the evil within...

I have a sneaky suspicion that one of my co-workers has gone behind my back to complain.  She has tried to manipulate me to ensure she gets easier workloads, but that is not happening.  so her next move is to complain to those above me.

I am one of those straight forward people where if you have a problem with me tell me and we will discuss it.  In turn, if you do something wrong i will go to you first and basically "have your back".  This whole going behind my back does not sit well with me..

It is just cowardly to go behind another's back and something I have never done.  I always attempt to project a professional attitude and treat everyone with respect until you give me a reason to act differently.  i hope I am wrong about this individual but my gut tells me otherwise.  Either way I should find out soon and will take the appropriate steps to address this individual.

The thing is that I have worked/managed this type of individual before and if you let them they will work you.  However, if their attempts fail they go to blaming and complaining.  In the past i have had little problems correcting their behavior or separating them from the organization but that all depends on the support and backbone of those above you.  this may be my first exposure to that sort of situation in the military setting.

Oh well, I am trying not to let this ruin my day off..
