Passive aggressive coworkers

does anybody work with anybody who is so passive agressive towards you that it almost makes you cry??
i'm a speech therapist at a school and i work with one teacher who almost makes me cry with the way she acts towards me. she asked me to help her kids with their social studies vocab and left their social studies book in my mailbox with a note saying " chapter 4- 30 pages and 50 vocab words... lucky you".... and the just now she made a comment that i was late getting one of the kids and smiling said "yeah... i know.. well, it was already 10 minutes into his session when i saw you so i knew it was gonna be difficult for you to finish everything" WHAT!?! i have a watch- i know what time it was... and it wasn't that late!
just soo annoying! so glad its only a 3 day week for me!

Yes- I am a teacher too, and there is a woman who comes into my classroom to teach and acts like she owns the place- moves my things around (usually puts them on the floor), takes other teachers bulletin board space, makes comments about me to my students- then acts all innocent and attributes her behavior to not wanting to get in trouble with administration.

Re: Passive aggressive coworkers

my advice....dont feed into her. Play stupid when she is sarcastic. These people mainly continue when they have your attention. Dont give it to her. Shes not worth your time.
