No non-compete, unfortunately. However, that is something that is taken care of with new employees now. Lessons learned.
Said person is a gossip whore. But her gossip is not based in truth, and is malicious. But she is SLICK. She is one of those who doesn't have to think about lying, it just rolls right out of her mouth as though it was the truth. And I think that makes people believe her, at least until she screws them over. And that is beginning to happen. It's great when people call us asking for her and we say no one by that name works here and we can proceed with their business needs!!
Ok so in the case of her gossiping - how do you make inroads with someone who thinks horrible things about you even if they are not based in truth? I try to be a nice, decent person. I have taken the stance that clients don't need to hear how much I despise this person, but perhaps they do need to know. I just don't want it to sound like sour grapes, as if I'm just whining that what she did wasn't fair. And discussing it always makes me feel that way.
I know in time things will work out. I am sure of it. It's just the now time that is so frustrating and difficult to deal with.
Thanks for listening everyone.
