Coworker insists employee knit something for her free of charge but they refuse, their boss suggests they stop knitting in the office to fend her off: ‘Stupid entitled tantrum’

A nosy coworker has the potential to ruin everything—especially when they're not getting something they want from you.

We all have our hobbies, right? Some might dabble in woodworking, others in botany. There are a lot of craft people out there as well: Knitting, crocheting, sewing… The opportunities for creativity are endless. Some workplaces even allow us to do mindless crafting while we're on the clock, which is a lifesaver if you're trying to make the time at the office go by just a bit quicker.

But we also all have that one coworker who wants to ruin all of the fun. Their greed gets in the way of our unobstructed fun, and no matter what, we pay the price for it.

The story below focuses on an employee who takes up knitting during her free time at work. Their boss takes no issue with this, but one of their coworkers begins asking them to knit her something—free of charge. Even after the employee refuses, the coworker relentlessly asks them, and then complains to the boss when they continually refuse. What would you do in this situation?
