I would advise go to HR QUICK - do not waste a minute.  She is not only a lawsuit waiting to happen - the comments about your personal life as well as those about her liason are not only inappropriate, they at least border on hassament if not out and out so.

Many companies have a 90 day policy in which they can let an associate go with no questions asked.  However, if they hit that 91st day it takes an "Act Of God" to get rid of them.  Don't know if your company has this policy or not; if they do you need to bear this in mind.

I say you have no choice.  HR or at the least Marge's supervisor needs to be aware of her crass treatment of others.

As for the talking on the hands free phone while working, this is an irritant to add to many others; however, not actionable.  Although it does go to show just how unprofessional she is.

In making your comments to HR maintain a high degree of professionalism.  Tell them what you have observed without emotions creeping in.  Then let it go!  For you own peace of mind and sanity.
