Years ago, a fellow coworker made thisbcomment and it stuck with me for years. Well I had to say it at work on Monday. Now we have 2 sections my section I work at and a restaurant off it. i work afternoons and an older lady during the day. 2 girls who worked in the other section since don't (they left on their will). Have been spreading rumors and lies. One being about me being with multiple men. OK if anyone knows me I'm certain in not entertaining 6 men after work. I just ignored them because frankly their jealous assuming being 25 ans no attention or work ethic. Well fast forward a month and turns out this older lady during the day is feeding it. How sad! I pity this lady that she is 75 and jealous of me. She has control issues ans I find out she one of those woman. She always dependent on a man, never supported herself and when her ex husband died left everyone but her stuff. She jealous and she found out I make more an hour as well as work more (she refuses weekends ans holidays). She doesn't understand I work double thr hours and make more money than her. But being 'one of those woman' she doesn't understand hard work ans paycheques.

I completely agree! I ignores the other girl who was spreading lies and rumors (the girl never did her job and they cut her hours when I suggested it).

Feeling jealous is just a normal feeling but what you do about it is another thing.

You may make more but you don't get a pension, and I'm sure she does.

@ricki_911 Perhaps she's afraid of losing her eligibility for the low income housing if she works more shifts, but she can't have it both ways.

@BarBaraPrz Completely! If she worked when she was younger she would have mite to retire. You can't be lazy in your 30s and 40s aexpecting to have a luxury retirement. I don't pity anyone like that they tend to be the lazier type. The same time few months back when they cut hours due to COVID she whined and whined. They cut ny hours for her and then she refused to work certain days but would call me last minute. So I finally said nope unless I'm scheduled for it

She does yes and low income housing. She whines repeatedly how she has no money and struggles. When I suggest her work extra shifts (it's her, I and owner woeking). I work 6 days 54 hours (last week I did a fee doubles because his lady refused to work).

No matter what the reason is, it's wrong to spread rumors and lies on others. That's very low.

Sounds like everyone's turning into a 'Karen' thease days, especially the older generation who seem to becoming more entitled in their old age.

I have been a victim of jealousy. But I don't like "hiding" my abilities to make others feel good about themselves.
