I grind my teeth everyday at work. A co-worker has torn my nerves to pieces. She's nice but has an excuse for everything. She's always late for work or calls out every chance she gets. When she's at work she has some kind of sickness that she diagnosis herself. The other co-workers avoid her at all cost. She pretty much gets paid for driving us all nuts. The thing is she doesnt realize how important it is right now in this day and time to even have a job. I know people who would love to have her job and even get paid for less. It's funny how she can come and go as she pleases and when she's at work she doesnt finish what she starts. Everyone is sick up picking up the pieces for her. We get paid to do our job plus hers. Oh not to mention its not even ok to complain about her because her father ownes the company.Other co-workers that has complained about her in the past, said it want do any good. The boss just made excuses for her. I love my job, but like everyone else i'm tired of the situation.

You are so right. I should invite her to a dinner and kind of let her know how i feel. Thanks

wooh the funny thing about is that, she is the daughter of the company owner as you said right? therefore she's really someone their at your office, its but natural for her to be acting indifferently from you as ordinary employees, when you complain what will be at risk might be your job. The good thing to do is to focus on your work then build your own company to get out from her irritating view, I mean strive harder to find a better lack.

Hi there. Wow, she can really be irritating. I can relate 'coz we also have office mates who act that way. I suggest that you should not always make the first move to befriend her. It looks like she is some kind of a selfish person. Just try to work professionally with her. You need not go out of the way to reach out. If she doesn't appreciate your reaching out, then just be indifferent with everything she does.
