Looks like she’s the one who’s taking it personally. Maybe, deep down, do you think it doesn’t make a difference to you whether she likes you or not?
FU all liberals!
Tell her to go F herself and drop dead. If she can’t agree to disagree civilly, neither should you.
Lawyer up. No kidding.
That's because she is being honest. Many on that side are frothing over with hate.
Personally, I like to be liked by others and it pains me when someone doesn't (just being honest).
Libtards are always the most intolerant people in any room.
Just keep speaking truth AT her, liberals hate the truth.
An example would be "Hey, did you hear that Cher's daughter got kicked off Dancing with the Stars?"
Eventually she will make an excuse to NOT see you once a week or just outright quit.
You do not need lunatics in your life and you will feel better in the end.
Just one more reason why the Red States should separate from the Blue.
Sounds like she is the one with the problem and most likely a miserable life. Just smile and move on knowing her life sucks and yours doesn’t.
“...this is the first time I can remember someone actually saying they don’t like me once she found out my politics.”
He must not work with many leftists, then.
Stop tweaking her and start documenting your interactions with her in a small notebook.
You will need it when she files a formal complaint against you for creating a “hostile” work environment.
As we get closer to November and it becomes clear that the majority of Americans want to replace Obama, her type will become more hysterical, angry and vengeful.
All those that hung the savior’s mantle on Obama are deeply disappointed by the intransigence of reality in refusing to conform to their fantasies of how the world should work. They have a fundamental thinking disorder and they will react poorly when their construct comes crashing down.
“How should I interact with her from now on?”
Well, since you asked, I would recommend you take the high road and be civil to her whenever you see her. Don’t be artificially, overly pleasant, but simply be polite and friendly. Firstly, I think it’s generally the right thing to do (two wrongs don’t make a right). Secondly, other acquaintances, who don’t yet agree with you politically, may perceive the obvious difference between a pleasant, logical conservative such as yourself in comparison to a bitter angry liberal such as her, and it could help bring some of them around to a more positive opinion of conservatives.
I just went through this for the last 6 mohts.
Here are my lessons learned.
1. Do not converse with her unless there are witnesses.
2. Document everything with proof.
3. Do not talk bad about her (or at all) because she will have alliances that you are not aware of.
4. Don’t be tempted to do anything stupid.
5. Maintain your civility and honor, no matter what. In the end you will prevail, come out on top and the rest of your colleagues will see what a low-class inferior being she is.
God Bless!
Publish her e-mail address Hehe
Go put a “I Love Palin” bumper sticker on her car.
Seriously, I would not ‘ tweak ‘ this person any more. You are asking for trouble and a liberal co-worker will give it to you.
If you must interact with her try to have another person with you. If she claims you said something you didn’t the third person can back you up.
A liberal co-wroker will lie about you, your job performance, say anything that will ensure others hate you as much as they do. While they can not debate and win they will surely try to undermine you at work.
In my line of work many of my buyers and people I buy from are hard core liberals. I listen to everything they say and the amount of hatred and ignorance is mind boggling. But I just nod and say “ yes, I see...well, you now I am not terribly interested in politics “
If these people ever knew I was a Conservative they’d never have anything to do with me. I’d be finished.
Thanks for the advice, especially the legal and HR-related type. - ETR
Feign concern and ask if she’s feeling well... look very concerned, and keep repeating from time to time that you are worried about her because she looks ‘tired’ or ‘not well’...
You would be surprised how this can make someone run down, tired and even sick.
Look for her to file a complaint with the company’s HR department because your very existence constitutes a hostile work environment if she’s in the same building as you.
