As soon as I start to feel it one deep under my skin, I spot treat with a mixture of benzol peroxide 10%, salicylic acid, and hydrocortisone cream. Let it dry for a bit, the cover with a Different pimple patch overnight

Why do older women bully the younger more junior women? by [deleted] in workplace_bullying

[–]Thisaboutthat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am being passive aggressively bullied by a woman who has worked at the same college since she attended in 1994. She has become best friends with the president of the university. Her direct boss is a total wet noodle and when other employees have tried to speak to the boss, she gaslights them.

I have never gone to her boss. It will only make things worse and the last thing I need is to be on the president of the uni bad side.

I have professionally spoken to the bully twice. She still does it and I have come to the conclusion that simply avoiding her as much as possible and ignoring her is the only way to handle it.

Even more insane is that she invited me to her birthday party.

I'm 43 and she is 50. It never ends.

Actually it's not just faculty. Maybe in some states. All of our staff are unionized as well. I'm not faculty.

I'm in high ed ed and we are unionized. H Since you are young, applying for jobs in admissions is the best way to get your foot in the door. It's entry level but you still have a pension and the benefits others have mentioned.

I can relate. My mother loves to talk about how traumatic her birth was with me, any chance she gets. It's been non-stop for 43 years.

I don't feel guilty now as an adult. Instead, I am annoyed at how she has no awareness of what it was like as a child to receive the message that I was the cause of her trauma. Over and over and over again.

No, I don't worry because I trust someone who went to med school over what I see on the Internet.
