Unfiltered Story #313250
There’s a been a bit of a ‘mean girls’ issue at work, a bunch of the attractive women band together to be catty and mean to others.
Honestly I thought I left this behind 10 years ago when I left school.
But no, they treat everyone not as thin and pretty as they are, with distant.
Clearly they see me as one of those women.
Claire is the ringleader, I think she peaked in school and is still trying to live that life.
She has always been horrid, but lately getting far worse, not even hiding her rude comments.
We are in a presentation meeting about a new product, a futuristic model comes up on screen.
Claire: oh wow, how does it balance like that?
Me: looks like a canterlever , all the weight is on one side and hidden.
Claire: did I ask for your opinion.
Mean girl 1: I think you kind of did.
Mean girl 2: to be fair (me) only answered your question
Claire: shut up! Your supposed to be on my side!
Mean girl 1: calm down, we are still on your side. But you know lately…
Claire: what?
Mean girl 1: well you know, it’s fun to gossip but…
Mean girl 2: you di sometimes take it a little far.
Claire: wow, just wow. Don’t speak to me , either of you.
(It was so awkward, like an over dramatic school play but acted by adults.
Claire sulked for months! The other two where actually pretty ok once you got to know them. The little trio never reformed , I feel a little sad for Claire, but she makes sure that doesn’t last when she makes comments about others appearance. )
