So??? Stop being so NICE. Give back what they gave you and you'll be okay. TRUST me!

Ask him once, if you get the attitude, ask your supervisor to get involved. You're not being a trouble maker, you're just trying to get the job done.

I can totally relate to what you are saying. I live with the same type of thing every day, unfortunately the person in question is my boss. Sometimes I think if I let loose one day the consequenses might just be worth it. Horrible, I know, but this kind of person can cause the most severe and aggressive frustration! My advice is to avoid him as much as possible, which is what I do with her, but should you happen to proceed with a physical confrontation I admit I would find it comforting to know that at least someone had some consequence for their constant crap behavior and maybe will think twice about it in the future.

I  Know  exactly  how you  feel....my  husband  has the  same  feeling  at  his  work....people  are straight  out LAZY.....and  the  least  mistakes  you  made....they're the  ones  to  make  the  big  deal. And  then  the  good had  to  suffer  for  the  bad....they  should  be  fire  without  pay.\nAll  The  Best And Good  Luck

Don't worry, people have hissy fits all the time. Tell your boss you'll stay but you really didn't appreciate getting chewed out for something out of your control. Be civil and dignified and maintain your bosses dignity too when you say it.

That co-worker is trying to kiss butt to look so good... However, if the manager, or supervisor should notice this, the fact that he/she con't even offer any bit of assistance makes him/her look pretty bad on record...  If that supervisor does not keep note of such actions, then he/she is as biased as the coworker. \nBut your supervisor is in fact neutral, as he/she should be, you should go have a talk with him/her, or even file a complaint against the co-worker and state it as negligeant and unprofessional, Would rather show some bad attitude, than to upkeep a positive working atmosphere, and what more to make that this co-worker is going out of his/her way to hold things against you...  The fact that he/she is breathing down your collar in hopes of finding any flaw you'll do, you can get away with filing for harrassement and, in fact you can say that whatever mistakes held against you are the result of him/her attempting to intimidate you, and whatever threats that are being waved in your face by this individual.\n\nCheers!

Yes, I am sure most people have experienced a rude person before, but someone at work should have a bit more self control. After all, they are going to see you again tomorrow aren't they?\n\nRude remarks like this are unwelcome to everyone, even those who think they are "tougher" or "quicker to respond" than everyone else. If it hurts you or insults you, then the last thing that you want to do is join in to the silliness. You are too smart and too classy to start acting rude just to "get even".\n\nBesides, when you act classier than everyone else, they hold you in higher regard. That high level of admiration will leave them down below in the dust, when you get promoted or receive a bonus for your positive attitude and professionalism.\n\nPlease don't stoop to their low level of trash talk, you have a future in front of you that requires your integrity and credibility to shine!

Hon, as a long time girl of being embarassed and angry for many of the "same reasons", let me tell you how to handle this and a few words of insight on people.\n\nFirst, you cannot "demand" anything but the bills you need to pay at your office.  \n\nThe only thing you are in control of is your reaction to this jerk ball.  He may have an opinion about you and your job, but that's his opinion and only that.  What you needed to do is just look him in the eye smile as if he's complimented you.  Yes, if he was your boss, this might be a bigger issue.  The thing I've learned about myself and you can learn as well is that no one "makes you cry" You are the only person in charge of when the tears come on.  Yes, outside events can trigger an emotional response, but you are ultimately the only one who allows the emotion to errupt.  Either way, it does not make it easy to deal with sometimes.  If you are totally confident in your ability on the job, then let him say and think what he wants.  You know the facts, and remember them no matter what your co-worker says.  You are good at your job and you are there for the reason that many people do not have the orginazatoinal skills that it takes to do your job.  Maybe you have some underlying feelings that you really are only a pretty face with no skills?  At any rate, look into yourself to realize what exactly got your nerves on edge that day.    It is something deep inside of you that wells up and then you choose this jerk to "lose it" on. (maybe?)  Remember the facts and keep your chin up,  he's probably just got some unresolved issues as well.  What I might do, is jot down the date and what he said that offended you.  Keep a running tab of derogatory and positive both.  If you have to set it up like a spreadsheet, do so.  If you get a large amount of statements that are negative, then you have a log of it and you've recorded while it's fresh in your mind.  IF you end up with a large sheet with dates and statements, then you can start your demands.  This is a math problem, like everything in life.  Aren't you glad you know math so well.  Good Luck.

Amen Sista...\n\nI have left more jobs in the past rather than come across as "Bitchy" for all of the above reasons... until I realized...  People generally know "what" they do when they do it to you,  and there is usually a "why" not too far off behind it.  You sound like I used to be and certain kinds of people like to feed and feast off that kind of energy, taking you from a strong, secure intelligent women, reduced in one failed swoop to being the office bit*ch...\n\nThat is not fair, but the way to counter it, is to always know a thing when you see it.  If someone is trying to goad out your worst character traits... it's them being smart by being stupid.  Try being smarter by seeing it and countering it by giving them no response what so ever.  \n\nThe workplace is basically a well organized kindergarten class...\n\nWatch and observe children and you'll see things from a more innocent and obvious frame of reference.  It is essentially the same thing.  People are turds!  That's why I don't work... It gets the best of all of us eventually.  \n\nThe only solution... is to yank out your own buttons, giving them nothing what so ever to push!  \n\nGood luck sweetie!  I feel for you and relate completely!\n\nI have a little pokket type book for you to run out and buy that will help you immensly!  \n\nIt is called "The Art of Worldly Wisdom."  It is by a Gregorian Monk by the name of Balthsar Gracian.  You can get it at Borders...  Read it,  and in it's pages learn the how's and the why's and maybe even learn a thing or two about yourself and your own condition in the process...  It is the best gift you will ever buy yourself!  and will function as a distraction away from the idiots!  \n\nHappy Holidays!

Get a different job where you can be the supervisor.  You can only change you and your behavior, not him.  Have your own business if you can't find a boss you like.  Be your own boss.

He might have personal problems like some mental illness maybe? You should ask him what the problem is before you fire him.

Listen to yourself...\n"I love my job", then you go on about how your boss makes it miserable for you to be there.\nSo, either it's not that bad, or you're more afraid of having to look for another job than continue putting up with the crap.\nWhen you've had enough of it, you'll know...good luck.

Yeah darling, he is just trying to get enough information on you to get you in trouble at work since it did not work the first time. The only way he knows how to do that is to get you to like him again. So now the playful bit, by opening doors, and jokes and shit. He couldn't tell you he wasn't interested in you because he really is. Take my advice, don't fall into the niceness. It's all a joke, it's not sincere.

Complain to management.\nI sympathize.  You are working in a poisoned workplace.  The stress from this kind of person can be crushing and take all the good feelings of accomplishment and interest out of the workplace.\nI worked with a great team of people at one workplace and one of these people was hired.  Within a year, half of the people quit.(myself included)  The person was fired right after I left.\nPeople like that are usually VERY good at manipulating managers.  If you wind up having to quit, make SURE to specify the bad behavior as your cause for leaving, in terms that relate to those actions hindering your ability to do your job.
