Catfights, at least physical fights, in the work place are a rarity. That’s not to say they never do, or never have happened. I’ve heard of women fighting after work, but generally, well away from the actual work place.
When I worked in an office, pre-1998, I knew of four women, who actually worked with me, who had fought with another woman whom they had worked with. That would have spanned a period of around forty years. They’ve all retired now.
I know of two other women, who worked elsewhere, who had also fought with a woman they had worked with.
Taking the ages of them when I finished working in an office, and one of those women had retired by then, that would have been twelve women out of thousands of women over the years..
Also, any fights that happened, would not have been filmed. There was no internet when those women fought. If two women were going to fight, it could be kept a closely regarded secret. It was all kept to word of mouth.
One woman told me, the only fight she ever saw between two women who worked in the same office, was back in 1971 or 1972. There had been bad feeling between them for quite a while. It eventually came to boiling point. The atmosphere changed in the office, and everybody went very secretive.
On the day they were going to fight, you could cut the atmosphere in that office with a knife. There were “secret whispers” going around. Most women wanted to know everything, but at the same time, didn’t want to say anything.
The two women who were going to fight, both in their early forties, remained silent that day.
They fought on a Friday after work behind an old derelict building, well away from the office. Both women reported sick on the Monday.
In this case they were lucky. If they had been wearing a work uniform, they could have been dismissed for bringing the company into disrepute. Also, they fought about twenty minutes after their official finishing time, so it was classed has something else.
They would have likely to have lost their jobs today.
