Stand up for yourself. Tell the girl that enough is enough...if she has an issue with you, ask her to pull you into the office with your boss.

I HATE bullies! You need to raise hell. I worked in an office and a girl who had done nothing wrong to anyone (fair enough she made a few mistakes, wasnt the brightest etc but wasnt nasty or anything) was getting bullied. The company moved her to another dept. which is fair enough, however I can't help feel like they penalised her for being the victim rather than punishing the bullies. This is often what happens, particularly if the bullies are experienced members of staff and the management are more scared of them than they are of the management!You need to stand up to the B*TCH. If you can't do that (and I know its hard cos I am so weak in the workplace) then give your manager an ultimatum - 'deal with it or I am gone!'It might give you some time with a bit of peace before you find a new job. I would definately look to get a better job and move on.I wouldn't go on the sick, I know that being a victim of bullying can make you ill, but you need to stand tall and not let the bullies win. Going off sick will make you worse and make you feel more nervous when its time to go back or start a new work.I hope it goes well!

Don't allow yourself to be a victim. This bully has no right to make you unhappy, or to force you to move on. Make sure the next time she has a go at you, that she does it in front of people, then take a deep breath, and let rip! You need to tell her politely, and quite loudly that it is completely unprofessional for her to have a go at you in front of the others. Going sick with 'stress' is the cowards way out, and you can be sure she will harp on about you and your 'imaginary' illness. You have to stand up for yourself now, as wherever you work you will face bullies, and its not much of a life to keep running away. You have the backing of your boss, and that is more than some have. Good luck and give the cow hell!!!!!

Still go to work, she will be happy to see you leaving. Be professional, ignore her if you can. Send an email to your HR Director and cc one of the most influential person in your company who you think will be be alarmed by your situation. Discuss to them your problem with that bully girl and point out that its affecting your work and ask for their advise. Work harder and show them that you're doing your job well. However, if it all doesn't work, if the authorities do nothing about it, file a resignation. It simply means that they don't care about their employees, they don't care about you, so you don't have anymore reason to stay. You don't deserve it. There's still lots of work out there, just look for it and you'll find it. Goodluck!
