Forced to compete against someone i feel bad for
So recently a coworker has had it out for me. He is constantly trying to outdo me and hurls insults when I do better than him.
I was promoted this last weekend and it pissed him off enough to call me out, in front of multiple people, and challenge me to a competition at work. I regret accepting.
I hate competitions, and I know for a fact that I will certainly win his challenge. But I feel bad because it’s obvious his ego is riding on this thing now.
I’m solid and confident in my ability, so I don’t need this extra validation, but it seems important to him.
