Was That Really Reasonable Of My Coworker To Give Me That Reaction

How do I deal with rude coworkers that bully me?

I am unhappy about my current job at a daycare. I like working with the kids, but the lead teacher is not helpful. Besides giving me commands, he won't talk to me. He gets mad when I ask him questions. When I give him suggestions, he won't care. He gossips about me with other coworkers. My other coworker has also joined him in talking bad about me. She has even started to boss me around and to point what I do badly. She's not my supervisor. She also starting to not talk to me at all. I have come home crying many times because I dread going to work.

Should I Tell My Coworker About My Eating Disorder?

I really feel for you. That is a hard decision. I had a long battle with that disease myself, but have been able to maintain a normal weight range for the last 3 years.

My co-workers and boss used to beg me to eat lunch with them. I'd always decline (I always ate circus peanuts or animal crackers for lunch, if anything) but they'd keep hounding me about it for hours everyday. One day, when my boss was bothering me about lunch again, I snapped and just walked away from him crying.

He ended up bringing me into the office and confronting me about what was going on. He said I looked exhausted all the time, I had showed up really late for work a few times, and I was acting spacy. He said everyone had been worried for awhile. He didn't mention weight, but I have a distinct feeling that it was a concern for him. The week before I had rolled up my sleeves to work on something, but I forgot to roll them back down when he came up to talk to me. I had caught him looking at my arms.

Anyways, long story, but he ended up calling a company counselling service for me, which marked a very bumpy road to recovery. I noticed that people did change after that. Not that I was treated better or worse, it was just different. Suddenly, nobody bullied me about eating lunch with them. In fact, they didn't talk about food around me at all. The few times I did eat in front of them (company picnic and holiday party), I always noticed those people that knew, would watch what I had put on my plate. Hehe. I even had someone come up and say how proud they were of me because they'd never guess in a million years that I'd eat a whole hamburger!

Bottom line is that it will change the dynamic of the friendship. Many people don't know what to do or say, so they will distance themselves a bit. My advice is, instead of going to this coworker for help, you need to visit your therapist or find one if you don't have one. Yourself and your doctors are the only ones that can help you recover.

Boyfriend hiding conversations with a female coworker from me?

He's only hiding this from you because you ARE making a big deal out of this. Your scaring him away anyway the more you got mad over that the more likely he will leave you or hide even more things from you because you will over react. If he told you about everything that happened the First time he wouldn't hide anything, that sounds like someone you can trust . Stop acting crazy and leave him alone to some privacy . If hea flirting with her you preventing them from talking wont stop him anyway.

Why do my Mcdonalds co workers and managers treat me like crap?

Welcome to the restaurant business, my friend...........

In my eyes, you are a victim of bad management, and the fact that this McDonald's location does not take the time to properly train their employees is evidence of this. I bet your co-workers had to go through the exact same thing, and are taking out their frustrations out on you...........

Do you have a college degree? If not, go to college and earn one. Find ANY restaurant other than McDonald's to work at, if needed. ANY restaurant. You will never get very far if you're stuck with a restaurant establishment with poor management. You sound like somebody who has a good work ethic. IT WILL BE NOTICED if you demonstrate it with most other jobs in this world. Don't let this lousy, poorly run McDonald's establishment get you down. Restaurants are always looking for good, hard-working people (one of the many reasons why the turnover rate is so high in the business).

I've been accused of being "snappy" with my co-worker.?

I try to laugh and play alot at work, but sometimes I'm really focused, and I when I'm interrupted, and I guess my annoyance shows. Is it reasonable to expect me to reign in what is a natural reflex action? Cause I think that if I didn't get a little annoyed once in a while, I'd go ballistic at the end.

Incidently, I have about three times the responsibility of the other co-worker, and we are short staffed, so I'm usually the only one on-hand to answer questions.

How do I get my coworkers to stop taking the Lord's name in vain?

Stop taking it so personally. God is perfectly capable of defending His own Name.That said: what about it causes you trouble? Are they intentionally doing this simply to cause your discomfort? Or are they simply not even aware it would offend anyone?Thought: If they were fully aware that you had deep respect for God, would they continue to do this to spite you, or restrain themselves to show some respect? Now, I'll go to meddling: Is there anything different about how you speak, behave, and treat your coworkers on a daily basis which would lead them to assume you have any beliefs about God at all?How about this response: if your coworker is invoking God's name multiple times in a conversation with you, simply ask innocently--and legitimately: "I notice you talk about God/Jesus a lot. I'm curious to know--what do you think about God, exactly? I'd love to discuss it!"Leave your feelings out of it for now. Just listen for their answer. It'll range from awkward conversation-stopping silence, to perhaps a real conversation focused on mutual respectful behavior in the workplace--or even sharing what you deeply believe about God.Share how that belief has changed you and stabilizes your life. Leave the changing of opinion up to their own conscience--which God can change.Finally: please consider that "taking God's name in vain" does not mean mere throwing around "God" and "Jesus" all the time. It also means claiming the name of Christ as a follower and not acting like it. That happens far more often than casual profanity you hear at the office.

Can I sue my co-worker for taking pictures of me and did it for fun?

Depends do you have the proof that you were in a private setting when the picture was taken because if it was taken in public the answer already is no you can't sue them. The next question is have you suffered trauma or mental damage and have proof you have this damage because of these pictures being taken again if you don't then no you can't sue them. even after all of this do you really have the time and money to go through with this because lawyers aren't cheap so you'll most likely not make any money from this so, to put it bluntly, No you most likely cannot sue them.
