I agree with Wiley....
She is either very new or lacks confidence. She should have explained the whys as well as the rules....Keep an eye on her...her self doubts could be trouble......

FSI
She is nothing more or less than a female control junkie, banish her from your mind and consign her to the hell of herself........

I agree with both comments.
She was correct to tell you to leave the door open and also correct to report you, though. Some things need to be remembered and for the sake of the agency you need to follow rules, even if they had not been enforced for the seven previous years.
Maybe you should try to stop being so sensitive, and try to give her some slack. Try to see her point of view because getting into a power struggle does no one any good. Think of why you are there, instead of what the new "girl" or "cleaning girl" did, or tried to do, or what you imagine she is trying to do to you. She may have been given extra instructions because the agency wants her help with supervising how things are handled. Maybe somebody just explained the rules to her and she does NOT have extra authority. In EITHER case, she was correct. Your body language may be threatening to her. Your attitude should be one of friendly helpfulness. I know you cannot expect yourself to be what you are not. You are not Jimmy Stewart, after all, but I think you should back off and give her some slack. Grease the social wheels for the sake of the residents and for your own sake. Chill, baby. Don't fumigate, er, ruminate.

I am at such a loss with this woman. I can understand making you aware that the door is not to be closed, especially if it is policy! But, to make such an ado over the Wii when you clearly stated you were unfamiliar with it! She feels like nothing more than a tattle tale to serve her own interests! I am having the most difficulty with the fact that you are not respected as a volunteer by her! She seems to be looking for things that are not to house specs so she can tell whomever is in charge! To deliberately misrepresent your number on her index is outrageous and cunning! I believe she will eventually hang herself with her own rope because she is less than forthright! i believe the first thing I would do is to determine the chain of command. I have known people in the past who like to tell everyone around what they could and couldn't do even though they did not possess the authority to so! If she is not in the chain of command then I would seek out who she is responsible to report to and ask that they get her off your back so to speak. A person who cleans should not be telling others what to do, even though she was in a different role that day, it seems highly unlikely that she possesses and type of authority and that could be why she went behind your back with the report! She may be wielding power that is not hers! I believe that if one follows the chain of command with questions and the like they can never go wrong! I wish you all the best for your dedication is commendable and your treatment should be commensurate with that level! sam
