work help: So this lady at work told me to apply for a FT job - Help.com

Ask to be relocated. When people start being aholes like that that’s just the first signs that they are going to make your life hell.

How do you know she said this to the hiring manager? Because if she did she would not be telling anyone that she said it… the hiring manager wouldn’t be telling anyone she said it… Have you fallen victim to listening to gossip?

look for a full time job…. this sort of thing goes with temping and made worse if it is all female…i always ask for jobs that have all male or a mixed group

You didn’t mention you were pitched against her for a full time job…. That makes it a different set of circumstances…. To be honest her asking you to go for the job just ensured she had competition for the post and she couldn’t be later of accused of getting it because no one applied…. to then say you weren’t cut out for the job is what anyone would do if they want to make someone else look bad. Perfectly normal really but not very nice.

First Thanks for your advice! I know lady’s can be cut throat in the work place, I’m married to one (ha). Just kidding she is the greatest. I’m not qualified to give advice but I’d say be smart and don’t let emotions get involved. If she did something unethical she should be reported to a higher authority immediatly. Sometimes you catch more fly’s with honey if you know what I mean. Anyway good luck and be strong!
