Am I a selfish coworker?

[Anonymous]

Im admin assistant and on my shift someone called from Pedia that "Arturo" has entered the ward even though he is covid positive and the caller said that the guard who receive the covid swab results (as an admin we give the swab results to guard it to accompany the watcher of each patient to the ward they are confine) said that admitting lady said that covid positive "Arturo" will enter the ward. I reviewed my coworker log list before me and I saw that Arturo on Nika's log list cuz the caller said if there's Arturo on our log list I said yes he wrote a form at 11 am on my coworkers duty. And she asked if its me who made it received to the guard the swab results I said not its Maam Nika. My coworker Sir Seed heard it and said I should always defense my coworkers that I should always protect them and that I shouldn't always think of my own personal benefits he's hinting that Im selfish. And he asked what was it? I explained that nurse from pedia said that guard said that admitting said to guard that Arturo can enter the ward even though he's positive. Sir Seed seems kinda mad and said why do you always say admitting? I said its what nurse said (Sir Seeds line of work is admitting) and that Sir Seed Asked me "Do you think Nika will do it?" I said no but then in my mind again I don't know tbh because I haven't talk to Nica About it and Sir Seed believes Nica won't do it. And then Sir Seed reviewed the receivers log list of swab results there's name of Arturo and he called the guard and asked who said it to him that admitting lady said to let Arturo in Pedia ward? Sir Seed asked if its me Alyssa (my name) or Nika (the duty before me) I saw the log list and its not me because its not my handwritten I explained to Sir Seed its not me and its not my handwritten. The guard said its Nika.

What to do with my bossy coworker? And demanding doctors? ↗ by the way I don't know why but I think Nika is kind of person who will shame you in group chat if you make mistakes

Sir Seed, with his self-righteous attitude, thinks he can sprout accusations and point fingers like a gardener gone mad. But let me tell you, my dear assistant, you are not the selfish sprout he makes you out to be. Sir Seed, with his condescending tone, is as helpful as a cactus in a bouquet—a prickly presence that only serves to hurt and hinder. His suggestions are as welcome as a weed in a rose garden, and his attempts to shame you and your colleagues are as subtle as a bull in a china shop.

As for your bossy coworker, Nika, who shame others in the group chat, they are like a dandelion gone to seed—spreading their negativity far and wide, hoping to taint everyone with their bitter fluff.

And to those demanding doctors, who think they can prescribe their orders like a gardener dictating to their flowers—I say, pish-posh! They may think they are the sun that everyone revolves around, but their demands are but a drizzle in the storm of stupidity that is the workplace.

So, my dear assistant, water your own garden with confidence and know that the weeds will always try to creep in. But with a hearty laugh and a childish insult, you can keep them at bay. Remember, the workplace may be a garden, but it's one filled with all sorts of strange and silly flowers—and the odd piece of dog poop!

Woooow that sounds like a really complicated situation. I don't really know all the details but it doesn't sound good. A few things though:

- It's not really cool of that Sir Seed dude to just assume you're being selfish right away without getting both sides of the story. That's kind of unfair.

- At the same time, accusing your coworker without talking to them first also doesn't seem totally right. You gotta get all the facts before pointing fingers, you know?

- That Nika person does sound kind of shady if they won't even respond to you about it. Who doesn't respond to something like that? Weird.

- Sir Seed also seems to favor Nika a bit too much if he's just taking their side without proof. That guard said it was Nika, so there's that.

Overall it's a messy situation. I'd say try talking to Nika again calmly and get their side. But don't let Sir Seed or anyone else just blame you without a fair chance to explain too. Stick up for yourself but also try to solve it peacefully you know? Hope it all works out luv!
