know from the vendor the woman i hired and she worked for my printer for 3 years and she told me that she has bipolar tendencies. all week she's been hyper and laughing and being real loud and i've felt real sick and its been really hard. i've told her twice and she wouldn't stop it.

so i guess i'm going to have to have a talk with her on monday. i just can't take it. i'm used to a pretty quiet life.

so what would you say to her? i really need some advice badly.

bipolar tendency? what is that? ask her if she is on any medication for it, cuz if she is she needs to be on something better, and if she isn't maybe she needs to be on some. although what doc would diagnose that and what exactly does it mean? either a person is bipolar or not. there's no middle ground.

Could just be her personality though, Fran. Some people are just loud. Of course you can always explain that you prefer the office to be a bit quieter and see if it helps, but it might not or she might get upset that you don't like her "outgoing" personality. Worth a try though if she is already driving you nuts.
