Remember those days in high school when you thought you’d never have to deal with certain people again? Well, imagine if one of those people ended up working with you years later, and they just can’t seem to let go of the past. Our protagonist (28F) found herself in this exact situation when a former high school acquaintance joined her company. Although they didn’t have any issues back then, the new coworker started making comments about how much our protagonist had supposedly changed. But was it just harmless reminiscing, or was there more to it? Let’s dive into the story.

High School Acquaintance Joins the Company

Is She Just Reminiscing or Stirring Up Drama? ‍♀️

Our protagonist is fed up with her high school acquaintance-turned-coworker constantly making comments about how different she is now compared to back then. She’s tried talking to her about it, but the comments persist, so she’s taken the issue to HR. Now, the coworker is calling her an a**hole and accusing her of being jealous and seeking revenge. But is our protagonist really overreacting, or is her coworker using these comments to stir up drama and imply that she wasn’t cool back in high school? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
