The best thing you can do is treat her respectfully. Say hello when you pass and be courteous when you talk, but putting up the professional barrier to any kind of personal relationship likely is your best strategy.

Your coworkers also see these traits. They will see you treating this person with respect, but also not participating in her drama. That’s the mentality you should have to forming a winning workplace presence. People will see you treat her kindly, but also do not participate in the drama.

Everyone respects that person

Is there another app on your phone that can manage your calendar?

If desktop is ok the changes aren’t syncing back to Google, so it’s got to be something on your phone.

If it helps, those guys treat other guys the same way.

Also if it helps there are women who treat other people this way too.

This seems akin to racism to me. My favorite quote about this is from President Lyndon B. Johnson. “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”

My dad isn’t this kind of guy, but he is an old white guy that watches Fox News. And it’s the same thing with them. He has bought any number of supplements advertised on Fox News, and believes wholeheartedly that one day the world will finally understand the deep wisdom he believes in.

I don’t believe you can categorize people as a simple either or. “You’re a red piller or not.” “You’re a conservative or a liberal.” But I do think you can apply a personality type to people. And it sounds like you sussed out a guy who really needs to feel superior to other people. I fucking hate those kind of people. So good for you, there are a lot of people who may have never figured it out, or weren’t socially aware enough to see it. It sucks this turned out to be what it was, but celebrate the fact you’re a strong enough person not to put up with it

Don’t let the media portrayal of the current times affect you reality. Most of the stuff going on now has been going on forever and will continue to go on forever.

Take the faithless electors. There have been a total of 58 elections in which 165 electors have not cast their vote as the state prescribed. This first Wikipedia quotes was in 1835

My entire comment was about how you missed the point.

I then came up with a ridiculous comparison, to illustrate how ridiculous your comparison was.

So let me reiterate my point. Is it worse to have a draft or is it worse for civilians to be murdered by the, potentially, millions. Including things like elderly and infirm being tortured before they’re executed, and children being shipped hundreds or thousands of miles from their home to be the toy of an oligarch.

Ukraine cannot get enough troops with volunteers. If you were leading the country, what would you do? Order a draft or let an invading military run free through your country, raping, pillaging, and murdering.

You missed the point by so much it’s amazing your neighbor didn’t lose an eye.

Civilians will be raped and murdered by an invading military. Towns will be bombed and burned. Children taken from their families and sent thousands of miles away to be enslaved in factories or worse, a toy for an oligarch.

And ALL of that you’re fine with. Hand wave all of that away, because, by your own argument, a draft is more morally outrageous than all of that. Rape, murder, child sex slaves, ALL of that is worse than forcing people into the military.

If we’re really going to make an outrageous argument then here’s one for you. If society really has no right to an individual, then taxes and welfare should also be abolished. Who cares if the poor or mentally incapable starve? That’s not your problem. Individuals have no responsibility to society. They should just move if they can’t succeed.
