Here I come again with my instance and opinion. When I entered my former place called Hell, there was a woman there with a BS degree(pardon the pun) and she had the personality of a know-it-all and a complete ****. She was jealous of my experience with government but the Director and Co-Director were the biggest bunch of political players who deserved a huge lobotomy but that is a whole other issue.
When Ms. I Have The Personality of Wet Cement became the Office Manager, it was me vs. her. She was hired because of politics, not because she could do the job but she made my life a living hell. She was bitching about everything I was doing, and I could go through the list but then she decided to steal my charger and throw it at me behind closed doors. I reported this WAY ABOVE Human Resources because you can't trust them. They work for the Director, not for you. I got the oh I forgot the ass but I told him the whole situation and he told THE DIRECTOR to discipline Ms. Violent Offender. I come to find out later that she was NEVER disciplined for it but I was and moved from the front desk. The reason why is because she didn't want to see me (the real reason), but it was a "discipline issue" because I "wasn't doing my job".
HUH?
So I was given a new supervisor (comes to find out that she was only a supervisor for time sheets and for attendance) and I was left alone for 4 months. I had all of my work that I busted my ass doing taken away from me so I got my Union involved.
If those assholes think they could play politics with me, they haven't seen a damn thing yet.
So I put EEOC complaints for age and disability through them which failed which shouldn't have however after three bullcrap performance evaluations, I was fired.
Oh really.
August 29th, I went into the office and I sat there and the two idiots, Human Resources and Resources Management was there to tell me I was fired and I sat there looking at both of them with a solid face of "oh just you wait". Worse yet, I was deleting a few pictures on my computer and she touched my husband on the arm FROM BEHIND which was horrid because he could've attacked and killed her. FIrst of all, you are NOT supposed to touch me or my husband when I've been fired, which could be labeled as assault. He was a former bouncer and you don't come from behind a 6'5" man like that and expect to live. I told her point blank, "Don't you EVER touch my husband again!" I was loud and I made sure that the office knew how much of a two faced bitch she was.
After receiving unemployment, I had terrible panic attacks and of course, things at home were bringing me to my knees. I prayed to my HIgher Power many times but in His time, an amazing thing happened.
We voted a new Governor and boy, was HE PISSED OFF!!! He told the Director of my former office to either be fired over my issue or resign. He was ordering ALL Directors to be fired however, when he found out that NOTHING was done about my workplace violence, the new Governor gave him a rather nasty phone call asking him why HE didn't deal with the situation and why the Co-Director dealt with it and there is no records on it in the office but in the office of the Ombudsman. Why was it not reported? He found out that the Co-Director was FRIENDS with Ms. I'm Gonna Get My Ass in Deep Dog Shit and well, he worked with the same Department she was in. Uh huh. Now the truth comes out..
Sooo....after I cursed my office under my breath, the Director "claimed" he retired after 30 years (he only worked 20 years-lying),and the Co-Director has fallen out of favor with the office. People are speaking up finally after what happened to me as I don't play any games. I am the queen of politics and, even with my PTSD, I won the battle and won the war. The attorney finally said, "If you resign, we will wipe your file clean."
That's all I wanted. Now I'm going to school to change to become a cyber security engineer and I have a great job.
If I can win, you can too.
