I'm sure most of you have had to deal with people who are rude at one time or another and because of it you learn to ignore the comments. However, there are some people out there, for whatever reason always seem to cut right though me. My boss is one of them. She always has a comment for everything and for some reason they're like stinging barbs and I can't seem to ignore them. For example, If I feel chilled in my office I'll put on a sweater- I don't make a big production of it, I just put the darn thing on and mind my own business, but heaven forbid my boss sees me put one one because she has to comment on it "oh it's not cold in here, the temp is only (whatever)." As if she's passive-aggressively trying to start a fight. Now if this were anyone else, I probably wouldn't get riled up, I'd probably make a joke of it and not obsess, however with this one person I just want to yell at her to shut up. I'm sick of her constant comments. Why does she get to me so easily? Does anyone else experience things like this- that there are people in this world that for whatever reason you just can't tune them out? What advice is there to get over it? I just want to do my job and not obsess about what stupid comment my boss may have for me next. I'm always walking on eggshells.
