Dramatic beings can't resist being dramatic wherever they go, but as professionals, we owe it to our coworkers to dial down the spice we bring into the office space. This college student decided to teach a former friend a lesson when she childishly decided to play 'high school mean girl' in their university organisation. For a group that actually wanted to get work done on campus, they couldn't have a weak link in their admin, could they? 

So this clever collegiate decided to school her ex-bestie in professional courtesy… By kicking her out of their organization entirely.

    So, plot twist? She kept pretending I was invisible, and I was honestly fine with it. But the real issue was that we were both part of the same university organization and I was in a leadership role. Jenny wasn't just avoiding me

    personally; she was avoiding everything related to the org. Zero communication. No updates. No contribution. Just a walking glitch in the workflow. I tried to be civil about it, but she made

    it impossible. She didn't even have the basic courtesy to separate personal from professional. And I'm sorry, but if you can't even respond about organization responsibilities, you're not just being cold, you're being irresponsible.

    So... I removed her from the org. And yeah, I had the authority to do that. Was it harsh? Maybe. But it wasn't just a personal move, the whole team was fed up. We all agreed she was dragging the group down.

    Now here's the fun part: her friend Sally and one of her other backup dancers have been giving me side- eyes and the classic "how dare you" glares on campus ever since. It genuinely cracks me up. Like... are we 12?

    Also, since Jenny clearly wanted to act like I didn't exist, I helped her out, unfriended and removed her from all my social media. If she wants to pretend we're strangers, I'll make it official. I don't half-play.

  • Nothing screams “Petty Revenge” like a little college girl drama. Having endured those riotous collegiate years myself, I've seen my fair share of girl drama, but nothing comes close to the turn of events that went down at this university. Perhaps this bossy mean girl will think twice before airing her dirty laundry out in the workplace, especially when she's badmouthing the class president.

    No regrets. She burned the bridge and then got surprised when she couldn't cross it. And one more thing that i got to know is that she's spreading lies about how our friendship ended...like diabolical lies which honestly is so low on her side cause she needs to make lies just to make me look bad.

    Oddly-Appeased ⚫ Some people we think are friends actually add nothing good to our lives. When you find someone like that it's time to move on. I think you are handling this quite well. Definitely should always separate personal from professional. In the end she is hurting herself more than she is doing to anyone else.

    Uglym8s You're handling this situation very well and with a maturity that I do not see in people in their 30's. Good for you. Unfortunately, Jenny sounds like the type of person who needs to bring others down to make herself look

    good. Says a lot about her. It won't be long before she turns on Sally. You don't sound like you are but don't let her lies bother you. If one chooses to tell lies, they better have a good memory because lies always catch the person out in the end.

    asamue16. good for you to remove her from everything. Let her spread lies, if people come to you to find out the truth tell them what actually happened. If they don't come to you, this lets you know that they aren't your friend because they believe a liar.
