Created the account just to clarify certain things as a coworker of ours recently took it to reddit to accuse us falsely for her broken marriage scenario, not exactly an aitah scenario. Long post alert, tried to include whatever I can.

Few of our colleagues who are active on reddit has recently shared with us the post about one of our coworkers recent post accusing us for breaking her marriage. Initially we tried to ignore thinking it as a childish rant and as we didn't want any more workplace drama. But since the concerned person's story is quite infamous here in the workplace that one of our colleagues even asked us they didn't think we were this toxic. So, this post is just to clarify any doubt for the readers and to avoid any more serious allegations further.

I (28/F) have been working with this said coworker for past 3 years. We all are contract based doctors. Although, I am not that particular coworker she accused of, but, we collectively decided to clarify things and avoid tarnishing our name further. I would be happy to answer any more queries if anybody have it.

Things were pretty cool at work initially, but soon we started noticing this particular girl, lets call her X (28/F), being little weird at work. Initially it was like, she escapes during the duty hours, which puts the extra burden on us, skipping her duty days telling she had already finished her duties as per roster which is false, getting offended for every small joke by anybody, very rudely back answering the senior colleagues, yelling to us in front of patients during consultation hours, ignoring work and doing her personal things during duty times etc. Initially we tried to ignore it, but it kept on getting worse day by day. It was like we doing the free labour for her, while she used that as a free opportunity to mind her own things, which was totally professionally unacceptable.

One day, it was extreme, that she blatantly denied during the duty I did for her as a cover. She was to replace that for me. I brought it to her attention thinking it is obvious she would take it up. But to my surprise, she told me she had already done all her supposed duties for the month, and I should approach the other coworker she actually balmed in the post, lets call her M (29/F). I am a not so directly confronting person , so I asked M to help me out and cover the duty for me. It was actually unfair to ask her that, as it was not her obligation, but to just avoid drama. But she took her stand and told me, we should not let this pass by, and if we do, she will continue taking advantage of the situation. So, M tried to explain to X with the duty roster, as it would be X's turn to compensate the duty I did for her. She lashed out at her in front of the patients and attendees. X took it to a level of street fight. She started taking the fight to a personal level, completely failing to see that she was the wrong one here. We left it there, and moved forward. But definitely by this time, we all kind of felt a resentment towards her. It kept on happening many other times.

The problems manifolded since she started talking to this one guy, who she only prouldly told us, tells her to shut us all down and focus on 'her work'. She never cooperate with any of us for any work. She will make sure its we against her always. Work became entirely difficult just because of this one person. So we decided to report it unofficially to our senior colleagues who were also burned by her few times. They suggested we all collectively approach our chief and address this and we did. Chief is kind of diplomatic person, who would do anything to neutralize the situation diplomatically, which came into her favour and she kept on doing all the shit anyway.

But by this point, she took it to a personal revenge against M as she thought she was the one who is instigating all of us to go to war against us, which is not the case as M spoke for all of us. She repeatedly complained about M, making personal accusations against her.

She skipped this part in her post about how toxic of a relationship she actually was in, which we could only see. In duty hours, she will be on phone with her fiance for hours, using one of the departmental room as her own personal room, locking the door from inside, as if its her bedroom. Mind you he is also a working doctor, who must be very aware of how unprofessional it is. Some days she would continuously cry and throw tantrums at others after those phone calls. No body had any intention in getting to her personal world, to gossip about it, but it was more than obvious that people started talking about it. Sometimes, she overshare some of her problems with one junior colleague, the mumma's boy thing and all, which again became a talk. She only brought this on herself. She boasts about her fiance continuously to even the interns she met just yesterday, even they came and told us, she is quite weird. She even started giving off free relationship advises to people. Lol. All we could think was, is the said guy blind enough to date her or maybe he is going to be worse than her!

Whenever she gets chance, she take dig on M's husband and marriage. We have met her husband, he is a fine looking, hard working gentleman, we even went out to dinner with him. They are a happy couple. And M started glowing after marriage, even though their life is just regular and normal. They are currently expecting a baby. Maybe all this pissed her off, while she was crying daily or throwing tantrum out of her personal frustration.

She didn't invite me or M for her marriage, while she invited everyone else present in front of us, even the very junior colleagues. We felt bad, but oh boy, we didn't want to see her wedding day drama. So, few of them went to attend the wedding and came back and told all the drama happened there. No one wanted to see a girl getting stood up on her wedding day, so we empathized with her. We were all very considerate with her on the day she came back. But suddenly out of the blue, she stormed to M and started accusing that she had done something to cancel her wedding! Out of the blue. She was being completely delusional. M asked her proofs which she didn't have. We don't even know her fiance personally, nor any of her family. I pity them in fact to get tangled with her. M completely broke down and she is currently 4 months pregnant and started hyperventilating. We all rushed to help her and called X crazy to behave that way. M left early that day and wanted to report the issue. But her husband told her not to entertain any further drama between us and he and her family met with chief and filed an official complaint.

From next day, X pretended like nothing happened and started completely immersed in her books and personal work. None of us obviously wanted to interact with her. M completely ignores being even near to her as she finds it mentally draining. We thought all the drama is over, but after about a month, this post came up and it shocked us all that she is still carrying the sinister grudge against us all!
