How do you combat a mean co-worker, or someone who works with you that doesn't want to do their job ?

Question

Is someone who repeatedly calls me a pussy to my face, calls me all kinds of insulting and deroggatory names, throws things at me. Is this considered normal in a workplace ?

Answer 1

That s*it would last until I caught that dink in the parking lot. After I slammed his face into the hood of his car about three times I suppose he would get the message.

Answer 2

That is not normal in the workplace, nor is it acceptable. This person is rudeness at its extreme who has no business messing with anybody- period. This is something that requires the involvement of human resources and/or your supervisor. Go to the necessary department or boss immediately- this person's behavior has the potential to escalate into physical violence, and you don't need that.

Answer 3

Combat a mean co-worker? That is rather drastic.

Go to a supervisor or Human Resources.

Answer 4

No, it is not and you don't have to stand for it. Is this really true? I can't imagine anybody throwing things at you. If it's true then go to your supervisor.

Answer 5

do you work on The Office from TV? quit or go to your boss. those are your choices. why would you continue to work in a place like that? damn.

Answer 6

I've never had luck working with the lazies...Just don't make it a habit to do their work for them or they'll expect it.

Answer 7

actually you can complain to your boss and if they do nothing which they probably will........ take it to court for creating a hostile work enviroment.

Answer 8

No that is called harrassment and violence.
