Melodi,
Maybe I missed in one of your posts... have you taken this issue to
your direct supervisor? It's important that they be aware of it, even
if you think you can handle it. If you don't want any action to be
taken right away, just tell your supervisor that. There needs to be a
history (at least verbal if not written) with your manager in case of
incident in the future. Cover yourself.
As for why? Stress. It's not an excuse, but possibly the reason.
Good luck,
Dave
