He makes comments to people like youre lazy and stop stuffing around dont think we dont see it. I finally snapped today and told him just because he doesnt understand what im doing doesnt make him right with a few explicits in there. He continued with his arrogant rants and i ignored him and carried on with my work. He then followed me and tried personally attacking me. I ignored him and just laughed to myself.He has pissed off 2 other coworkers before me. He has been there for 1 year. I have been there for 8 years and never had a problem with anyone until now. I have to work closely with him tomorrow and im not sure how to handle this. Im still boiling at this point. I want to call in sick but i know he will get the satisfaction from it and i dont want to affect the other worksers.I could win this arguement and put him in his place but i dont want to argue with a fool.

 The only advice I can give you is to contact your supervisor, manager or HR. This behavior should not be tolerated in the work place and if it is not just you who he is offending you should all complain about him.
Please don't call in sick because off someone so arrogant and abusive. If you start doing that you are loosing out and he is winning. Take this further up the ladder and go to your boss. It is the only way to solve it. Don't be afraid off him he is a fool as you say and he needs to learn it is not okay to treat people the way that he is.

 Have you talked to the supervisor?
Your boss?
HR?
I would do so and in that order. The guy is creating a hostile environment and that is NOT OK.
Honestly though? I'd question his OWN level of work ethics because WHEN he is busy telling others they are lazy HE obviously isn't working either... is he? So I'd tell him to go do his OWN work and leave you be. But I would STILL talk to a supervisor and then if need be the Boss and HR.
He sounds like an insecure twat.
