Inconsiderate Co-worker

Hi Blackman, I recently started working at a new company. Most of my co-workers are ok except for one. She is constanly on the phone or taking a smoke break. She flirts with the male employees and she doesn't do her share of the work at all. She's driving me crazy. What should I do?

This one is easy. Mind your own business! Your co-worker's behavior has nothing to do with you. You have no control of how others act, but you do have control of how you respond to it. It only bothers you because you let it. Handle your own work and things will be alright. You are new there, so don't start off by looking like a troublemaker.
