I'm sure everyone has encountered an "unpleasant person" in their lives. You know the kind, generally of a sour disposition who will not respond to pleasantries or attempts to befriend them in any way. Pretending to be a friend or concerned person until you do something with which she doesn't agree.
I work with such an individual and her demeanor is rude and offensive to almost everyone. She converses with her friends on the phone for hours every day. She conducts her own personal business (Ceramics/Art/Dog Bowls) on company time (creating brochures, mailing them on company postage, web pages, shipping packages with company supplies and on company dollar). What is so frustrating, is that she gets away with it and has for years! The morale of those around her plummets whenever she is in and becomes a celebration when she's not!
Furthermore, she doesn't believe in God and when someone mentions anything related to Christian she says, "Please stop-I find your conversation offensive."
Lord, please help me to love and pray for this individual. Please grant me patience, forgiveness, and strength. Keep me from gossip or retaliation. Allow me to be a witness for your glory!

You're right on sis. Keep her in prayer, and yourself - for strength against the temptation to gossip or bring her down.
The supervisors allow her work habits to continue?
