Work in a smallish office, about 10 of us. Had to let a lady go yesterday who is toxic to work with and is batchit crazy.
Last year there was an incident where she went crazy on us and threatened to kill herself. Should have been fired then but unfortantly wasn't.
She's had more outbursts/yelling with me and other employees since. No threats, but irrational/childish behavior that is completely unprofessional.
Yesterday she went into a slight rage over nothing where I thought she was going to attack me with her keyboard. Raised it completely over her head and slammed it down on her desk screaming. Was fired two hours later.
Letting her go was already in the works, but yesterday sped it up a week or so.
Here's the deal, she's highly unstable and irrational. She threatened to kill herself a year ago, so I'm somewhat concerned about her coming into the office for a little revenge.
She has no husband, no kids, and no friends. I think she's close to her parents which are an hour and a half away maybe.
Many will agree/disagree, but I came to work with my glock just in case. Way too crazy of a world right now!
What would you do? Thoughts?
