Hello. I was wondering if someone could help because I am feeling intense fear and high anxiety and it's work related.I feel one of my co workers is trying to sabotage me.
Recently I received anual work evaluation.
My co worker said some things about me that are far fetch and untrue.
Now my main supervisor wants me to give this gentleman a list of my daily work accomplishments.
All I can say is I truly do not trust this co worker and I feel he has made my job worst.
Right now I have major fear and anxiety where I feel fatality.

I understand your concerns, believe me. I have been in that same situation a few times throughout my career. I won’t lie to you. It’s not a good sign that your supervisor asked your coworker to get a list of your job responsibilities. I think that’s a clear indication that it might be a good idea for you to start searching for a new job. Unfortunately, there are many toxic people in the workplace who will stab you in your back just to climb up the ladder of success. It sounds like you have one in your office. It’s not your imagination and your concerns are well-founded. Be proactive and polish your résumé and start looking around , good luck. You got this.
You know this is the first time I came to work crying. I used to love coming here. Now I do not know. But last night a made a mistake with three documents so I am looking more bad. My luck.
try your very best to be strong and don’t let them see that things are bothering you. I know it’s hard because I’ve been where you are right now. However, be the better person. And I’m telling you, be proactive and start looking around for another job. I’m not sure what field you are in but i’m sure you’ll be able to find something. I am 70 years old and have worked since I got out of college so that’s a very long career. However, I became unemployed from my last job, which I was at for two years. I was devastated because I worked 60 hours a week and did so much for the company and the owner personally . Bosses and coworkers often suck. You just have to take it in stride, pick yourself up and start over.
Back in April I started work at a care home and got bullied by colleagues there and one Friday I was working 8/8 and a woman who works nights had started work at 6.30pm not getting paid until 8pm just to throw her weight around and a buzzer had gone off and she had shouted at me for not having answered quickly enough and I attended to the resident but I was really cross!
Then I went back downstairs and in the kitchen she tried to put me down and I cut her off and told her I wasn't putting up with her crud, got my things and went home early and left them to it and on my way out I kicked their back gate in temper!
There had been other incidents before that one like getting told off for not having labelled a pasta salad I made for myself that I had put in their fridge, told off over the breakfast trays which was ridiculous and that Friday it had all come to a head when that happened!
Thankfully because I had only been there a couple of weeks I could leave immediately and there wasn't a thing they could do about it as after a month at a place you have to give a weeks notice if you want to finish!
I am feeling better about things now but at the time I was extremely disappointed as one minute I had a job and the next I didn't!
If you're supervisor is being easily swayed by another's employee's problem with you, and that employee never tried to discuss their concerns with you directly, there may be something wrong with, a) the workplace, and/or, b) the management (ie- your supervisor). Are there union reps or other special/senior staff you can speak to for guidance?
This is stressful, obviously. Wishing you luck, but also do you have a workplace buddy who you can confide in? This community is here, yes; but we're no substitute for a friend who's right there with you in real time. Take it easy.
At the care home I walked out of recently I had complained about the attitude of colleagues towards me and had been fobbed off with excuses and that it was happening all because it was Monday which was ridiculous!
It's not being lazy at all. Seeking new employment is stressful, time consuming and a job in itself. Just start sending out resumes for jobs you think you'd like. In the meantime, since you do have a union rep, by all means...speak with them and protect your rights. That person will help you advocate for yourself. Good Luck! You can do it.
I'm back on the horse looking for other jobs and it can get depressing and stressful but good news as I have some interviews coming up one for next Wednesday at 10.30am and one a week next Tuesday which will be an all dayer.
That happened to me as well at that care home when those colleagues that bullied me had it out for me out of jealousy and I stood up to them and walked out and kicked the back gate in bad temper!
The lesson of the care home is that next time I get offered a job and they threaten to take it away if I don't say yes right away I will tell them no thank you and let it go!
Yes should that come again when they threaten to take offers away just because I ask for time to think it over then I will say thanks for the offer but no thanks and let the offer go!
It was upsetting though one minute having a job and the next I hadn't and another good thing is I don't have to do those ridiculous 12 hour shifts or get manipulated to go into work on a day off or to change my social life to fit someone else in!
The care home wasn't a waste as I learned my lesson from it not to accept jobs in desperation!
