Dealing with a nasty co-worker

Well done today.

It’s smart to keep it all by email with this co-worker because there will always be a paper trail to refute any other games she might try to play in the future. If you ever have oral discussions with this woman, make sure you follow up with a confirming email asking specifically if you have understood all correctly.

And you have proven to be responsive to her request by sending fewer emails–so you are not leaving her a leg to stand on as far as things for her to complain about with respect to you.

You have a great attitude. Believe me, the rest of the office can see what is going on, and you are earning lots of brownie points by handling this like an adult.
