You know good and damn well she's not gonna just hit you unprovoked, or she wouldve done it by now. Just stay out of her way and congrats on not being 'ghetto'

Hmm, I'm starting to see why she may not like you. So because she's overweight you think she's violent? What's wrong with you?


LMAO! that's funny.
but to clarify - i wasn't intimidated until she said she didn't like me! i don't want her ghetto ass to hit me or something


Why do you think she would hit you? And what's with the "ghetto ass" thing -- is this a euphemism for black?


Are you and your colleague black, OP?

OP has not talked to her beyond greetings. I take it she didn't say "hello fatso".
OP, are you slim and well-dressed? You may have been automatically targeted. Plus, if you're new and she's been in place for years, she might feel threatened.


OP never said that. I smell sock puppet.

This isn't really consistent with your original post. The only reason you said something to her in the first place was because you were pissed with how she was treating you.

Goodness. That would make my job so stressful! Has she done anything that justifies going to HR for harassment? If she sends you a nasty email or is rude to you in front of someone else, use that.

Hang in there, OP. I had a co-worker send me crazy emails, but luckily she was persuaded to quit because she was phoning it in anyway. I was about to forward her emails to my boss.

I get why that was unpleasant, but how does that translate to threatening?

Be polite. Don't engage. Keep your distance. Never be alone with her. Never send emails without having someone else on it.

my colleague had been rude to me for months. this week i finally asked her what her problem with me was and she said, "i just don't like the way you walk around thinking you're all that. i think you are rude and disrespectful." i barely know this woman and have nothing to her except say good morning. wtf?
