Has anyone ever been the victim of bad rumors at work? I just heard bad stuff we're being said about me behind my back by vicious and jealous co-workers. This thing had been going on for quite a while and noone ever told me or even took my defense.

It puts me in a very difficult situation as my boss heard about it. She thinks I'm not a good "team-player" so it's ruining my reputation and my chances of moving to an even better position.

I basically spent 2 days crying non-stop. I just moved in this new town and since my social life is not that crazy yet, i was investing a lot in my work.

The thing is, I love my work and I was trying to do it well and then this gossiping is just ruining everything by making me look like I'm some kind of mean bitch.

I guess I just need some comfort and maybe some people to tell me they went through the same problems,
thanks!

My car broke down so the other day I had to call my friend and her boyfriend for a ride home from work. I knew they didn't feel like doing it because they were at work all day too and had to go out of their way. Then they get there and have to stand around for a half hour waiting because my co-worker was late. And of course when he finally arrives he starts wandering around instead of immediately going to the register.

We have one register, so when the shifts change you have to count down all the money in the drawer, THEN print a report, THEN you can do the paperwork and leave! So of course when the next shift comes in you want to hurry up and do this right away. But this guy likes to "warm up" to being at work or something by making me wait all the time.

I broke shift without him and then I'm trying to do my paperwork while ringing out 47575894 customers at the same time while he is still wandering around. You'd think that when you're 30 minutes late and the person who's supposed to be leaving has people waiting for her you would get off your ass and ring!
