I have a co-worker who is very vocal about how unfair she thinks my accomodations are and complains about how they affect her. Thursday, she was just down right mean.
I had the stomach flu and was biding my time until my husband could pick me up. I received a call about one of her accounts. I added the info that was given. Apparently, I needed more info and that was my fault. Really wasn't a big deal. I fixed it. I mumbled some things I shouldn't have said, nothing serious, but I was so hurt.
I decided to take a break. I was crying and shaking and my muscles were all tense. When I came back, I told her I was sorry that I messed up on her account, but that she really hurt my feelings. She said she didn't care about my feelings. I appologized several more times, but she continued to be hateful. Didn't want a stomach bug, but at least I got to go home early and get away from the situation.
I have an opportunity to talk to my supervisor about this. Not sure if I should. I know my co-worker could really get into trouble if she continues to complain about my illness. I don't want to have a tense work relationship, but at the same time, she really needs to watch what she says.
Would you tell your supervisor, or just let things be and try to get over it? I could really use some advice.
