Hi Chaitra! It is really sad that some are your colleagues are jealour of you.. You are such a cordial and friendly person, therefore, it is hard to fathom, how could others be jealous of you. I work in such an organisation where there is no professional rivalry, therefore, I do not face such situations.. Please do not feel distracted by their antics and you may please continue to concentrate on your project. All the best to you. Have a nice evening! Deepak

every company would have this one. and this always happens when you are moving up and others are still at the same level. this may stay for a while when you are newly promoted or appriciated but if you keep continuing the same they become accustomed and have no option to accept you the way you are going. all you need to do is to keep your self motivated enough to get the job given to you goes right or atleast it does not fall. in a professional environment you cannot ask someone why is that person jealous abt what you are getting they may feel embarassed and also go against you even if they are not thinking of doing any harm...so the best option to perform well on what you have been assigned. over a period of time people would start accepting and respecting you the way you are as they do to thier bosses right now. For time being it is thier regret that comes up to you as jealously since they could not achieve what they wanted.

I am not a professional woman ...but i can understand your situation...only thing you can do, that if they are changeable ...then just try to be good to them...and tell them why you are superior to them in work..and what they can do to improve theirs...and if they are stubborn ...then just try to neglect...as the more you pay attention to them, the more you will be disturbed and the more you will lose your peace, just keep away from them....and keep doing your good work..after all, your boss pays you not they

Hi Chaitra, I am sadto know that you are again in trouble. I know it is difficult to cope with the jealousy people especially by the colleagues. Luckily in my office there is no such problem till and all are doing their own works. It is true that all works are related but everybody has their own contribution and I think it may be reason for ‘no jealousy’ attitude. Hope you will ready to manage the situation at the earliest.

I also sense this in my work with my collegues. Other also are good to me. Its normal in the group that we cannot pleased everyone. I just listen their comments and everything and no comment to avoid gossips and other things. Just go with what the wind blows and take it. There's no problem of being quiet of what they say and so. I just work what I can and don't get jealous to anybody. I know I can do it that's why they give it to me the promotion.Thank God and trying the best to be friend to all.

Professional jealousy .... Its a common thing. People feel jealousy when they feel that some other have cross them behind. I ignore others feelings and do my duty . Because I think the best way to deal with the jealousy, ignorance is the best policy.

Hi friend thanks for sharing.. Yes ignorance is the best policy I agree with you but when the person is a friend of you and supports you on other things then how do you feel the same person iss jealous upon you?

Jealousy from friend ? Very complected to deal with. Jealousy is because of the person's disability. They are not tolerant. Friend and jealousy? frankly speaking if I find that someone is jealous with me then I feel proudly. They find something in me what have not belongs to them. So I normally ignore that and try to make realize them that I am not aware that they are jealous with me.

i am not sure if this girl is jealous with my position. i guess not because hers is much higher than mine. but she is the one that keeps on attacking me, everytime there is an issue about our work. maybe she is just the type of lack of attention?

Hi chaitra Since I am a housewife, I do not have any professionally jealous people arouond and so I think I am free in that way. But before my marriage, I was a working lady and that time also I did not have any one who was jealous.
