Toxic work colleagues

The boss told you what to do already.

It's just 5 weeks, man up.
 
Just whip your cock out, and place it on her shoulder. Tell her next time this will end up in her mouth.

Just saying. Or is that going to far .. gawd i never can tell.
 
Keep her emails, print them as well. Don't react as this will only bring you to her level and with only a matter of weeks to stay on the job she will make your misery priority one. Stay cool, calm and objective. People that thrive on controversy are not worth the trouble. When she is packing up to head out the door then it is your time to strike and let her know what a ***** she is. When you do, be tactful, brief, to the point and cutting as all hell!

I've had a similar situation. The guy still kisses my balls like he owes me money!

Damn, I laughed out loud...thanks.


OP, as fun as Inferno's advice may be you have to ride it out. She is thriving on the negative interaction and trying to make you come down to her level. Best defense for this type of person is avoid face to face interaction and copy the boss on all emails to be as transparent as possible. Professionalism will really piss her off...she will escalate & screw up.

If that doesn't work make sure you video tape the whole dick on the shoulder routine...you tube moment fo sho!
 
If she's on her way out and doesn't have any real credibility with your boss, then I'd leave it alone. Save the emails in case you need them, and just ignore her. If you play it cool it'll make her look even more looney.
 
OP, the problem you have with your co-worker will seem minuscule if you heard the kind of **** I have to put up with at work.
As already mentioned, the best thing to do is be the bigger person.
Be polite, forgiving and just let things slide...

Another 5 weeks +/- and you're free.
My "Toxic work colleague" could last for months or even years. :mad:
You are in a much better place than I am, my friend.
 
You could always pack her car door handles with peanut butter, that's always a nice treat at the end of the day.
 
The problem with legal action is that the B's superiors could get dragged into it for not stepping in when the problem came up. Firing long term employees can be difficult so they are probably riding it out as well. Be extra nice. It drives them crazy.

The person losing the arguement is the one yelling the loudest so stay cool.

This is what I would recommend.

I would also consider making a log of the events aside from the emails.

You and your company may need them in the future - keep a hard copy of everything and file it away. - toss it 2 years later.

There is always a problem child in every business/company. The one person who causes a majority of the issues and the person who typically no one gets along with and everyone despises. If it was not this lady you speak of it would be somebody else. Clarifying with your boss was the correct thing to do outside of that it's now just a waiting game. However remember once she leaves there will be another one. I have a friend who owns a company with approx 30 people. He specifically hires someone he knows the workforce will hate so that one of the productive employees doesn't become that worker. He says it also creates more of a team since everyone has something in common...lol

She's just been hypercritical of everything I do. A week ago she accused me of several things which blatantly weren't true, I found the relevant e-mails that proved my side of things and forwarded them to her with a short explanation and I didn't even receive an apology. I'm thinking she has some kind of psychotic behaviour problem.

I understand, my view is that if someone is willing to say things that are untrue now, she may also decide to continue to say untrue things after she is gone, and possibly to a lawyer. Doing what I suggested will protect yourself ( and your company) in the future. If you have in house legal, give them a heads up.

2 years is the standard limitations period for bringing a claim. That is the best advice I can give to not only protect yourself during the next few weeks, but after that as well.

Should I be the better person and just ignore her completely or is it time to call the union and ask for libel charges to be brought etc?

You lost me at "union"..best of luck on your situation though.
 
Don't show that she's getting to you. Hell, ignore her unless she says anything relevant to a real work task. That's the best way to get at the old *****. Deprive the attention-whore of her craved attention.
