Don't let a little bit of status get in the way of the sort of
day-to-day relationships you need on the job, relationships that make
your tasks easier to accomplish and can help you to feel better about
yourself at the end of the workday. Find out why this secretary is
acting out toward you. I'll bet she's really pissed at the lawyers in
your office and how they treat her, but she doesn't feel safe enough to
challenge them. So she represses that anger and lets it out at you,
someone the lawyer-bosses seem to have painted a target on. Approach her
like an adult, like a sister, a fellow worker. You might be surprised at
how she will respond, and how your worklife will change.
