I am new at my job and was supposed to have the overlapping shift. This person has been talking with the supervisor to try to change things around. One of the benefits of the overlapping shift is that it is easier to take off. Since you overlap others' shifts.
I think she said something like I was afraid to be alone, however I am not afraid to be alone. It is simply a better shift.
Even writing this is helping me a little. I need to reiterate that I am not afraid to be alone, but we had agreed that I was taking the overlapping shift.
How do I deal with this person though? I would like to say something to get her to back off. I am a little annoyed at the supervisor too for being easily brainwashed into this person's ideas instead of holding the line.
I am also concerned because of how she misrepresents others. She said I was afraid to be alone when this is not true. I never said that. I would like to address with her as to what she said about me but I am not sure how.
She has said things about our other co-workers which are not true. People like this kind of hate me because I will not believe what they're saying. For example, the other day I said, “I don't think xxx is like that.” She was saying something about one of the better people there.
