And these people are vicious! They act like they're friends, and I can't believe what they say behind each other's backs! When I've talked to them they have backstabbed me also. So I just stay away from their group, and I've noticed that their group is really dwindling down and noone wants anything to do with them anymore. They wait until they get off work and now the few of them will stand around outside and get rowdy together. So what would you do when having to pass this group. Just pass by and say nothing or if they say hello just be decent and say hello back or what? I can't stand these people, I wish they would move.

I've had this happen. We have one woman in particular who will gossip with everyone and then twist things around to make others look bad as she goes from one person to the next. We found out the hard way. Now when we see her out we'll be polite if she says something to us but other wise we just keep clear. If she waves or says hi we do back but that's it. If she tries to engage us in conversation we say we have to get home, waiting for a call or something. We find it better then dealing with her.

Thanks, I will try to be polite and just be in a hurry if I ever see them. Right now I feel like leaving some bubble gum on their sidewalk, LOL.
