I'm a former Marine. However, I'm not obnoxious.
I had an old co-worker (not in the Marines) that had something against me for whatever reason. I'm female as is the co-worker. She came on board about a year after I was hired. Anyhoo, I had numerous problems with her. First, she had a shrink appointment on Friday after work. Monday morning she came in, went to our boss and stated that I contacted them to cancel her appointment. Each of us in our department had to be called in and interrogated. I informed my boss that we all knew she was going to a shrink as she told us. However, why would I cancel an appointment? It's obvious she needs the help.
About a year ago, she was being reprimanded due to poor work performance and was taken off of certain projects. One day, out of curiousity, I asked her if she knew when she was going to be able to join back on the project. It was not in any way vindictive. Also, I later found out that I was not the only one who had asked her this. For whatever reason, she had a problem with me asking. Before I left for work that day, I was once again called into my boss' office. I was informed that I hurt her feelings and that I should not ask her such things. I informed my boss that I am not responsible for what she feels like. I'm not getting paid to make her feel good. No one is considering my feelings, or my other co-workers, as we're picking up her slack. I was
heated. Thankfully the woman had already left for home and it was a Friday afternoon. If she was there, I would have been arrested as I would have jumped her, giving her a whoopin' she would never forget!
There were plenty of other little things that happened with her, too. Thankfull, this past fall, I went through a company re-structuring. My department was heading to another city so I took the lay-off. Unfortunately, I still hear from this woman via email.
