A person has left our work place suddenly.
I did not like this person because they were very unkind to me. Pouring milk (which I am allergic to) over my lunch, and dropping my cup in front of me to deliberately break it etc. I believed these things to be antisemitic. I was very annoyed because I knew sooner or later I would need to make a complaint, and as these things were mostly while she and I were alone, it was likely to be complicated.
I was very glad to arrive in work this morning and be told they are gone forever. No notice! so makes me wonder exactly how and why.
Anyway, it transpires that the same person was being equally spiteful to others in the office, when she was alone with them. For example, lying to a probationer, saying she had seen the records, and she ( the probationer) was failing ( She is an exceptionally good probationer) - coughing directly into the face of someone immunocompromised, literally crossing the room to cough into her face from about 2 inches away - taking the batteries out of lap tops, and also possible thefts of money, etc,. Nobody talked about this while she was here, it has all come out since she left - she also was very touchy feeling and helpless eyelid batty with several married men.
IABU to think this is something pathological? Really - why get up in the morning and plan to be so nasty? This is not normal unpleasantness, personality clash, etc, is it?
