Why are girls mean for no reason?

Some people are just horrible. How old is she? In my experience when people act in such a nasty way, it’s their problem, not mine. She is quite likely insecure about something and she feels threatened by you. Just focus on doing your job. Don’t take the bait and continue to be nice and polite.

@Sunshinegirl11 Oh my! That stuff is inexcusable! I don’t believe there is a “reason” to be so rude. Maybe consider the source. @Earthbound_Misfit has some good advice. Meanwhile, you keep being the nice person you are! Hugs!

Rough guess, she thinks you’re more attractive than her…

She is jealous of you. Either because of your looks or the way you dress or your intelligence.
Ignore her and just be you. Congratulations on the new job!

I don’t know how long you’ve been in the workforce, but whether you’re a newbie or a vet, wait’ll you’ve worked at this company for a while, and at companies throughout career. Mean? I guarantee you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet!

It’s called… THE WORKPLACE. Took me 50 years but I finally escaped it.

First off, let’s clarify that not all girls are mean. Many are quite nice.

This girl, however, sounds like an ass. I would simply follow the great advice above and keep being you.

I promise you though, you’ll meet some nice people along the way too.

@chyna, for example. Girl and nice. Look for more of that.

She might be threatened by you.

Girl Squirrel and also nice!

If this continues, you might want to talk to your supervisor. This sort of drama is passive aggressive, and could potentially affect your work. It’s never appropriate in a work environment.

@Earthbound_Misfit: Yes, Girl Squirrel also very nice.

::bad cookie::

She is TOTALLY insecure! Act ignorant of her actions and talk. Be cool! Other’s will respect you for it.

She is so mean! I’ve had my own experience with mean girls. 2 of my own cousins are complete snobs.
