I work in a building owned by the city with two organizations inside. We share a parking lot. Last year a staffer from the other organization did a hit and run on my vehicle. It was witnessed by our administrators and there was also obvious paint transfer. My license plate was the primary casualty and being from out of state it was a unique color of paint matched perfectly with my damage. She lied to the witness, myself, and insurance about the damages. At first ai just wanted an apology but when she said it didn’t happen I felt I had no choice but to report. For what it is worth, myself and three other staff witnessed her hit and run ANOTHER car a month later and she was accused of it a year prior without being able to prove it. This is a pattern.
I’m getting an offer letter today or Monday to work for the other agency in my building. In order to serve the people under my care, I have to get along with her. It’s for the benefit of everyone.
I came to antiwork because I trust this communities’ advice on work more than any other work-based Reddit sub. How would you approach this relationship?
I worry that she already lied to me about something silly (she was told in advance by admin if she admitted and apologized I wouldn’t call insurance). She chose to save face instead so I am wary of her.
