My coworker (mid 30’s f) has been bragging about my little mistakes And extra work. I (21 M) work in the medical field at an urgent care. We get 6hrs of work which isn’t enough for me to scan new patient forms into their chart, btw we don’t get paid for overtime. This urgent care is really new and we get a few patients a day and it’s only one medical Assistant and one provider but it’s starting to get really busy to the point we need 2 MAs. I’ve ask the lady after I had clocked out, lets call her maria, to help me scan some paperwork into the patient charts, it was only for two patients. I asked maria as kindly as possible for help, she just texted me saying she’s tired of me leaving her work to do. I’ve asked for help 3 times. 2 days ago I asked if she could call quest to pick up some specim samples the clinic was empty and there was no patients later that day.
Maria said yes. Today i followed up with quest though we keep records of confirmation numbers to track the results. I didn’t see one today so I went to check the mailbox and the specimen is still there. Btw any lab offices won’t accept them passing the 48 hours (two days).
This makes the UC look bad. Like I said I asked maria to send it out and she agreed too. Whenever she asks for my help I don’t argue or say no, I willingly help her out with scanning and shreading.
Maria has bragged about my small mistakes to the manager and that makes me look bad.I reported her a month ago regarding her attitude and her mistakes just like she did with me. I’ve told her and showed her proof she says, "that wasn’t me" I shrug it off and just reply with an okay And I don’t argue or fight her. After that report maria said in front of every patient in the waiting room, "manager wants to speak with us because you brag about me and my mistakes". btw that was my first time I set my foot down on her. I haven’t done anything to that woman that would offend her when we first started working there.
Tbh Idk. I understand we all make mistakes but she micromanages everything, like she’s trying to be a manager or a higher up but we both have the same title.
I’ve never given her attitude and I mostly focus on my job and mind my own business but she’s some kind of obsessed with my work. She’s not the same with the other MAs.
