For a fair few weeks now a work colleague, male and 23, has been winding me up again and again and again.
It started off with something really petty that he couldn't/can't seem to let go of and today he was implying in a jokey way that we need to have a clear out of staff, meaning me.
It's all done in a jokey/sarcastic way, always infront of other people to get the laughs and it's starting to get to me.
I'm 46 and have been in this job for 15 years. It's ridiculous that I'm letting him get to me, I know. He's an immature 23 in many ways but I now dread seeing him amongst other people as I'm worried what he's going to say.
I've tried ignoring it but it doesn't deter him and when we're on our own he's perfectly fine. I'm pretty sure he doesn't realise he's upsetting me as I never show it.
I'm on the verge of saying something but I will have to work with him so I need to word it properly, I.e. NOT "Why are you behaving like an idiot?"
I feel like a school child on the playground
