When someone at work decides they don't like you for no reason, there usually is not much you can do to change their mind. You can try to reason with them or find common ground, but nine times out of ten, these are unreasonable people with a high school mentality. If they meet you with pettiness, sometimes the only thing you can do in return is to be petty right back.
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/MercerAcolyte42, who discovered her coworkers' complete distaste for her personality after their office lunch. Essentially, even during minor interactions like small talk, these two coworkers have a habit of critiquing every little thing the Redditor says. This ranges from work-related discussions to conversations about favorite movies and shows. It doesn't matter what the original poster's opinion is, chances are these two coworkers will find a reason to interrupt her mid-sentence, reject her position on something, or simply ignore everything she's saying.
As we said, when this kind of dynamic forms, there isn't much you can do to change the minds of the people who have decided they despise you for literally no good reason. So how did this Redditor combat this? Well, she figured out what their favorite snacks were and made sure that they slowly but surely started to disappear from the office kitchenette.
