Good to hear from you. I would hope, once you are through training that your path and this woman's will not have to cross.
To actually say to someone, " I don't know why you are here" is so rude, childish, unprofessional and abusive. Can you record any of what she says with a laptop or cell phone? If you had a company, would you want a person like this in your employ? I wouldn't say anything at the get go unless it continues to escalate but, if it continues or you end up having dealings/problems in the future, at least you have some proof to show the direct boss. Every employee reflects the company and this woman is a nightmare. Just a thought, I know you have enough to deal with.
How are you feeling physically? I would imagine it is difficult to sit in the same position for long periods of time, or perhaps you have a comfortable chair.
Hopefully the training is over soon and you will be rid of this nasty human.
Pulling for you Pam and wishing you all the best.
Prayers to your Mother. Sorry to hear she is still in the hospital.

My direct boss and the State RGM are on leave until the 19th so I trust things will improve on their return. I'm flying interstate on the 19th to spend 3 days with my state counterpart and I'm sure I will have a better idea then as to why this woman has been so rude, horrid and unhelpful. Putting aside her patronising manner and unhelpful and sneering observations I do believe this job is something I can make a real and valuable difference to.
My poor mum is still in hospital but still herself enough to comfort me when I relived the burning embarrassment as I described how my first 3 days unfolded. I confess having been out of the workplace for so long I had forgotten how petty and cruel workers can be. Having been the one normally responsible for ensuring this type of behaviour is not acceptable in the workplace it was doubly hard to be on the receiving end. I'm shocked a woman of her age could engage in such behaviour. Nevertheless I am not going to let her ruin what could be the start of a new life for me.
Thank you all for your continued support  |
