Hi Sann,
If I’m understanding you correctly, this lady is taking over your task? If that’s the case, just tell her ‘You know what? I can take over now. Thanks for your help.’
And that’s it. Short and sweet.
You have to protect what’s yours when it comes to working with other people. Most people at work are self serving and don’t care about you. So you really shouldn’t care about them. That doesn’t mean you have to act like b-tch. But you really have to train people not to mess with you. And that only comes from reacting in the moment. Constantly. Until it’s natural to be that way. Be polite yet firm. Always firm. And don’t engage in a long back and forth–just stick to your position.
Fight for yourself! If you don’t fight, you can’t win. And you deserve to win!
Good luck! 🙂
