Hey Everyone,
I need some advice because I think a coworker is taking advantage of me.
For example, Last Thursday, we were eating lunch. Instantly, I started vomiting in her classroom violently. Sorry, to be so graphic, but this continued for 10 minutes. During this entire time, she just continued typing and preparing her computer for the students who were about to come. Without one time asking me if I needed help ! I was like , "Hello, I am very sick. Can you get me some water or napkins. She just replied, "I know!" and that was it and acted distant.
The very next day, I feel unconscious 2x in the classroom upon awaking I sent one student to her room to call for help another to go grab security. She walked in the room, saw me slumped over, said that she was going to call Anna and left. She never once came back to check on me. I was indeed very ill and was rushed immediately to the hospital. My students were very traumatized and upset about the situation. It took security a very long time to get there and the principals. She did tell me that she was going to check up on me this weekend but I knew that it was a lie. I was correct! She never called. this is a person who I talk to , eat lunch with every single day, share students with etc.
The thing is, I stay with her 2x a week for an additional 8 hours after school because she teaches night students and I she does not want to be left alone. When her grandchild was hospitalized, I went immediately to support her right after work. She will do a favor for me, but it is with an attitude. I have communicated my concerns and she just states that I am misreading her intentions. Should I stop having lunch with her? Should I stop staying afterschool with her? How can I have better boundaries with her as well and teach her how to treat others? Or am I simply over exaggerating?
