How would you handle a coworker ( your trainer) who speaks to you in a very condescending tone?

She doesn't speak to ANYONE ELSE the way she speaks to me.

She'll route back items that I've made a mistake on ( through the computer) and wont say whats wrong with it. When I ask, i get told to figure it out. Like in a rude way. Anyone else asks " oh look right here, you forgot [blank]".

I haven't even been here for a month and I'm tired of putting up with her antics.

The manager seems rude herself. She's never asked how things/ training is going.

@SatyrService she trained me. She is the one who checks our work but we have the same job title

@iamnikki so here are some reason why, and a suggestion on what to do about it.
she may fear you are better at the job, and trying to harsh your confidence
she may have some prejudgement, ethnicity, nationality etc. ( are the others she is NICE to. of the same group?)
she may have a crush on you,, and is trying to skip that feeling

what to do?

1 politely confront Why do you talk to me that way? why ONLY me?

2 maybe tell someone upline from you?

3 let is slide off your back like water from a duck.

any of this make sense?
