There is a bully in my office. She doesn't answer to anyone, so she of course gets away with it.
Aside from quitting, is there any recourse?

When I talk to the owner, he says "you'll have to talk to her about this."
I really think the only option is to quit. Luckily for me, I live in the worst economy in the US.

In all seriousness, we don't have enough information on exactly what she's saying/doing.

How does she not answer to anyone? Is she the manager? *NM*

Hrm. Whether there's recourse or not depends on whether you're supported by management

I didn't take that as rudenes. I am pretty sure he was just teasing. *NM*

I thought that was possible on the original reply. The second removed my doubt.

You could tell her you are ready to quit if things continue.

She would likely open the door for me.
