ZaireinHD: I just cant imagne EVER treating someone like she did. Even on my worst days, I would NEVER do half the stuff she did to the extremes that she did them. And I don't think that I'm a wonderful person, by any stretch of the imagination. I do see your side, believe me I do. And you may be right. But not every employer has to deal with personal drama, especially to that woman's extent. She would possibly be a destuctive entity in a workplace, bringing co-workers down with her ship. There were instant negative vibes between applicant, HR & Interviwer-the right action was taken. I work with a TERROR of a woman in my father's business & she makes many of our lives a living hell. She has intergrated herself there to make it damn near impossible to fire her, and it is horrible place to work. You don't want that for a workplace environment.

oh - I see your point shopaholic814my comment wasn't intentional to be mean - just thinking applicant could have been having a tough time I agree the OP handled the situation correctly I have not (fortunately) had the experience to work with a terror co-worker. and if this applicant is just a horror at her current job and she is looking for another place to terrorize. maybe maybe her current job - she has a boss that is the terror making her do demeaning things like go fetch boss coffee in the morning then while she is out call her to bitch and complain where is she and she is late for another surprise meeting just called. creating her to be in a bad mood for the millionth time, and this day she is reacting out cutting people off, stealing parking spaces giving mean looks.

Thanks for understanding shopaholic814
I agree with you - I wouldn't act out as this lady did - even on a bad day.

I just had someone tell me that the local political candidate I supported in every possible way including a 4-figure donation, who has said some really, really, REALLY bad things about me to my face and behind my back, "just says that because he likes you b/c we always treat those we care about the worst". Yes, that's how abusers justify their abuse.

@donethat: that is horrible! We are not in elementary school, pulling the pig-tails of the little girls that the boys have crushes on. Why on earth would a man say something bad to someone who is supporting his political campaign both monetarily & emotionally? And what did you do/say to this man when he treated you so poorly? I hope you gave him shit for it. There is no cause for that kind of treatment if you did nothing to deserve it. I hope you stopped supporting him.
