How To Deal With A Crappy Coworker?

Question

I have worked for this co. for 7 years and have worked with this person for the same amount of time. She's started crap between me & another lady here at work, she belittles me in front of people, tells me that everyone hates me, makes fun of the way that I look, but will turn around and be super charming and friendly...she's always calling me throwed off but I think it's her? my boss is on her side and they're very chummy. What do I do? I don't want to be seen as a trouble maker or drama queen? I just want to come to work and go home. I can avoid her but she always tries to talk to me and makes me feel guilty for not waiting for her after work (she can't go anywhere by her self). We're adults...I figure that if she's such a backstabber and doesn't like me, then why try and be nice to me? I feel as if I'm in junior high again.

She and I have sons that are the same age. She's asked to keep him and she ends up keeping him all weekend...even though I've called to go and get him. She'll get attitude on the phone and even her mom said with attitude-"We'll call u when we're ready to bring him home." I don't want trouble at work. But I just want to punch her.

Woah, you need to step back from this woman, she is treating you like a doormat. First of all, no one can make you feel guilty unless you let them - she is dumping all over you because she doesn't really like you, but she needs you to provide the transportation - that is the only reason that she is nice SOMETIMES. Just to throw you off. She is a nasty b****. Don't let her take your son at all. Keep to yourself - be polite, but don't believe any nasty thing she says - just smile but keep your distance. Don't let yourself get sucked into any drama at work - document your position as best you can, do not lose your temper. Do not go anywhere with her. Eventually she will see that she can't get anything out of you and turn her attention elsewhere. She is just using you because she CAN. Be strong! You can do it; stand up for yourself, because you are NOT in junior high, you are a grown up.
