One of my closest friends here at work has been pissing me off, which would be okay, but I have to see her for eight hours every day. She's just a @#%^ing matyr lately as a way to handle the fact that she hates her job and it isn't that hard and it's annoying the sh*t out of me. Regularly, if we didn't work together, I would just take a break because it's not like we have a direct conflict that we have to resolve and if she pressed, I would tell her she's annoying the sh*t out of me. But it's difficult to avoid her. When I tell her what bothers me, she either gets really quiet or superargumentative, refusing to look at how she annoys the @#%^ out of lots of people here, even when we do get along better.
What should I do? Ignore it? Or punch her in the box? Now I just avoid her to an extent--I'm pretty good at being unapproachable when I have to be-- and will probably do so until I am ready to be reengaged.
