She is pointing out problems to make herself look good, because she knows she doesn't work hard but wants to keep her job by showing her bosses how important she is in finding problems. She has been there for a long time because your bosses are stupid. If your bosses are dumb enough to keep her around, you have nothing to worry about especially if you do your work.I have this problem at work i need advice..dont read unless ya got a few minutes..?
You need to learn what business is all about. It is not about working hard. It is about getting others to work for you, so you don't have to. Don't resent your lazy co-worker. She has simply understood business better than you have.

Your frustration comes from your perspective as an employee - and not as a boss. Life is real good for bosses - but not for employees. Your co-worker is simply trying to live the life your bosses live.

Bosses make a fortune off your labor. They pay you 20%, and keep the rest. Bosses control the business and the profit. Learn to get that profit for yourself and you'll stop caring about lazy co-workers.

Is this your first ';real'; job? If so, perhaps you could actually learn from this situation. Your post would suggest that you are young and new to the working world. Schedule a meeting with your co-workers and boss and ask for contructive critisism of your work. If you show that you truly want to succeed, most people are eager to help you do so.
Get a new job-- sounds like too much drama already!!
Use some basic guile, imagination, and stealth against this loser.
You already have another person in alliance with you-use it to your mutual advantage. Set her up to talk about [against] one of the bosses who won't take this seriously, and then he or she will.
The reason they haven't up 'til now is that it is not personal to them. Put the shoe on their foot, and they WILL get rid of this goldbricker, but fast, unless she's the owner's daughter, wife, niece or other close relative. If that's the case, rotsa ruck-you may as well start looking for a new position elsewhere.
Of COURSE, you can go to him with the problem!!!
DON'T BE A WIMP!
All that can come of it is good!
I see your point about her, BUT!!!! You have to stand your ground!!! Do what is right---I guess there are two choices--handle it or say something---hmmmmm, I would say something, and just leave names out and say, ';Not everyone here is carrying their load.';'; and STOP TALKING! LOOK HIM STRAIGHT IN THE EYE, AND WAIT FOR AN ANSWER,.. OR A QUESTION FROM HIM. TRY NOT TO USE NAMES...!!!!!!!
I'M TELLING YOU, PEOPLE are NOTICING HER---ABSOLUTELY IGNORE HER. SAY, ';Oh , hi!';, AND GET BACK TO WHAT YOU WERE DOING.
(IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU ARE AS MUCH IN HER BUSINESS AS SHE IS IN YOURS.)

Go to your boss or the HR dept., and tell them you and her seem to have a personality conflict, and could they have a meeting with the two of you and lay it out. I'm sure they will see through her and do something about it. But YOU must go and ask
the best thing to do is just do your job well and stay well clear of her way. but if you have encounters with her, make sure you are extra nice to her even if you want to tear her eyes out. this usually gets the bad guys. they can't stand people they bad mouth being extra nice to them even if they are aware of what they did.
so as not to be caught flat-footed by your bosses, always have your work and correspondence in black %26amp; white and file them for future needs. make sure you do your work well.
if after doing all these and your bosses still side with her, its high time you moved on. you'd be getting nowhere in your company with her around anyway.
Remember that your boss has a boss and if you feel you will not get treated fairly by your 's, than go to theirs... Good Luck
I wish I knew the answer. I had such a problem with a nasty brute in my work, from 1969 till 1987 when I didn't have to work with him any more.
The bosses loved him. He worked hard at routine stuff, but when the equipment broke, he just took new parts and threw old stuff aside, and didn't bother to fix anything. And, someone else had to deal with the broken stuff, but the bosses loved him because he sold a lot of stuff fast. We all had to stop and fix our stuff.
He told the bosses I didn't need to work overtime, there was no work on my station, then he'd work on my station all weekend. And, Monday, he'd give me the broken equipment, and sometimes I fixed it in less than five minutes. We noticed that after I fixed in a few minutes what he couldn't fix all weekend, he'd get up and wander out of the area.
Finally, someone followed him discreetly, and discovered he'd run up and tell the boss what a worthles technician I was!!! And, I'd just fixed in minutes what he couldn't fix in a whole weekend.
I never did find a solution. I sure feel for you, since I know what hell he put me through year after years.
In the long-term, if there are other employers for your talents, leaving is the only solution. In my case, we worked at a very high-tech electronics company, if you fly there is a good chance the plane has stuff from our company, so there were no local choices for employment.
If I heard that man were dying a terrible death of pancreatic cancer, as cruel as it is, I would cheer!
TALK TO YOUR BOSSES... they can resolve it...... also try to hang on a little longer.... try getting noise canceling earphones or ask if you could move your desk.... if you are there for a while longer then the bosses will see that you are a hard worker.... evrything will work out... that job may not even be right for you.... who knows?
glad to hear that u actually love your job, have u try talking to her and find out what happen, maybe she find u and the other lady is a trad to her and she is feeling insecure. Try making friend or maybe find out from the others is she always like that to new colleague. If the job is really what u r looking for always check ourselves, have we done anything that courses any problem in our work place, anyway any organisation will have the same problem is just how bad it get out of hand and how we can manage it to our level. ALL THE BEST TO YOU! hang in there, the sun will shine on your side one day !
