I can't prove it but I'll give you a bit of background info:
I work at a law-firm with all lawyers, this particular one is her 60's, a Senior attorney and suffers from obsessive compulsive speaking. That's right, she is an obsessive compulsive talker on the level of nothing I've ever seen before in my life (and I've come across many a motor-mouths in my day).
But unfortunately, that's not the problem (ironically enough). You see, she comes across as a sweet-heart with a great sense of humor, thing is, she speaks disparagingly about everyone, when they're not in the room!!! She speaks so ill on everyone yet when they are in the same room, she treats them like family
It's the biggest Jekyll and Hyde flip I've ever seen. As far as work goes, I'm not anti-social, but I'm very low-key. I don't really engage in office-gossip, although I know it's a reality of life at an office. However, this lady takes it to a whole new level, and not only that...she's tried several times to throw me under the bus and stick the knife in my back. Unfortunately for her, she's always failed and sometimes it even back-fires. She acts like such a child and her boss, who's my boss as well...treats me with way more respect than her - yet I'm 30 plus years younger. But I carry myself like an adult, she on the other-hand is a uber-gossip-whore, who acts like a child and has to be told to shut the fukk up by the big boss when we are trying to get work done. She breaks confidences to all those she calls friends, I know so much personal sh!t about people that I don't care to know smh.
Now, a dime who works in my office lost her luggage at the airport, this snake I work with had the nerve to jokingly say "You're beautiful, I guess God balances everything out". She's so vindicatively evil behind peoples' backs, yet so warm and friendly to their faces. Now I suspect her of trying to sabatoge my potential promotion by stealing my project-work related to it.
So, yesterday we were working and I decided to strike back...our boss walks into the room and I asked my boss if she could step outside to discuss something with me (Something I've never done in 5 years). The snake-lady clams up as we leave the room. When I get back into the room, for the first time in 5 years her obsessive compulsive talking ceases and she completely chokes up with nothing to say....at all. Not even a "Is everything all right?" - you figure if you didn't do anything wrong, and you're co-worker of 5 years, leaves the room with the head boss, at the very least you're going to ask "You iight?". Especially an inquisitive, nosey, snoopy, blabber-mouth like her. Instead she was silent and stiff and most of all....scared looking just like this --->
20 minutes later, she offers me discount passes to the bronx zoo for my kids...meanwhile she ain't never offered me shyt before. I looked at her like this
and said "Thanks for the offer". And like I said, she's stabbed me in the back several times over the last few years...all the while, I've covered her ass (only cause I won't stoop down to a snake's level...I stand by my ethics).
