My old manager from 15 years ago, she tried several times to get me sacked, because she absolutely hated me for a reason I never found out. The company started to struggle so I was the first one to be made redundant because of her. A few weeks later I am working somewhere else in the same town, my new manager comes up to me and asks who the hell (my old manager) was? I asked how they knew her and apparently she had been phoning up trying to bad mouth me to get me sacked! Massively upset me how someone could hate me so much and I never found out why
Wow that's turbo fucked, what an asshole
I had one like that, but managed to get promoted to equal standing so she's no longer a direct threat. After nearly a decade of subtler sabotage, the company was sold to a competing firm when my boss retired, and one of their admins who had worked with her bad-mouthed her to hell and back but sang my praises. They had to keep her to do the shitty overcomplicated stuff nobody else wants to learn how to do, but at least now I don't have to talk to her and I'm doing okay at the new place.
