I don’t usually get bad vibes about someone. There was really only one other person who I was truly terrified was going to do something to me. She was threatening me. So yeah I kind of should have felt that way. She ended up in jail for reasons not related to me. I’m hoping she’s forgotten about me.

But this other person, is a coworker. I don’t know maybe I’m just being paranoid. But this feeling is so intense. People make me anxious, but never this kind of anxious.

Ive been bullied before, but I knew those people were just jerks. This current situation just doesn’t seem/feel the same.

I just have a bad feeling that’s not a normal emotion for me.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Discuss this with your supervisors if this person is a coworker.

Has this person done anything to you or behaved in any sort of threatening or hurtful way to you? I wouldn't dismiss the feeling, if not (it could be your intuition). Maybe just keep your distance and see how things unfold if they aren't bothering you. But yeah if they are bothering you, I'd tell management.

Follow your intuition and avoid the person as much as you can.

I'm sorry, but this is awful advice unless the OP has solid, concrete proof to bring to the table. For example, if this coworker is engaging in harassing behaviour.

If the coworker has not done anything tangible and the OP only has "bad vibes", can you imagine how silly they would sound to the supervisors if an employee came up and said "I wanted to talk about a coworker. They have done nothing wrong but I have bad vibes from them". Nothing would be done, and chances are it would affect the supervisor's opinion of you greatly.

Just avoid the coworker if possible. Don't mention anything to the higher ups unless the coworker has actually done something wrong.

Actually,

She makes fun of the way I talk, question me in a rude way when I come anywhere near her, angrily kicks things towards me, talks about “that effing Bozdickens” when she knows I can hear her, and throws things in my bin which just creates more work for me.

She obviously knows what she’s doing. After I was tired of her obviously talking about me, I asked if the store manager was in. I heard her say “she’s going to snitch on me for that.?”

So if she wasn’t doing anything, how did she know I wanted to talk to the manager about her?

I have evidence. I am not looking “foolish.”

I will gladly explain things to my manager what’s been going on. I asked for opposite hours. I am not trying to get her into trouble. I’ve beem at the job 4 months.

I find your reply to be kind of insulting.

I gave up in Highschool trying to figure out what I’ve done to people who hate me. I literally do nothing to anyone.

From your first post, I had no idea whether or not this coworker had done these things that you later described. What I was saying, is that if someone reports someone else for just having bad vibes, then it won't go anywhere. But this latest reply obviously changes my stance. If this co-worker is being rude towards you, you have every right to report her. I wish you all the best.
Thanks for this!

Hey Boz. Definitely tell your supervisor. Your coworker's behavior towards you is out of line and seems like they're creating a hostile work environment.
Thanks for this!

I overheard some of my coworkers talking about her.

They said “she’s effing insane.”

They were saying a lot of other stuff about her. So it’s best just to stay far away.

There scheduling me when she leaves. So it’s working out.

The term "bad vibes" is usually used in regard to a feeling you have about someone who has not yet done anything to fully verify that they have bad intentions, but you sort of sense they are at least capable or even intending to do something bad to others or yourself now or in the future. Sometimes you can just sense that someone is up to no good.

What you described about the person in your past and your coworker now is that there is verified bad behavior that has occurred and you are aware of the ill intent being presented through your coworkers misconduct towards you. This is more than a vibe, that person is clearly treating you poorly from what you described. I see you said there's going to be a schedule change. I'm happy for you!
