Some of my colleagues seem to have a problem with my accent and/or how I come across, and it's getting me down!
I have a south east accent and I live and work in Scotland - I know I am quite reserved and I'm always polite at work (obviously!) and think this is just part of being professional.
Since starting my job about 6 months ago, a few of my team make regular remarks about me being "posh" and comment on how I pronounce certain words, or laugh when I'm talking. It makes me self-conscious and reluctant to speak in front of everyone, which makes me feel chilidish. Am I just being over sensitive and should get over it??
