Or at least 80-90 % of it. Started a new job last month and everything was going well until three weeks ago. Two guys who started later than me started shittalking to me and after a couple days I told one of them to fuck off and he did, the other one was silent for a few days and started again. I took him out of the office to talk with him and it escalated into shouting and threatening each other. We were warned by HR not to do that again, the day after everything was fine but the weekend after I see more people got distanced and colder, some actively sabotage my work and try to make me look stupid while I excel most of them. Another week passes and it becomes even worse. Lots of gossip without me knowing anything that is said and using the few allies bit by bit.Usually I don't care but even when I ignore it it stresses me and I become sick and need to take days off.Tips?
>>33880216*losing the few allies I have bit by bit.
I accidently posted the thread on /lit/ and these are the responses so far.
>>33880216Same sort of? Meh normalfags
>>33880216>Tips?Don't get into a shouting match with anyone at work. Or outside of work for that matter. It never results in something positive happening and it's always a waste of time. At best you look like an asshole in public. At worst it escalates and you go to prison.Practical advice though? Get a candy bucket. Keep it stocked up and up high, near the top of your cubicle. Encourage anyone and everyone to stop by for some candy from the bucket. Keep some sugar free sweets on hand as well for the diabetics and those watching their weight.When they eventually do, ask them about their day. Give them a chance to vent. Listen, agree their situation sucks, and tell them good luck.By offering them something sweet and an opportunity to bitch, you'll start climbing the office social ladder. They'll start protecting you since you give them something nobody else in that building does. A moment of reprieve from that soul draining existence.
>>33880612Thing is, I live in a Balkan country and acting like that is seen as weakness here, and in my situation would be seen as buying their loyalty, also feeding into their fucked up sense of weakness.The only thing I can say is: whenever I am upbeat and energetic it feels like I am garlic to vampires, their presence becomes small. When I become more worried and paranoid they sense it and latch onto sucking out my negative emotions. In the first days of the week I feel great, but in the middle I feel suddenly drained, sickly and anti-social, weekend recovers me and the cycle starts again.
Bump
>>33880662It kinda sounds like your masking a little, Anon. Bring the donuts and candy and remain upbeat to kill them, then when your on your FreeTime tap out and relax when no one's watching to re-energize.
>>33882722I dunno what you mean with masking. I am simply in a better mood in the beginning of the week than later on.
Bump it
nigger just shoot up your workplace who cares, dumb bitch do they pay you? fucking nigger
fuck their wives
Why did I even make a thread here? Unless it is a women/faggot related problem nobody gives a shit.
>>33880216Details matter, and you're not giving them, so I must assume you said something horrendous, which you just don't admit to right now. Let me guess: Racist outburst?Next time maybe try to remember that real life aint 4chan.
>>33888342>detailsI provided enough context, now you play guilty until proven innocent. I am not going to doxx myself. I did absolutely nothing and was provoked for no reason, literally none, except being the only one with blonde eyes and blonde hair and excelling at training/work. Envy is what drove them.
>>33880216what did they say about you thought. Maybe just find the root of the problem first
>>33880216It is all in your head. Stop being a pussy at work. If you think nobody likes you, nobody will.
>>33889156Most people liked me in the beginning. Clearly this is not in my head.
Happens to me also all the time.I think the problem is that introvert people are not built for working in a modern workplace.Modern workplaces are all about co-laboration and being extroverted in variaous ways.Back in the 1950, most peolpe who worked in for example car factories, they did not even have time to talk to each other or get to know each others names.Not saying that was great or anything. But the emphasis has not always been on co-laboration and extroversion.Just ignore it and give it some time. Try to bite your tounge and let them just rape you mentally. It does not matter who is right or wrong OP. If the quality of the work suffers due to these people, managers will notice.
>>33889243>If the quality of the work suffers due to these people, managers will notice.I should have frame it like that from the beginning to my supervisor instead of confronting the instigator. What did I expect from someone with sneaky and effeminate ways to demean someone? I am not introverted btw. I am very extroverted and even as a foreigner I had many key people around my finger, not that I calculated that but this is how I am. Some guys felt threatened by that and needed to destroy whatever I had. It is envy at the end of the day.
