Honestly! I am so relieved! She was bullying and gaslighting me and I finally had the guts to go to HR and tell on her. Today I had a meeting with her, where she accused me of badmouthing her behind her back (which I didn't) and was very angry, saying stuff like “if you hadn't quit, I would have fired you soon anyway”. According to HR there were a lot of other employees who left the company because of her and her bullying. She was seriously so angry because I ended it on my terms and tried her best to just hurt me one more time. But honestly I am so glad, that i am done with her!

Honestly, I hate that there is no “good faith” offers anymore. I hate even more that I fell for one in this day and age. I have been with my current company about a year and a half now. 3 months ago, I saw opportunity to advance within and went for a small promotion. I'd be under the same manager just a different department and it was going to be a better fit all around, but the best part was I'd get a raise. So when I was offered the position I was overjoyed. It came with an immediate pay bump of $1.25 per hour. Awesome! Then my manager did something unexpected. They offered me an additional raise of $2 per hour after my trial period – 3 months. Um, yes please. Needless to say, I spent those three months working hard to prove not only that I could do…

This isn’t some moral high ground debate, Elon. It’s common sense. Improving working conditions doesn’t take a rocket scientist.
