Question: I feel like I’m getting bullied by a co-worker. One example is that recently a new cell phone for her, that it was my job to order, did not arrive as scheduled. She came to my desk, stood about one foot away looking down at me and in an angry raised voice asked where her new cell phone was as if I reported to her. This is only one of many examples I could give. How should I deal with this?
