Yes, I don't right now but I have had in the past.  She was always right and when she made a mistake it was always because someone else had given her the wrong information or she would just outright lie and blame it on someone else.  She talked about everyone and tried to make everyone feel inferior to her.  I hated it at that job.  Thank God I'm not there anymore and I would dare to say I hated it the most because of her.

what do you do that provokes this kind of reaction from her?  perhaps the fact that you say she is annoying is coloring your perception and how you treat her ... look into yourself and see why you choose to find her annoying.

The dude who sits next to me will win craziest/most annoying co-worker in ANY contest!\n \nHe is the most annoying person to ever walk the face of the friggin planet!\n\nHere's the short list of things that irritate me about him:\n\nHis laugh\n\nHis nosey old woman into every attitude \n\nHis voice \n\nHis walk\n \nHis fat butt \n\nHis fat belly \n\nHis smell - he smokes like he's trying to get cancer \n\nDid I mention his laugh sounds like fingernails down a chalkboard?\n\nHe talks to his wife every 15 minutes whether he needs to or not.\n\nHe argues with his wife every 30 minutes whether he needs to or not.\n\nHe talks to his too young to talk on the phone daughter every 30 minutes.\n\nHe hasn't learned a thing about inside voices.\n\nDid I mention his laugh?\n\nHe's a mooch.  I brought in chocolate chip cookies today.  He made fun of me because they weren't homemade, but has since proceeded to eat 11 of them.  I know - I've counted.\n\nHe hockers into his garbage can non stop!\n\nDid I mention the laugh?\n\nI'm listening to music on the internet so he 1) won't try to talk to me and 2) so I don't have to friggin hear his voice, laugh, hockering, conversations with his wife, but don't worry - He came over and took my headsets off my head so he could talk to me.\n\nI'm seriously going to lose it one day!  He is like \nevery annoying idiot you've ever known, wrapped into one weirdo!  Then multiply by 10!

Oh man. There's a guy at my office, thank you lord I don't have to go there often, who smells like an old dog. Breath, b.o., the whole thing. Take the curl right out your hair. The bosslady lysols his chair every night, and she bought one of those every 3 minutes air freshener squirt things and it's right beside his desk. She's told him to clean up, she's told him to go home till he gets clean. He still smells bad. And now he's bringing his smelly kid to work every afternoon. Urk.

I think I have run into that personality and I personally can not stand them...can't strangle 'em, can't live with 'em.  So if you are like me, you might want to consider other employment opportunities before something unfortunate happens and you find yourself without.\n\nTo get along with this person requires that you play up to them.  You need to ask lots of questions and praise them.  Good luck.

The one I work for now is the best.  We get along great.  The worst I've had was at my last job.  She was backstabbing bitch and she talked about everybody then acted like their best friend to their faces.  She even talked trash about her best friend, the assistant manager.

If your new wait a while to see if she acts that way towards u again... if she does put her in her place especially if she just your co-worker and not your supervisor!!!! don't cry to management yet they may see this as a sign of weakness and let you go!!!

Don't you hate that?????\n\nI work with some one who has a chronic cough and it annoyed me so much, that I would ask him, "are you ok" or "are you sick again?"\n\nI have even gone as far as saying, "oh no........coughing still? I am a germ freak and can not stand it any longer, can you go home?" And that person packed up their stuff and left for about 2-3 days or so and when they returned they were not coughing that much any more, because they got some cough medicine from the doctor.\n\nAnother thing that I like to say when people cough and sneeze is, "DID YOU COVER????? I do not want to get sick!" That usually puts a cap on things too.\n\nI hate that coughing crap, especially when you are on the phone and the other person on the line, stops what they are saying, so that they can listen to my coughing neighboor.\n\nIt is so embarrassing!!!!!

I worked for this woman that was a nasty b*tch also, actually a couple of them and both were my bosses.\n\nI was a 'file assistant' and Carol was my boss. I was just reentering the office environment after bartending for years. She was nasty and rude. I think she didn't like my happy attitude and smiling all the time. I would have to stamp the mail a very specific way and I was never really shown how to. Since I was making mistakes she was even more disgusting to me. Telling me that she wouldn't let me on the computer until I did it perfect for a while. Well, she gave me my one month review and boy was it horrible. I retaliated with my own review of her and that her review was based soley on her personal opinion and she didn't like it at all. There was a sit down with HR, The VP and the Owner of the company and I told them that if I have to continue working for her then I wouldn't continue working there. I had heard, while working there, that she went through about 5 file assitants a year. So I know it wasn't me.\n\nThen another boss of mine didn't like the fact that she was a dumb*ss, who couldn't spell, put together complete sentences, or speak clearly. I asked her one day if anyone had put together an Excel file for the job (I coordinated maintenace for about 250 stores) and she said no. Well, a new girl started and she tells her how she had this fabulous idea of putting together this Excel file, which I put together, right in front of me. I immediately corrected her. She didn't like that. Subsequently, my best friend was working there in the same department and my boss told her that I was after her job. I wasn't. all I wanted was a good raise when it came time. Oh well for her.\n\nNow I work for a company where I was promoted in less then 9 months and I was told when I started that the woman can be catty (which aren't most of them in the office). I have no problems with anyone there.\n\nWell, now that I shared my experiences with you, cuz it reminded me of what I went through.... The boss sees that this woman is being petty and if the boss doesn't, do you really want to continue working there?

Arrange a meeting with her. Explain that you find her manner unprofessional and inappropriate. Just because someone is the boss does not give them the right to be (as you put it) an SOB. Every time your boss berates you or behaves in an unprofessional manner, be sure to point it out in a mature, calm way. \n"I'm sorry, but I find your tone offensive/unprofessional/rude/ out of line/etc. Do you think we can discuss this in a more productive manner?"\n\nHope this helps, good luck

Actually the truth is you never disliked the person.  It was a wall you put up.  I mean try to figure out why you couldn't stand them before and then try to figure out why you like them.  Most of the time it will be the same reasons.\n\nThe other reason it could be is they grew on you.
