't appreciate my take on 'islam-the religion of peace'.  he thinks i got all my info from 'biased news services' when i really got it from reading that dopey book, the koran.\n\nUPDATE!!!!! yes, i did get a third.  'ahmed' got Yahoo to pull another one of my answers.  what a moron.

It is them being rude. How you should respond depends on the context. Is it going on during "water fountain" chat or during business meetings. Is it your boss or someone at your level or below that might be competeting with you. Is it going on with your boss present or not.\nThese issues will make a difference on how you should approach this.

vedder, You may have not been in the store to hear some of the rude, disgusting comments some shoppers make to these young girls. I used to be a manager, and there were countless times they would be brought to tears by some overbearing butthead. You are correct that sometimes they may be rude, but please consider, there are two sides to every coin.
