You could simply tell them that you are busy working and that you need to keep this job so you don't have time to mess around. I am assuming you are not being harrassed sexually. If you are, then they should be reported.

Set the mf up.  Make up something outrageous and when your boss asks you about it just laugh it off.  Keep doing that and he/she will either stop or get fired.

always be professional, that way they can never complain about you.\n(always be in a position in which you're covered.)\n\nSpeak to your immediate boss about it, see if she can't first talk to the co-workers about it. \n\nAlso check out a book called "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff at Work."

There are so many of us who eventually have to face this situation. You can not change other people or control how they act BUT you have all the power in the world to control how YOU act. Be professional and cordial because this will only work towards your benefit. This is your job. Don't let anyone ruin that for you. It may be difficult but you'll be a lot less irritated if you keep a reasonable distance and maintain short , professional interactions. And exhale afterwards and let it go. Don't hang on to the irritation after you're gone home. Leave the bad feelings behind. It will make going to work so much easier.

To be perfectly honest, you're best to take that person aside and just let them know.  I mean, I'd want someone to tell me before I go breathing all over everyone.  You can't fix something, if you dont' know there's anything that needs fixing.

Stand up to the person in question.  It is polite to let them know that you have a problem with their work habits BEFORE you tell your supervisor.  If your colleague does not change, then go to your boss.  If your boss does not deal with the problem, tell them you are not happy, and go to THEIR supervisor.  They will respond if you go higher in the chain of command, and remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Try keeping a journal of his behavior and taking it to his manager with the promise that you will also give this to your manager and request that it be discussed at the next managers meeting. Also imply the cost effectiveness (or lack thereof) due to decreased productivity. This can also go to someone higher up in the company. If you prove that his behavior will effect the bottom line you should get the response you need.

1.  Confront the person, ask them to stop\n2.  Inform the supervisor\n3.  If the above don't work, try looking for a new job.

Type up all the dirt you have on her and leave it on her desk... don't put a name on it .... just a little add on note at the bottom saying if she doesn't stop spreading rumors this will be sent to management .... \nMay just make her stop all her "tattling" everyone will be better off\nGood Luck :)\nPersonally I'd confront her asking what the problem is ... then if needs be go to management with the same questions .\nThen theres always "Dial-a-Goon" to take care of those pesky office co-workers ...lol

IF this person is your equal or subordinate, cheerfully say, 'I really have to get going right now, but I'll have that for you first thing Monday morning.' If they say they REALLY need it now, explaint that you're sorry (as you're walking out the door), but that you dont have time, and that they really need to ask you earlier in the day on Fridays (so that this wont happen again in the future).  \n\nWow, your coworkers are rude!  You could wind up in the office all night!

You should tell your boss how you feel, and tell him/her what the lady does. If it really upsets and interfeers with your job, let your boss know. the worst he can do is not do anything.

be the bigger person and say nothing, just deal with him. as u get older u will learn that in the workplace its basically the same , there will probably be somebody that u don't like but u have to deal with it, don't let him get the best of u and u will always come out the real winner

You should try to ignore them. You're there to work, so just work and ignore them, that's the best thing you can do and you won't get in trouble

Be frank with them and tell them to grow up! Tell them that you are an adult and can speak to whom ever you please. Let them know that they are also putting unneeded stress on you at work and that is not fair to you.\nThe problem they have are between the two of them and they need to quit bringing you in the middle of it. Tell them you aren't going to stand for it any longer...end of discussion.\nIf necessary, go to management about it. If they get upset about it, tell them that you didn't know what else to do and that you deserve to come to work without having to deal with their crap.

Rise above it. If she deliberately embarasses you, then she is the problem. Do your work well and professionally. Talk with her and inform her that you would prefer to be told about your mistakes in private so that you could remedy them. Always be professional and job oriented. Bosses hate office politics....Document all incidents that are caused by her, if it continues over a period of time approach the person over both of you. If you are doing your work well, it will show.  If she is the boss, get out now while you still have some self esteem.  Good luck.  Be proactive, not reactive.

Unless it is extremely over the top or all the time let it go.  You are at work and you need to leave your feelings at home.  People do things intentionally all the time that step on other peoples toes.  You just have to let it slide.  Save your feelings for your personal life.  Maybe your boss was just having a bad day or you pushed one of his buttons(we all have them).  If that is the case you could just make the situation worse, and if your boss is a jerk he really won't give a flying flip that your feelings were hurt.  Remember he, or maybe she, is the boss and you will be the one to lose a conflict and are more replaceable than someone higher up on the food chain.\nOh and if you boss is a jerk start looking for another job.

Firstly you should know that when anyone behaves like that they are being completely unprofessional. Never ever ever ever get drawn into that kind of behavior. You cannot win an argument by yelling. Remain calm, look the person straight in the eye, smile, if you can, and say.. I get the feeling that you are upset, would you like to talk about it, I am sure that whatever it is, it can be resolved.  This will catch them completely off guard and will probably get them to stop behaving badly.\nIf it is a job that you don´t care about, and you were going to quit anyway, let him have it..say something like..Who do you think you are talking to,you cannot speak to me like that.  If they have a superior even better, add that you will be speaking to thier superior. Stand up for yourself, because if you don´t, you will run the incident over and over and over in your mind wishing you had said this or that.. but never lower yourself to their level.  Stay calm.   and then slash his or her tires..lol just kidding
