Advice from Annie Lane.
I have an employee who is constantly overbearing and frequently steps out of line in regards to privacy and personal space. She mistakenly sent me a text where she was revealing to a family member who works at a medical office where I was obtaining medical services, and describing my car and what state my tags were from. This shook me, considering it’s my private medical treatment at stake, and I have no idea what else has been discussed without my knowledge.
How can I professionally say you’ve gone too far and my medical treatments are off limits for discussion? This should be a given and just plain common sense, but there seem to be no bounds regarding her nosy antics.How violating and bizarre this woman’s behavior is, indeed. Your feelings are totally valid.
If you are comfortable, confront her one-on-one. Let her know, as you have in your letter, that her disclosure of such personal information is both invasive and highly inappropriate. If necessary, look to your company’s HR department for support in this matter. I’m confident they’ll agree this crosses many boundaries and will be happy to help resolve the situation.
Buy washable, waterproof covers for the furniture. Deploy child or pet gates at the doorways of rooms you don’t want the dogs to enter, or install locking doorknobs on the doors to those rooms, with the keyhole side on the outside of the door. Make the key accessible in case of fire, of course, but “Cat Lady” should have her husband explain to his family that those rooms are off limits to the dogs, and the doors are to be kept closed and locked.
