How would you deal with a coworker that screams and criticizes you all day non stop until they go hoarse?

I honestly try not to scream back. She screams at literal full volume about her everything all day calls me stupid crazy sick a loser etc. tells me to kill myself? she corners me and scream in my face. She does this on my lunch break too. So now I take lunch across the street with my significant other. Who she is afraid of.

They aren't a boss. She does it to her adult kids and wonder why they go low contact. I am ready to quit because I feel bullied. But would miss my customers. I honestly have a bad temper I could make her cry if I want to but I have great self control and try not let it out. I love my job but this is bs.

Leave

Stay

Something else

My boss is her sister. Who is afraid of her. The yelling coworker is a terrible worker too. Like she can't figure anything out. So I do do both of her jobs while she screams like a lunatic

The customers don't seem to have a problem with me just her freaking out

This is ridiculous, its workplace harassment since she's clearly berating you unnecessarily as opposed to reprimanding you for a mistake.

I don't think leaving is a bad idea, but before that you should go to HR about her insane behavior. If she conducts herself unprofessionally over text or email as well then that can serve as concrete evidence. If HR asks for further evidence of her behavior then you should confirm with them as to how you should obtain it.

I would suggest doing a recording but recording a conversation without consent is iffy. You should confirm with HR as to whether they are willing to take unethically obtained evidence into consideration.

I hope you're able to get this b***** fired lol.

She thinks everyone is looking at her. She acts like everyone is harrassing her when we are just working.

I set a girl like this up with my ex boyfriend, worthless guy but such a big dick. Turned out she just needed a good dicking.

Hey love, dealing with a coworker like that sounds like a nightmare! 🙈 You deserve a work environment filled with positive vibes. Check if there's a higher-up you can confide in about her behavior. Document everything, just in case. If possible, keep those breaks with your significant other. Remember, self-care and mental peace come first! Maybe she's projecting her issues on you—a classic red flag. Stay strong and choose sanity over a toxic workplace. You got this! 🌟

Management tolerates this? How do they not know?

[Asker]

Oh they know. It's their sister. It's a family owned business. The sister says she is menopausal and she can't regulate her emotions

You should be searching for a new position. If you can afford to quit, you should.
