    Font - Constantly try and make my job harder? I'll make yours take even longer. M OC I (28 f) work in insurance billing for a few big medical facilities in my area and one of my daily tasks is to save and download remits from program daily. I've been at this company for a little over 3 years now and I know how to do my job and I do it pretty well. There is this woman, we shall call her Jane.

    Font - wasting time, playing on my phone and just overall anything she could come up with to make me look bad. She's yelled at me for turning the lights off on her(which I really didn't know she was in the office because she always runs out 1st at go time) I apologized to her, and she just kept trying to go off and brought it into the parking lot. I just ignored her and kept walking but that turned into a meeting with the office manager, my direct supervisor, Jane the other employee and myself.

    Font - and I asked my direct supervisor who was training me after she told me how to do something. And come to find out, THATS WHY SHE DOESNT LIKE ME. I didn't go out of my way to get her in trouble or anything. I just was confused so I asked a question. I did apologize to her in the meeting but she just ignored me. Fast forward a week and I'm sitting at my desk and she comes up to me to say that she accepted my apology. Then she starts printing out bible verses and scriptures to put on her cork

    Font - I think I just need to provide a bit of context. Now on to the malicious compliance- So I save and download remits for a few different clients every morning. Mondays are my busiest days for this because I have to pull them from different sites and a program that send them to us electronically. Jane does billing for one of the same client I pull remits for. She needs the remits to make deposits and what not. It usually takes me anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 hours to complete this for all the cl

    Font - Apparently Jane has complained that I keep messing them up when I save and download them. I know I'm not. I triple check myself. I received an email last week stating that Jane was complaining again so I decided Monday would be the day that I did things a bit differently. I came in and instead of doing Janes client first I did the other 4 and then I took my time with Janes because I had to make sure every letter and number was 1000% correct because she needs them to be. I didn't want her

    Font - She was waiting for all the remits for a deposit so instead of the deposit getting done at 8:30 it just didn't get done until the next day. :) I've been doing hers last, since Monday and idk if anything will be said about me taking longer but I have to do as I'm told and make sure it's correct, right? Lmao

Long story short I basically told her I didn't understand where all the animosity was coming from." Did you bring up her constant lying to get you in trouble? From what you wrote above, she admitted 'hostility' which would be an admission of her making a hostile workplace for you. That was the time to air everything out.
