I am waiting for HR to get back to me about the conclusion of their investigation.I am on pins and needles, waiting to hear something. Another more senior colleague stepped on my toes yesterday, dismissing my authority by seeking a second opinion from our agency partner, even after I gave a conclusion, with my opinion. It seriously rubbed me the wrong way, and I felt stepped on. I think she's also friends with my boss.

I suspect this more senior colleague is highly toxic. She wrote a poor peer review of me last year by stating I do not always follow process, creating tension with others and not allowing relationship building. She made it seem like I had done this repeatedly, when it officially only happened ONCE in an entire year! What a biatch. I don't like her, and I don't like my boss. I am starting to not like my company, though I have been enjoying the stability it's provided since my career was unstable for the last 7 years.
