I know this is really petty, but a girl who went to the same primary school and secondary school as me will be starting work in my office in a more senior position.
I have nothing against this person, she is perfectly pleasant but I can't shake the feeling that i dont want her in my work environment for the following reasons:
- This girl knows all the people I know, my family, friendship circles etc and I would prefer to be anonymous at work, go in and do my work and go home without people knowing my whole history.
- My boss is on a power trip and if something is not done to his liking, he will email and copy everyone in the department in. If I ever make a mistake, I would rather not someone I grew up with or thinking I am shit at my job. By the way, I have pulled my boss before but it goes in one ear and out of The other.
- I don't want someone I went to school with bossing me around!
I can't do anything about it, so I am asking the best way to handle it.
Thanks
