       And unfriend her on FB and block her number. Why are you reading
       her disgusting opinions on FB?
       She doesn't know how you feel because you don't correct her.
       From the few posts, it sounds like you're giving signs that you
       want to be friends. For example, why did you offer her the
       unicorn ring (from the other thread) when you know how she feels
       about Pride? When she says disgusting things, do you tell her "I
       don't find that acceptable. Do not say racist or homophobic
       things to me." Stop putting yourself in a rage and cut her off
       except professionally. I know it's not wise to make enemies at
       work, but you can say what you find unacceptable in a calm and
       factual way.

       You guys are correct.  Gave her way to much time in my head.
       It's over,  when I see her I will be polite.
       But I will tell you about our final work meeting.  There were
       about 5 of us.  3 women and 2 men, we were waiting for the
       others.  She pulled up her shirt and adjusted her bra!  Then
       apologized to the men.   ;D ;D ;D ::) ::) ::)

       When people truly lack class, they tend to demonstrate it in
       many, many ways.

       I would unfriend her immediately. In fact, I’d unfriend all
       current coworkers and keep Facebook to family and personal.
       Your online connection to someone making such ugly comments
       maybe a reflection on you to others.
       I distance myself as much as possible from people like this.
       They are bad news. And if she’s lying to you she will definitely
       lie about you.

       What a waste of space she sounds like!  If you haven't
       unfriended her yet, you can at least stop seeing her posts (I
       know there is a way to do that) and also block her from seeing
       your posts.

       So, you have this and her making facebook comments that are out
       of line.
       When a co-worker is this messed up, your best bet is to steer
       clear of her and don't discuss her with anyone. Co-workers and
       management will figure out for themselves what she's like. Also,
       withhold judgement about Joe. You don't know whether he came up
       with the gift idea, or she did.
       And I wouldn't put in money toward the gift. Giving a gift to
       employees of your company, who are simply doing the job they are
       being paid to do, seems odd to me. People already get annoyed
       with the nickle and diming at work. Why expand it?
