[quote=Anonymous]Recently started a new job and another coworker is also new. Her communication style is just plain rude so I have been getting tense sometimes. Yesterday at a group meeting I snapped a little and asked her to let me finish. Hopefully, now she will get the idea and back off. Last week there were meetings held to discuss how others are feeling about her. I know that because another coworker told me. Later I told her I wasn't used to her communication style because I wasn't sure how to address it. In the group meeting, we were passing around a short article to read and when it was my turn as she was passing it she told me to hurry up and read it. We work with young children and she's been getting headaches she says because they are too loud at recess. When I mentioned my degree in another group meeting because we were asked to introduce our background she kind of dismissed it as if it was not needed/ real because it wasn't around when she was in college and my degree is related to education. The school I work at is niche and I do have a degree in that method. What makes this even more complicated is that my son attends the school and she's the temporary substitute in his class but may be the main teacher next year. They have two lead teachers and an assistant because the lead teacher had back surgery but that teacher is back in the classroom with reduced hours. I think it's her delivery style and tone more than anything that annoys me. Has anyone gone through this before in a small setting? I can't ignore her completely.
