[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop analyzing her, OP. You have minimal contact with her, since you work at home. Just continue to act professionally and do not engage in conversations that don't directly have to do with work.

Be amicable, and just do your job.[/quote]

OP, here. Yes, I agree. I try. However, she shared with our group during a workshop at the conference that her husband's father was an abusive alcoholic and he was raised by his grandparents. She was practically in tears. She shared that her husband was a good man but did not make much money, and they had a daughter now entering college.

Just yesterday on our biweekly phone meeting, a 30 minute call, she shared she was taking off for vacation for a week, going to a spa to meet a friend of hers who was doing very well for herself. Her friend created her own position at her company and also telecommutes. My boss told me that she thought that is what her role at this non profit would be like. She said she was still bringing her laptop with her.

I am not going out of my way to analyze this woman. She volunteers the information about her personal and financial struggles. She also doesn't seem to know how to effectively manage the job and her time.

I don't particularly want her to push her stress and anxiety down to me. That's what I am trying to avoid. [/quote]
