I hate Stupid Know-it-alls

There's a lady who I see every time I work graveyard, and I loathe it.

She's in her 50's, thinks she looks 30, she's hideous inside and out. She is convinced she knows better than everyone, and the sad thing is, she's fucking stupid. She calls me Tom even though my name tag says John. She talks like everyone around her is a moron and that only she can save people from their stupidity. Irony much?

Today I turned the music in the lobby way up, and she still shouted over it to not only call me Tom again, but to talk about how stupid everyone over where she works is. She went on about how she knows about picking the right fruit, and how all her friends let her pick the fruit because she's always picking the best. Then she ranted and raved and luckily the music was loud enough to drown out most of the rest, and I nodded my head occasionally and ignored her for the most part.

I really can't stand her, but their donuts are delivered here every day, so we have to open up and let her in. It's fucked up.

She also talks so loud, even without music going, she has woken up guests. I've asked her to call me John, to keep the volume down, and various other useless gestures. So not only is she fucking stupid and thinks she's smart, she talks incredibly loud so you can hear her stupidity.


:punch:
 
I hate know-it-all's too. They always are the stupidest people to walk the face of the earth. Maybe you can tell her she is being a nuisance and to calm down or you will have to report her to the place she works.

I hope it gets better soon. If she is annoying you she is probably annoying others.
 
No no, kick her in the shin!

CL is right though, maybe she is very lonely and just needs someone to talk to, and boosts her ego by saying she's good at everything because no one else will do it for her.
 
Know-it-all's are hard to deal with. Recently I was talking to one of my enemies acctually. She use to be an old friend and online she got ahold of my email and told me she was someone else and screwed me over on alot of things. Whatever.

Anyways, she's one of those "I know it all and I don't care what anyone else says". But today she got frustrated because no one would listen to her so she just kinda' left the bulding I was in. I walked out and started talking to her even though she is a complete asshole to me and everyone else. I asked her if she was ok-I listened to what she had to say-and then i told her that I had to go back in the building.

She came back in and she wasn't a loud mouth-obnoxious-know it all anymore. *Shrugs* She was good after I listened to her- :)

My point-Acctually listen to the lady. Maybe she'll shut up. :confused:
 
When she walks into the building do you make eyecontact with her? If so, that's your problem. Before she sees you put on some headphones(music does not need to be playing) and look down at the crossword puzzle or something. Works for me.
 
JLXC, there is a very easy way to deal with people like this. When she delivers the dounuts, keep it to buisness, do whatever you need to, take the dounuts, take them to the back, etc. If she is still there, what you do is you ask her how she is, and you walk toward the door, she will follow. When she is done telling you how she is (don't let her change the topic) tell her "That's great, now have a nice day," and smile, and open the door for her politely. Hopefully she will get the message with that.

My brother and me know a kid that is just like that, the only problem is that he really IS smart, but he is so stuck up that no one can stand him. If you ever get in an arguement with her, all you have to do is raise you hands and say, "You're absolutely right, I am absolutely wrong, you have absolutely changed my mind." She will most likely know that she has not convinced you, but there really isn't much else she can do, other than walk away.
