I’ve seen several posts of people asking for advice on situations like this with so many answers suggesting OP to fight back, document and contact the union, but this seems too much work for an unconvincing result, because there is no way a manager is going to fire an employee or a clique for a “he claims she claims” situation.
Manager, employer, even the union, will listen to you, play theatrics and change nothing hoping you forget.
Walking away, while making you feel like a loser, seems to be the sane choice long term. Cliques are gonna clique.
Maybe you can think of a better way?
I think it means Mean Girls who make fun of your outfit?
I don’t get why people get so bothered by shit like this. Just ignore them do ur work and fuck off when ur no longer getting paid. What are they gonna do sabotage your work? Just send em a polite email with something like:
dear such and such
I require abc to complete my designated scope of work as required. However due to xyz it is not feasible to so as required could you please remedy this issue.
Regards some asshole.
If its not effecting your work who gives a single fuck. Obviously u got the whole office politics game u need to play to get promotions pay rises etc. But a lot of large companied will use hard metrics to determine such things and u can game those systems.
A little more insight about the clique dynamic and ops relationship would be helpful here.
