there really isn't too much that you can do without giving her the wrong impression, it would be a lot different if she were just a co worker, but since she's a supervisor  i'd learn to live with it

Simply don't ask for her advice or help anymore. If she tries to pry into your personal life of wanting to dish out advice, tell her you have confided in someone who listens, from an objective point of view.

Just let her rant and rave. I'm sure you're doing an excellent job, so keep it up. Show your boss through your deeds that you are a valuable employee, and you have nothing to worry about. If your boss wants to confide in you, they will. Until then, do your job to the best of your ability and let that womans voice just drift off into the background. Every work place has them....unfortunately.

Well, first of all, find comfort in knowing that she is the one with the problem, not you.  People like that can make you judge your own sanity, but be assured that she is the bad guy.\n\nAvoid her as much as you can.  When you do have to interact with her, have all of your questions/projects lined up and ready to go, so you can go right down the line and move as quickly as possible in getting your work details done.\n\nIf the problem escalates, calmly tell her that her behavior is inappropriate, and then document her behaviors in case you need to provide them to HR.  Unfortunately, this might not work, because these types often see their behavior as completely normal, either due to a psychological problem, or just plain immaturity.  My guess is that she'll tell you that you need to "lighten up".\n\nI truly do wish you the best.  I work with a guy who has Asperger's, and every single day is a struggle with him.

lol, just ignore her. Who knows what is going through her head. She's old with wrinkles and probably sees you as a beauitful young woman and is jealous. If she says anything to you tell her you're not interested in her husband then smile and thank her for asking.

That's a toughie!!!  It really depends on your position.  Are you in any way above her or responsible for her performance?  If so, definately yes.  You have the right and responsibility to correct her.  If you are simply co-workers....no; unless her duties and yours intertwine in such a way that you could be mistakenly blamed for her carelessness.  Poor grammar could be due to lack of intellect or laziness.  Not much you can do about either.  If the two of you are somewhat friends, you could try using light humor as an attempt to correct her.  If not, then any real attempt at correcting her will only breed resentment and ill-will.  You may even end up a laughingstock as the "grammar police".  Best advice, assuming that you're not her superior, just leave it alone.  Eventually the boss will realize that she's not that bright.  However, if she's doing her job and doing it well, nothing may come of it.  If that's the case, you need to leave your pet peeve at the door.  Good Luck

Leave it alone. Nothing is more uncomfortable then having to face that person at work during a relationship period.  She need to grow up and do something about her life and you should just be her friend and quit sharing her business on the internet

Do I work with you?  Are you talking about me?\n\nJust say something like, you know I like talking with you, but I'm in the middle of something and don't want to get distracted.  That shouldn't hurt her feelings, but you'll get her away.

I'm wondering if it's not you in this situation?  Maybe you should check yourself. None the less, if she's mouthing off to you, ball your fist up and knock at least two of her front teeth out, and say, "Hey bitch who do you think your talking shit to?"  Bet she won't talk mess to you again.\n"HUMIIATION", is not good.

She sounds pushy and high maintenance. Boy are you in for it.\n\nJust tell her what you said here. Tell her no because you dont know her well enough yet.

Talk with her, let her know how you feel and ask her to stop doing it. Word it in a way that doesn't sound critical and she'll be more apt to listen.

It sounds like you have a micro manager who want her hands on everything that goes on in the office....\n\nA pleasant way is to call a meeting with her and explain to her that you have the experience and professionalism to deal with clients and it undermines your abilitity and confidence when she interupts....Not that she isn't helpful and infact you learned a great deal from her doing it but you would appreciate it if she gives you the chance to grow...\n\nThen, if she doesn't stop and interupts your conversation with a client just say out loud, not too loud but loud enough so that others would hear "Excuse me would you stop micromanaging and allow me to do my job?!

Talk to her...tell her how much you value her as a worker, and all the reasons why you do; but explain that it would be helpful if she adopted a little bit more of a professional behavior on the emotional part. Ask her to practice at expressing her problems in a reasoned, unemotional way; and to consider that there are other people working with her who can not keep trying to adjust to her varying needs. \nGood luck.

cover your a$$, cya, CYA.  If you can keep your contact with her to a minimum then by all means, do so.  Make sure that you cover all your bases when you are at the old jobsite.  See if someone else at your old company could be your point of contact.  If her complaints are general, then maybe you could talk to her supervisor and see if something could be resolved that way. If there is already a record of a problem between the two of you, then your old company should be able to restrict her from harassing you further. \n    Good luck to you.

Are you crazy!  You have no choice but to sack her.  It is theft as well as just plain dishonest.  If you keep her on your staff You are reflecting a belief that you condone such activities.

That's a tough situation.  Just tell her "Look there's something I need to tell you that you aren't going to like, but I think you need to know."  I hope she handles it well and doesn't blame you.  Just be honest, talk to her, and be supportive with whatever she decides to do with the information.
