There is someone at work who constantly comes to me to tell me something negative about my work or about me as a person. She is a lot older than me and extremely domineering and confident, she rules the roost.
The thing she says sometimes have a tiny teeny bit of truth to them but she uses any perceived weaknesses to weaponise it to undermine my confidence and doubt myself.
She is not in my team so can't speak to LM.
I am focusing on my job and am quite good at it based on feedback. I think this woman doesn't like me or feels threatened IDK.
How can I breezily shut her flow of negative comments up while remaining polite and professional?
It's not even so much what she says she just comes to make underhand remarks then leaves again, like spreading her daily poison.
Annoyingly, this stresses me and makes me doubt myself.
How do I remain confident with this co worker but make her daily approaches stop?
