Joking has escalated - Read Mod warning in post 1

All you have to say is your comment was not about her looks but about her ugly attitude towards you ,
You've ever right to tell her you feel she is ugly on the inside for commenting about your physical condition ,

I wonder what would happen if you walked in , sat down and said
iv been thinking about this over the week end and I don't think having this on her permanent record is warranted . if she apologises I wont report it . I feel the embarrassment of someone standing up to her is enough punishment for now

This person knows !!!!

I would agree with this. More then likely the person made a complaint and the supervisor has to talk with the OP. I have an example where my supervisor came to me to have a discussion because someone made a complaint (it was about noise) and it went look they made a complaint saying you are noisy I and nobody else think you are but I had to just say something.

It should go like this but if on the off chance it does/didn't (could be late here) have your defense ready saying it was reactionary but she started

Perhaps the OP should have made also make a complaint.

Thus far they've only received one.

Waiting all day to find out what happened

Went to the meeting today and straight away the other employee said to me, I don't know why we are here I was joking with you and you went mad. I didn't say anything to her. My supervisor said she was in the wrong to start slagging but I shouldn't of reacted like that. The other employee then apologised and so did I . They just said can we move on and I said yeah I just want to get on with my work. Leaving the room the other employee said it was just a laugh I didn't think you would react like that, if I did I wouldn't of said anything. I just said forget about it.
I don't want hassle in work I just want to get my work done and that's it.

I am reading from this she did nothing wrong and you went off the deep end.
You are still getting the blame in her eyes.

It must be terrible being baldy in this weather

This.

It appears to me she "won". What happened all the good advice we gave you?

Now it's like you have a rage issue and fly off the handle at "jokes". Because you know now she will tell others you "went mad" at the joke that she and the others laughed about when she called you baldy, and that you apologised for it.

You're a dead cert for a wig in the work Kris Kindle.

When someone treats you like OP has described, what they think isn't worth considering.

Good for you OP. I hope that taught her a lesson in cop on. What an appalling thing to say to anyone, she should be ashamed of herself. Hiding behind the "it was only a bit of craic" defence is the preserve of bullies and the terminally stupid.

In this modern age of 'the womans always right', you came out of this pretty well OP.

inforfun

Watch your back, OP.

And your dome.

Yes you were lucky. Live and learn but fair play for standing up for yourself, more men need to start doing that nowadays, although - and it's easy to say this when you're not in the heat of the moment - but perhaps more elegantly. I know, I'm as bad!

Good to see common sense prevailed all round.
