I avoided one one co-worker for a few weeks. She was horrible to me. She would talk behind my back, make fun of me to my face (but in a way that it could be taken that she wasn't, but I saw her looking over at me after she said things and I knew she was making fun of me.).
One day I was making drinks on the espresso machine and I'm not fast, but I do it at an ok speed. We were slightly busy but there was not a massive line of drinks to be made. We are talking a row of five and I was getting them done at a decent pace. She comes over and literally moves me out of the way and takes over because I was too slow. I may be slower than most but I make sure its done right and I keep my work area clean.
From what I heard from another co-worker, she didn't like me because I had priority issues. Supposedly when something needed to be done, I would go off and do something else. This is a load of bull because I do all the things that everyone else takes for granted. If I didn't wash the dishes or take out the trash, or clean up the work areas, or stock supplies, everyone else would be up poo's creek without a paddle because they were too busy to do it themselves. Also, there have been many times I have been left to run the cafe by myself for over an hour. (we have a big-ish cafe. Seats almost 50) I handle it just fine and I STILL leave the cafe clean.
So thankfully she left last weekend and I'll never have to deal with her again. Unfortunatly a few other people who were closer to her have taken her side in everything and I've become somewhat unliked there. I'm just going to grin and bare it and work even harder.
