Death threats...?

Question

One of my work colleagues threatened to kill me the other day. My crime? She asked me to help her with something so I DID. Apparently I didn't do it EXACTLY the way she wanted so she then started saying she was going to kill me. I was really hurt by her reaction, but it seems she behaves this way to a lot of people because she seems to have a real attitude problem (considers herself to always be right, doesn't give any consideration to the feelings of others etc). I haven't said anything to our manager about it. Do you think I should say something or just let it pass as the ramblings of a seriously immature little *****?

Answer 1

And just WHY have you and the others she treats like this NOT spoken to management?  It sounds as if you ENJOY her little rampages.  I know, I know - I had a girlfriend who rampaged like that - and God, when she rampaged she was dynamite in bed! I guess she turns you on, huh?  

Or maybe you need to get your head out of your behind and report her sorry behavior!

Answer 2

threatned the ***** back dont let ppl talk to like that

Answer 3

if she is doing this all the time then i would defo go to the boss, her behaviour should not be allowed to continue in a work place, people have been sacked for less.

you are there to do your job then go home you are not there to be treated like that.

Answer 4

She's probably one of those people that if she doesn't get her way she resorts to threats and emotional disturbances. If she does it again you can report her or ask her, "Have you killed anyone before? Do you know what it's like and could you really do it? Or are you just talking out of your @ss? Other than that stop raving like a scared stockbroker."

This is what I said and my co-worker never threatened me again.

Answer 5

report it!

the reason they are like this is beacuse no1 reports it!

ask to speak to your line manager (or who ever you would report too) and just explain whats happened.. they will probs only pull them into the office and express their concerns as sum1 has spoken to them about their behaviour.

dont panic it should all be confidential!

Answer 6

I doubt she was serious, as you said, she just has an attitude problem. Stay away from her.

Answer 7

Stab her in the throat when no-one is looking.

Or you could take a leaf out of the British Police, who've developed a new tactic recently - sit a person down, shoot them in the face seven times (no more, no less), ask questions later.

None of them have been prosecuted yet, so I think it's good to go.

Answer 8

she wants to suck your soldier...so laugh!

Answer 9

You should remind her of the age old saying.  "If you want something doing properly......then do it yourself."  She sounds like a spoilt child and maybe should be told so.

Answer 10

Oh she was probably saying that because she was irritated at you, and that might just be something she likes to say. I would leave it alone, unless she starts following you after work and looks like she is really going to do it.

Answer 11

Slap that Be-otch!

Answer 12

Spit in her tea? No don't do that really-

just ignore her and don't even acknowledge her existence- and if she has the cheek to ask you for a hand again- tell her you'd rather die than help her.

Don't let her arrogance and bad manners make YOU feel bad- you did nothing wrong- so let it ride.

Answer 13

They are nothing more than idol threats and ramblings of an uneducted immature person. Ignore her and avoid her . in the future let her solve her own problems.

If the manager is worth his salt he will remove her soon enough. Let it go focus on your job and ignore the silly, whining ramblings of an uneducted, immature worker, trust me there are millions of them out there.

Answer 14

That is a crime and should be reported.  It is not legal to threaten someones life.  She needs to take out her anger in other ways.  Sooner or later, she will meet her match, and it likely won't be pretty.

Answer 15

well, she's the typical, permanently-PMSING, bitchy, s*x-deprived, no-lifer employee that every single one of us has to face at some point of time in our life;

remember, these people are really just insecure and have no other way of controlling their insecurity, except by venting out their pent-up frustration and misery on the first person who does something minutely wrong and very insignificant; these kinda people are searching for people to vent on frequently; your manager, I suspect won't be much of a help;

You just have to avoid being near her and avoid as much interaction with her as possible; stay out of her "eye-zone" & she'll find someone else to bug soon enough; Otherwise, you and your other colleagues could always gang up together and completely ignore her until she learns her lesson; just give her the cold shoulder; good luck, & don't be hurt, because it's not worth it; (:

Answer 16

You already tasked a question about this didn't you?

I think we should all silence you for the next three months!

Answer 17

Is she the same one who wouldn't return things after she borrowed them? Well if it is she REALLY needs some councelling! She's SICK!

It stinks doesn't it, being atuck with stupid selfish and nerve wrecking collegues?!!!!

From what you've told us, the best thing to do is to avoid any sort of communication with her. She seems to mistreat people at the slightest interaction. She's NOBODY to talk to you like that and if I were you I'd tell your boss. He ought to know! But I'd only report to him the things she did to you. Let others report themselves what she did to them so it won't look like you're the only one who has a problem with her.

Oh and BTW she really is a really immature spoiled bratty *****. AND THAT'S AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!

Answer 18

Its a young girl, dont worry they grow out of this when they hit late twenties.

Answer 19

Leave it, if she does it again, then tell your manager. Bit random, what was the favour?

Answer 20

if you do tell your boss you could be adding fuel to the fire personally id let it pass then if he/she does it again i would tell my boss then
