The job that I work for I have been in for two months. This is a teacher position as well and I was assigned a mentor. In the beginning things were going well with her but I have started to notice some suspect things. Mainly that her attitude is very bossy. Yes she is one of those coworkers that like to act like your supervisor or let you know the ins and out about everything. Anyway she is also very particular about the room she teaches in. I was in her room for a couple hours and there was an emergency with one of her students. She teaches preschool. Now when this emergency happened I was in the process of cleaning but had to stop what I was doing to take care of the child. The situation happened during nap time so I was going to use that time to get back to my cleaning. When I finally had the time after making sure the child was okay she comes back into her room and that was my time to exit. So of course I wasn’t able to get everything done.
I see her later on in the day and of course she felt a way about it. I am in no way saying she should not addressed it but it is the way that she did it. After I told her I had to care for her child she still proceeds to lecture me on how she want things done. My problem with it is that she completely ignores the fact that there was an emergency involving her student and that I couldn’t clean everything else in time. I really felt bad about it and was apologetic but that was not enough. After that I did request to not be stationed in her room often because of how upset she became and I just rather not deal with it.
Of course after that things have become awkward. I just focus on my work and don’t interact with her. And because of this she is feeling a way. I don't speak to her outside of the classroom.
So she confronts me in another classroom and wanted to fight about it while the students were in the classroom with me and another coworker about no longer speaking to her. I am like what? First of all confronting me in a classroom with the children in there is highly inappropriate. She literally wanted to fight in the classroom because we are not speaking! I did report her. And I have continue to pay her dust but she is now forcing me to speak to her. She even stood in front of me saying hello five times until I acknowledge her. I sometimes have my earbuds in at work when I am not working and she would even force a response then. She tries to start conversations and it is very obvious I am ignoring her because after that stunt she pulled I don’t want that energy near me.
Now she will not leave me alone and forces interactions. If she can't get a hello from me she will keep trying throughout the day! Mind you I still ignore her but she keeps getting in my space. For some context in the past she has complimented my appearance on more than one occasion. I actually said to her you enjoy staring in my face and talking about how I look. She even mentioned having a girlfriend. Am I bugging or does this chick low-key have a crush on me and can’t handle the fact I no longer want to speak her? The things she is doing now is headed into creepy territory. I just started to do a freezer spell on her too lmao. How the fuck do I get rid of her? And the fact that I am new I know is a huge reason she is doing this shit. My boss wants to speak to me and her together soon as well. My boss feels she is trying too hard to make amends but I feel this is a power move on her part.
