My toxic entitled boss tries to get me fired by trying to blame me for things that she should have

0:05.4

done. But instead of taking this sitting down, I decided to get some revenge by submitting all

0:10.4

the receipts I could possibly find that blatantly proved how incompetent my boss was. And as a result,

0:16.3

she ended up getting fired. Here's what happened. So I'm a 30-year-old female and I've been a people

0:21.2

pleaser to a fault my entire life. I've been working in marketing for 10 plus years and over the

0:26.3

years I've had my fair share of bosses who were either good, average, or just straight-up sucked.

0:31.3

But there is one in particular that stood out as completely awful. For the sake of the story,

0:35.6

we'll call her Pamela and she's in her 40s and

1:05.2

and all the administrative grunt work to literally keep the department afloat. I managed all this

1:09.9

because I had access to her email and many times sent emails on her behalf just to keep the department afloat. I managed all this because I had access to her email and many

1:12.2

times sent emails on her behalf just to keep the department functioning. Pamela spent most of her time

1:17.9

showing up at about 10 o'clock in the morning, taking business lunches and planning company parties.

1:22.4

I consistently questioned why she spent so much of our budget on these events when we didn't have the

1:28.1

budget resources for any of it. So Pamela told me to take from future months budgets to pay

1:33.3

for the current month's overspending, meaning that at the start of every month, I had an

1:37.7
