Coworker Mad At Me For Keeping A Selfie On My Mobile Of Us Together

[Treacle71]

My coworker is leaving her job soon so we decided to have a muck about and take a couple of selfies of us both on my phone. One photo didn't turn out very well and she hated it. I told her I'd delete it if she felt better about it, but really I retrieved it and kept it on my phone. However, I was showing her other photos on my phone and the picture she hated came next. She nearly killed me and accused me of lying, saying I told her I'd deleted etc and I said I forgot to delete properly and is caller me a liar. Now she's all moody with me. Surely I can have whatever I want on my own phone?
I texted her I was sorry if I've hurt her feelings and that it wasn't my intention, but she hasn't replied.

//Yes, the photo is now gone, but I'm being sent to Coventry.//

 

She obviously expected better of you.

If it's a "throw-away issue", why are you perpetuating it on here?

Yawn!

If she's leaving soon then just learn from it and move on. .once she's gone it will all be water under the bridge.

Sent to Coventry isn't that what children do at school. Grow up. You should have done what she asked and not lied twice about it

Is she the co-worker you described as,  "33 but going on 13!  I think she's attention seeking."

and "part of me is glad she's going!"?

[Treacle71]

Yes, her last day is today, so just one more day with her.

Can't believe I came in this morning to find a keyring with the word 'friend' on it and a voucher from her for me.  I can't believe it.

I'm not surprised that you are surprised by this kind gesture.  You don't like any of your colleagues.

[Treacle71]

I know.  So nice of her.  I was panicking over nothing in the end.  Water under the bridge now, she said.  Phew........

Please learn your lesson, and if you say you have done something then do it.

There are photos that I hate and I would be mortified if my 'friends' said they had deleted them and hadn't.

You quickly lose trust in people that way.
