Hard-working employee

Dear Queenie,

All the people where I work have totally different jobs. I have a difficult job and when I have finished my work I take a break, go online or go out for a walk or a snack.

When I do this one of the others makes nasty remarks about me goofing off. It’s not as if I could help that person with their work because I don’t know anything about their job.

Queenie, how do I deal with this person?—Hard-working employee

Dear Employee,

As long as your boss is satisfied with your work, what you do is none of this person’s business. You could tell him or her that, or you could try to “make nice” by offering to bring him/her cup of coffee or a snack when you go out. Other than that, just ignore the person entirely.
