On Friday when I was working the salad bar one of he supervisors from another building complimented me on how nice the salad bar looked?

And then the culinary general manager thanked me for helping out for being willing to work at another building and my one coworker was mad and I was wondering why she would be mad? No rude comments please.

Hmm that's kinda weird your coworker got mad about you helping out at another building and getting compliments. A few possibilities:

- She may be jealous that you're getting recognized by managers and she's not. Some people don't like when others succeed.

- If you had to cover for her at your usual building while working at the other one, she might be annoyed about having to pull more weight alone.

- Or maybe she has a crush on one of the managers who complimented you and was feeling insecure about it.

Hard to say for sure without knowing her. I wouldn't worry too much about it though man. You did good work helping out and that's what matters. Don't let her bad attitude bring you down! Keep doing you and being willing to take on more tasks. That's noticed by the right people. Don't change just cause she's in a mood.

Next time she seems mad, maybe just ask casually what's up so you can clear the air. But otherwise wouldn't spend too much energy stressing over her reaction. You're killing it from the sounds of it!

Maybe because she thought you had been flirted with and she hadn't

I think there’s many people who have different reactions to different things and this seems like too short of a scenario/time frame to understand intentions and relationship dynamics with your peers.

To look into it more from this context alone and trying to help you all o see is 50/50

could be one way or another. Meaning interest and jealousy or genuine compliment and jealousy or neutrality and you wrongly perceived her reaction or simply caught her on a bad day.

it’s either going to be an outcome you wanted or one you’re okay with or don’t want. It’s just difficult to tell since we don’t know their behavior with you on the regular, their beliefs and such and so forth.

before you assess them think of you want anything deeper between any of them. Relationship with a coworker? … 😬 friendship with a coworker?

I hope it works out for you. Needs more context and on going interaction summaries.

Best to you!

She wasn't mad, she is jealous of you and all of the compliments you are getting on what a good job you are doing.

Instead of being mad at you for doing good work, maybe she should get some good ideas on how to be a better worker.

Need more info to make any sense out of this.
