Do Good and Let Others Speak

The case at work with Aunty has become from a drama case to a five years old's rant. At first, I was pretty shocked by her behaviors towards me and work. But after she assured me that it has nothing personal to do with me, I kinda gave her a leeway to communicate with me as per usual.

So, recapping.... at first she was offended at how I got to give the presentation on ground rules, which was not actually about ground rules. I tried really hard to make sure I don't step on her toes and Boss has apologized to her so many times on the wrong terminology used for the name of the presentation. "Hein's not giving a presentation on presentation and he's only giving a guideline on technical training". Get it? TECHNICAL TRAINING. That involves me.

Then, she came and talked to me and said 'This has nothing to do with you personally', to which I've answered 'I'm just doing my job' and to which she shut up. Then, to ToyBoss, she said she felt left out.

So, the new thing now is how she's not happy that I get to give a presentation on "Household Roster". Now that's a technical thing. I was talking about how one must remember things and to fill out the questionnaire quickly to save time. I heard feedback that I did a great job and I felt good about it. This is just becoming too much.

I feel like she's jealous of me when I'm not even trying to do anything to get ahead of her. She's still on top of me, but she's NOTHING technical. Just because I have to take care of her team on technical things, she got jealous. BOss thinks that she has a huge grudge with something deeper than what she's been saying but since I was the easy target, she's been going on and on about me.

I did try to be nice to her today and the reaction was lame. She couldn't look me in the eyes and her response was just rude. To those who are reading this, I've got a case of babysitting a 50 year old lady who I have respected so much in the past.

It's funny and amazing what ego can do to you. I mean, if she didn't have a problem with me, why the uneasiness. Here I am trying to resolve things and be professional despite her immature complaints about me.

On the other hand, I'm glad ToyBoss and Boss are not siding or feeling sorry for anyone at the moment...

As I've said before, I'm doing good and letting others speak!!!
