Overview
If an aggressive coworker makes a move toward taking over a responsibility that is rightfully yours, there could be big problems today. It's not that you are feeling territorial, it's that you have learned to protect yourself -- you are the number one priority when push comes to shove, and you will likely feel a shove coming your way today. Act with respect and kindness, but guard your responsibilities. You can even play dumb if that will help you hold on to what you've earned.
