Ice Princess to me but not to others Written by HelgasOfficePolitics on 03/02/2011I'm not a whiner or a drama queen and mostly keep my discontent bottled up inside, but I'm electing to express my frustrations here in the hope of finding some sort of relief... please, God!

For several months "Aggie" (short for AGGRAVATION) has been Miss Ice Princess towards me and my boss, but is Jolly Judy toward everyone else. What's puzzling is that I've done nothing to this person. I let it roll off of me when she first began acting this way toward me and continued to treat her as I'd always done: greeting her and smiling in passing. After a while I got sick of it and decided that I was finished being polite to someone that didn't reciprocate, so I don't give her a second of my time: no greetings, no glances, no smiles. Finito!

I suspect that she's upset with my boss and I for not allowing her slacker co worker friend to transfer to a position that works closely with hers. "Slacker" misses work all the time, is on the virge of getting fired, and would not be a good fit for this very demanding position that is vital to our daily operations. Apparently Slacker has Aggie fooled as to her actual levels of productivity & dedication.

I have no desire to speak to Aggie or to smooth things out, however I do speak to her if necessary for work related issues, but that's not often. I'm a no-nonsense gal and don't have time for such pettiness.

If there's others out there who work with their own "Aggie" just know that you're not alone. Thanks for allowing me to vent, Jobschmob.

"Apparantly Slacker has Aggie fooled as to her actual levels of productivity & dedication." Just know that you are not alone and I see this all the time too. I cannot believe what others don't notice.
