I've recently started a new job & there's this 1 woman who is just a down right smart a$$. Every1 warned me of her when I started working. She has smarted every1 of them off at 1 time & they say nuffin back 2 her. Well just the other day, she smarted me off & called me a ***** for no reason what so ever! I went up 2 her & ask what she said 2 me & she "pretended" not 2 hear me. I ask her 3 more times & she still ignored. I got up right behind her & said "What did u just call me?". She turned around & I wuz in her face & her eyes got really big. She said she didnt say nuffin. I said "B.S.!.We just heard u. & so she didnt speak 2 me the rest of the day at all." I generally get along with anyone, but Im not gonna stand by & take **** from people like her.
Now I'm wondering wat can I do about her, without the possibilty of losing my job, cause if I knock her the f*k out, Im gonna get fired. Point blank. No one likes her becuz of her attitude, even the boss.
What would you do about her?

This is typical of a bully, she will say what she like because people do not stand up to her, yet the moment you front her on it she backs down. The best way to handle the situation is to front her each time but do so in a non agressive manner. For example, "would you kindly repeat what you have just said and your reasons for saying it" then smile politely, challenge her politely but firmly and so you can be heard by others and you'll soon find she will stop picking on you and maybe your colleagues will follow suit. Best of luck.

Well noone likes a smarta..! Just let her know that you ain't takin nuffin from her and always stand up to her no matter what.
But then again, the only way to shut up a smart mouth is to just bust it.

Ignore her, as long as you respond to her, she will continue to take an interest in annoying you.. Just accept that she is a Smarta$$ and leave her alone.. Do your work, and be professional at all times.. She will eventually be removed as she will be bringing down the team and keeping you all from doing your work in a timely fashion..
Good Luck

beware. She and her boss may have been through a lot together before you joined the co.
Also,I have news for you. There's someone like this everywhere you go, so learn to deal with it.
The boss doesn't like her. But he has done nothing. Why? Who knows. maybe it's none of your business.
So, if you continue to push the issue, you might become history.
