I am seriously having "issues" with these people! Have already posted about some of them in Employment issues", but need to know if I am being oversensitive/unreasonable etc.
2 of my colleagues are best mates and have frequently referred to me as "stupid cow", "fat fucker in the corner" etc when they didn't know I was listening, told me to "stick my training up my arse" that I was supposed to do with them, take the piss out of everyone else, are two faced and smarmy to other staff/managers etc. I don't sit near them thankfully, so they think I can't hear them - but I can!
They run down to the toilet after me or the the other women go and see/sniff if we've poohed (seriously) and sprayed air freshener to cover it up, then come back, make vomiting noises, say "it smells", and call us "dirty bitches" behind our backs (I overheard them) for going to the toilet at work. We have one toilet for all the women.
They shouted loudly the other week that whoever had spilled stuff/stunk the microwave out was dirty and put a sign up saying "clean it after use". I had used it for a ready meal which split so it smelled, but I cleaned it up and other colleague saw me cleaning up - obviously missed a bit though, and there was already dried on stuff from someone else - so I feel like I can't heat food up or go to the toilet anymore - I can't afford to eat out everyday, and sandwiches just don't fill me up all day.
They piss about deciding what to have for their dinner and expect other people to get it from the shop and told me once they were going the chippy but I couldn't have doner emat as it stunk, so they would get me something else. If I don't ask them if they are coming the shop/going out they moan and bitch that we've not asked them and they have to go for their own dinner.
They never make cups of tea - they expect to be waited on all day, and they have told the office junior previously to "get downstairs and make me some cereal" etc.
They refuse to do work I need them to do so I can do my job, whinge if I copy the boss in on emails asking them to do things; refuse to do any training or use the new office system, so I have to do it all etc. They just snigger and bitch. I have emailed my boss and their boss to say they are not using it, but have not said about the bitching, as they would just deny it and flutter their eyelashes at them (Boss thinks they're brilliant). They think they're indispensable and have just got rid of their manager by grassing him up for something so he got the sack as he was to thick to realise he was being set up by them.
Today, I said to 2 other people I thought were "acquaintances" at least that 50 odd year old women shouldn't work in school offices, as it takes jobs away from mums with school age kids that can't afford childcare - I meant women of over 60 etc, but it came out wrong, as they are around 50, but only look early 40's. We were talking about jobs, hours and pay etc at the time so it was just part of the conversation!
They both proceeded to "rip my head off" and rant I didn't know how lucky I was today to have flexi hours and tax credits etc, and at their age they should work less hours - I said yes, but they don't have to do it in a school - our town's school offices are full of older women with grown up kids, who have been there for years - so no chance of anyone getting the jobs, staying until their kids are older then leaving to let someone else have the hours they need. I know loads of mums who'd love a job share in a school office.
I said I wasn't being offensive to them, just that it was my opinion, not personal to them at all.
They bitched about me for about an half an hour, looking over occasionally and whispering, and then ignored me the rest of the afternoon; they told the other "harpies" (DP's name for them!! what I'd said, didn't say bye etc at hometime.
They always think they know better than me from cleaning products, tantrums, work etc because they are older and have grown up kids so talk down to me about most things, but I accepted that up to now as I recognise, yes they have more life experience, but they shouldn't shout me down and tell me I am wrong to express my opinion on anything should they??
If you've got this far, thanks for reading!
So, AIBU about the way they are all behaving towards me?
