I have an annoying coworker.
I’m coming back from vacation next week and there is a fair Possibility that i will have to work with the worlds most annoying coworker. Previously she drove me nuts by:
Constantly visiting my room unannounced both during work hours and after work when I’m trying to go home, assuming I have endless free time.
Visiting my room to discuss non urgent matters when she could just as easily send an email
Delivering messages and directives that should come from administration (I talked to admin about that bc it led to problems)
Redoing some of my work
Imposing demands (review of petty paperwork, submission of my paperwork etc) that satisfy her OCD need to overachieve
Liaising with administration when she doesn’t like a decision in order to have it changed how she likes.
This is a very junior coworker less than 5 years of experience, , a late 20 something year old when I have 20 years under my belt. Every time she comes to me I get my back up. What’s more is Several people feel exactly the same way I do about her as I do as she is a nuisance to them also.
How can I professionally tell her to back off? Should I discuss with administration?
