Hi all,
Today was the final straw at work. One of my colleagues was working on an incredible community project, which our boss tried to sabotage this event from the beginning.
The presentation went well and the boss took all of the credit for it. The real kicker was some community members presented her with flowers, even though my colleague did everything. The boss sent out an email stating how wonderful it was they gave her flowers and my colleague responded how much she liked the flowers/needed to know where they were from because she wanted to get her own.
And after 10pm, the boss sent a text message to all of our personal phones with a photo of the flower, stating how much she was enjoying them in her apartment.
I’m so disgusted. This woman is so narcissistic and abusive. She has no boundaries and she undervalues everyone. We also had an interview with a staff member who has been working weekends and really busting her butt for a promotion today. The boss is going to hire someone outside to be her manager even though five of us wanted to promote our colleague since we know she will find a new job and that she will end up training the new person to be her boss since her skill set is very specialized.
Fortunately, I have a job interview on Tuesday, too. I’m just telling myself this is the “final boss showdown.” I can’t believe how out of touch some people are.
