Let the manager talk to her. This woman needs to be taught a valuable lesson that if she behaves inappropriately in work there will be consequences. She seriously needs taking down a peg or three.

The last thing you want when you're looking to improve yourself in work is someone holding you back / affecting you. Definitely keep a log as KotE said, you can always have it to hand if you do decide to officially report her

That's the joke kitty - she's 3 years younger than me! And works part time! And yet I feel sick going in when I know she'll be there.
I'm disgusted with myself for letting another person make me feel so bad about myself and my capability in.work more than anything

Don't let yourself be treated like that. You're older so act bolder do your job and if she's behaving like this now if you don't do something about it she may get worse.

Aww try not to be Sarah! Best thing you can do is focus on your work (easier said than done), try not to let her ignore you and show her who the bigger person is

Oh yeah, paper trails are hilariously funny when the ****ers aren't expecting it.

Now, off to work I goes.

Nobody should make you feel that way in work. If you get it established that you are above her in rank it might be an idea to get your line manager to explain it to this girl.

After that you can bring up any problems with her attitude or work ethic yourself.
If that fails to reach her you'll have to bring in your line manager.

For the moment anyway, try not to let this person get to you. If its becoming a major issue speak to your manager and see what they think.

Don't be sorry. You need an outlet for your frustration and this is it. Everyone here is I'm sure willing to help with advice and even though I don't know you in person you seem too good to be dragged down to that juvenile's level. Rise above it.
