Yeah exactly, I agree. If I was closer to her age and especially if we weren't in a work environment, I would definitely call her out on it politely. I've done it before politely to others my age back in college a couple of times so I know I can do it. It is just the fact that we are at work that prevents me from doing it. People have lost their jobs from appearing to have conflicts with coworkers so that's why I am keeping it silent. One day I won't be at that job anymore so hopefully I can just stick it out until then. I know it can happen at any workplace, but I feel like the place I'm at could be a bit better. Could be a lot worse for sure, but I'm sure it could be better as well. I hope she gets called out on as well, she needs it. In fact, some of the things I've heard her say about the job and just her gossiping in general are grounds for termination so it is possible she could see herself face to face with HR one day if her behavior continues. Best I can do is stay clear and only talk to her if she initiates the conversation.
