I have been working for a company for about a month now.
I have been close with co-worker X. She entered the company the
same day with me.
Everything was fine and i really like her.
But something happened which made me question if I should be
caution of her in terms of office politics
We were sorting out the documents with a Senior Z.
When one of the documents was misplaced,
Senior Z assumed it was me who misplaced it since I was standing
the nearest to the documents shelf at that point.
I know it wasn't me because that day the documents were only about
2-3,
so I remembered which r those I filed.
I told Senior Z that it wasnt me and she 'joking' saying
"Liar".
When I asked my co-worker X did she handle the misplaced
document,
Senior Z interrupted 'joking' saying 'you always bully her'.
To my surprise, my co-worker X replied ' Yeah Lor, Dao Yan (
Disliked)'
1st of all, I know I did not bully my co-worker AT ALL.
I even helped her when she couldn't finished her workload.
I also know that just because I alway helped her, doesnt mean I can
treat her like she own me anything and I didn;t treat her that way.
Which is why it is kinda SHOCK when she replied that.
Here are some of the conclusions I have come up with (on my own and
with some of my friends)
1. Since she is a newbie, she has to agree with whatever the Senior
says. (Boot licking)
2. The truth - She really doesn't like me. ( I have to start be
careful of her )
3. I am being sensetive ( well, I am a woman )
Should I tell her how I feel about this incident? (my friends said
don't cos we don know each other well n she may turns her back on
me one day and use this incident against me. Saying I m a petty
person who can't take a joke)
So, tell me what are your conclusion of this matter n if possible,
some solutions...
Thx
she more friendly and more sociable then you?so she have more
backup higher people like her then u she backstab you lo it is a
dog eat dog world.
