Hey Peacebaby,
She's not my boss. In fact, I'm an employee and she is a 'temporarly' hired employee of commercial company, who came in our company with a set assignment.
I don't mind when my boss takes 'credit' for my work: in that situation I would just be forfilling certain of his/her targets. And that's why I was hired. I feel this situation is very different.
You are right I shoudn't jeopardise my position: as I said, the plan that she put her name under was not particularry important to me. Still I don't think I can be neutral in the future
Someone has stolen my work and I feel pissed off. :steam:
I have been working with this person for a year now and up till now our working relationship has been OK. Recently I have writen a plan and she has putten her name on it like it was hers, and she gave it to our superiors (of which some actually know that I have made up and writen the plan).
The plan itself doesn’t mean so much to me, it was fine not brilliant. What got crushed is my ego. By that I mean that she dared to take professional advantage of me and obviously thinks she can. This idea of her may now be confirmed because I until now haven’t spoken up (she knows that I know about this).
Now I plan to totally screw her (haven’t descided exactly how yet ). Or should I just confront her? I do not feel like that at all, but we will have to remain working together.
What would you do? Screw her or confront her????
She's an outside consultant? Go ahead and raise hell then. You have more cachet within the organization than she does, since she's an outsider. When it comes down to a "he said-she said" situation, if you have evidence, there's no way she'll even come close to being believed over you.
Remember, in-group and out-group dynamics are something that can be used to your advantage.
Welcome to the working world. if I spent time plotting the downfall of everyone in my job who has back stabbed me, I'd have no time for work.. Sorry to say, this type of stuff happens ALL.THE. TIME. in office situations. Coworkers do it, bosses do it, birds and bees do it
My advice would be to confront her in a non aggressive way and from now on watch your back around her.Also any time you have good ideas, make sure your manager/supervisor knows what you're working on. That way when a coworker tries to steal your idea they immediately look stupid because your boss already knows you were the originator.
tread carefully because higher ups tend to not like tattle tales. make it as casual as possible.for instance are there some elements of the original idea that she left out? if so then definitely bring those upI know I just can set off an 'eleminationproces' by bringing this incident casually up while talking to some keyfigures
screw her, then confront her.What would you do? Screw her or confront her????
The key to bringing people down in the workplace is to make it seem like it was actually someone else's idea to bring them down..
mouhahahahahahahaha
Kill that bitch.
Confront her parents, tell them you had nothing to do with it, move to America, live with me. Have children.
you mean tell on her, play innocent, flee the country, find yourself a nice man, get youself busy and forget about it?
Yes, you're right about that. She is valued by some, but I'm highly valued and I am in a stable position. I have gathered I quite unique expertise in my company that can't be missed or replaced in a acceptable amount of time.
