Please help...we do not know what to do with our 60-yr-old company vice president's 22-yr-old girlfriend who works in the same company.
Long story short, and we don't really know what her status in the company is, she comes and goes anytime she wants, reports to work only to shop online, do her nails, text, etc., is hated by everyone because of her obnoxious, arrogant, prima donna personality. Seriously, nobody talks to her.
But she is the girlfriend of the 2nd in command. Or everybody says mistress even, can't confirm. She is some sort of an "untouchable", meaning, nobody can fire her even if she's not bringing in sales, she has no talent and everybody knows it. Like literally, a slap to our hard-working-scared-every-minute-of-getting-fired-if-not-velcroed-on-our-chairs kinda faces.
So anyways...i recently confronted her, in a nice way of course knowing her "status", that the smell of her nail polish gives me allergies and that I had to open the door and put on the electric fan to get rid of the smell. And now she's throwing tantrums, bitchy-er than ever and would not say Hi back. So now I'm afraid that I'm gonna get fired because of stories she might fabricate against me to her boyfriend. She affects my job because it's a creative environment and I can't concentrate with her everyday behavior.
So, should I just continue shutting up? If they fire me for the above reason, would that be legal? Please helppppp!
