Out of the frying pan…

By Godhelpme - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Houston

Today, in a last-ditch attempt to get away from my psycho coworker, I made my boss transfer me to another branch in the district. My coworker was immediately moved to that branch, because we "work well together". FML

Maybe you should file a work complaint against said coworker. That sounds a bit like stalking to me.

I can see how working next to a psycho would increase productivity. Shit, I'd want to get home quicker, too!

If you haven't noticed jobs are kind of hard to come by or at least good ones.

I don't think OP specifically told his boss that the coworker was the problem, from the way the FML was worded it sounds like he just asked for a transfer.

Tell the co worker to **** off. Then, is they file a complaint, tell your boss.

Sounds like Jake and Amir lol.. no but seriously you should tell your boss the reason why you wanted to transfer and that you'd be even more productive without the psycho coworker

Speak up. Maybe talk to the co-worker and tell him/her how you feel. If this situation gets worse or continues to occur, then talk to your boss. Being honest can always help.

Sounds like you asked for the transfer but didn't bother to tell your boss why you wanted it. You said it was a "last ditch" effort - I assume you mean your last chance to avoid feeling like you had to quit the job. If transferring or quitting were your only options then you were an idiot not to tell your boss about your problems with this person. YDI for not being honest about the situation in the first place.
