OMG THATS HORRIBLE!
first of all, i would have been heartbroken - and you didnt even get crazy about it you seemed to handle it very well - since the girl really overreacted i think she was probably really embarassed AND that is probably the tip of the iceberg! they both sound so jealous - i mean my friends and i gossip but you are supposed to be somewhat mature in a work environment!!!!!
ugh you are doing the right thing by looking for a new job, make sure you mention to your boss that these girls may try to pull something ( only if you are close to him/her) and distance yourself from both of them
if they realize how stupid they were maybe they will change their ways!
i work in a pretty relaxed work environment but i could never imagine someone slamming a door or cursing about a personal matter - that is unacceptable!

That is so crappy. I would be so upset and I would absolutly tell her that she is not invited to the wedding. I would not want someone in my wedding party that talks bad about me. Sorry this happen to you today. I work for citigroup in the city. Not sure exactly what you are looking for but I know we are hiring for a few things if you would like to send me your resume. I can at least get it to the right ppl.

Re: so pissed off today! VERY LONG
do you have a human resources dept that you can speak to about it? Something like that should not be happening in a professional setting. And they had the nerve to call you immature? What field of work are you in?

Kim... I can't even begin to comment on the behavior of your co-workers! I'm truly disgusted! WHO DOES THAT?! As far as the girl who is your BM... kick her out. She clearly has no problem hurting your feelings, than why should you care about hurting her's. It sounds like you work in a separate area than these people, so I wouldn't even worry about tension between them while you're working.... besides you're on the hunt for something better!!! Chin up girl! Don't let the 12 year olds getcha down!

Aww, Kim.... try not to think about it... do NOT let those girls see they got the best of you! Surf LI-dub and you'll be fine. If nothing else can take your mind off of this immature bullsh!t than LI-dub will!

Oh man. Whats her direct line? I'll give her a buzz.
The one chick is a dirty prostitute. And your BM? If you don't vote her off the island (Aruba)... we will.
So sad how jealous people become. They're just not happy with their own lives.

QUESTION......do i tell my boss?

Re: so pissed off today! VERY LONG
No - I don't think so. I've learned this the hard way.
My boss definitely thought it made me seem weak when I would come to her with a personal conflict (however, we didn't have an HR person...so I didn't know who to turn to...). Obviously she never said that I was weak, but she was obviously disappointed that I couldn't handle the conflict by myself.
(Side note: The girl was a raging b*tch and no one could deal with her. I was the first to speak up about it.)
If she causes lots of drama in the office I'd consider saying something to your boss, but again, think about your bosses reaction. It's not work related - its personal...
It's touchy and depends on your boss.
Hang in there girl!

Right, she hit you with a door, but it was over a personal matter. I'm not condoning it (again, she's a b*tchface), but you'll make it even bigger drama if you bring your boss into it.
But hey....in the parking lot, I say you should beat her a$$

So sorry you had to go through that Kim! I'm glad you didn't hesitate to let them know that you'd heard everything! She was embarrassed and shamed! ...and good for you for keeping your cool.
As for the cursing and name calling, that was SO uncalled for! She definitely doesn't deserve an invitation. If I understood correctly though... your BM wasn't in the room when you were speaking to the other girl... talk to your BM about everything and see what she has to say! You seem like such a sweet girl.. people can be so ridiculous! Sounds like jealousy for sure!
Anyway, I'm sure you're trying to forget about the whole thing so yea.. like the other Kim said... do some more surfing and enjoy the rest of your day. Don't let the idiot get to ya! You're way better than all of that!
Best wishes!
Oh! and don't leave your job if you just got a promotion! You're doing so well there! If anything, speak to your boss about what's going on. Good luck!

Re: so pissed off today! VERY LONG
I started writing out this whole schpiel about why you should or shouldn't talk to you boss, but then I think if I was in your situation, I would definitely bring it to his/her attention. There's a huge difference between tattling and bringing to someone's attention. I think your boss needs to be aware of his/her employees actions and behavior... there is only so much you can handle on your own with co-workers before you start to look bad and/or get into trouble yourself.
