Irresponsible Gossiping

Up to now i'm still struggling to be level-headed to a certain co-employee who seems to enjoy gossiping up to the point of destroying your reputation. I think she enjoys seeing someone get hurt and be the talk of the town. I don't know her reason for doing that, especially how open she is to her faith which is very contradictory. I know many experience this predicament and I ignore this by focusing on my work, reminding myself that i am an educated person and avoiding her as much as possible...

You should keep in mind that she is probably a very insecure person and most things she is saying about others could be a reflection of herself. If she says something truely hurtful I would confront her period. Ask her what the problem is and that you would appreciate her leaving you out of her conversations because you are above her petty gossip:)

yeah, you're right, if things really get out of hand, i would really confront her and ask what really is her problem..atmosphere really gets worse when she's around..
