  • I have no idea, since I'm not there. I do believe that it's quite unlikely that she has any nefarious intentions. Obviously I could be wrong! You're there so you are able to make more of an informed perspective than any one of us here.

    Maybe she's just shy? That's how I often am. I just have a straight face, so people don't know what I'm thinking or feeling usually. Yeah, that tends to lead to a lot of misunderstandings, unfortunately.

    Personally I always prefer a direct approach. Just do it nicely and she probably won't do anything to you. Probably...

    Or talk to your coworkers. If they're nice and you're nice to them, then they probably won't pull one over on you either. But again, you're the one there so you have information that I don't. Any person can only provide so much perspective without all of the information on hand, after all.
