Welcome to our slash malicious compliance where OP gets her caran manager fired.

Today's podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp. My podcast platform has this neat little graph that

shows me my listener demographics, so I can see that most of my viewers are male. That's why I'm

thrilled that BetterHelp is sponsoring today's episode because mental health among men is honestly

a real problem. This statistic is crazy to me. Men make up 38% of talking therapy referrals,

yet 78% of suicides are males. That means that the people who need the help the most are getting

the least amount of help. Also, 6 million men per year suffer from depression and most of these

cases are undiagnosed. That's why I recommend BetterHelp. That's BetterHELP. BetterHelp will

match you to a licensed professional therapist who can help you address your mental health needs.

BetterHelp is not a crisis line or self-help. It's professional therapy done securely online.

years that she worked there. She would call us on the maintenance radios and be rude,

or tell the guys that they were being incompetent. It was beyond micromanagement, but on top of that,

she was also rude. She expected the maintenance guys to come do work at her house for free,

or she would tell some of the hospital vendors that she would guarantee the hospital contract

if they did work at her house for cheap. She used to brag about this to me.

Caran and I were the only women in our department of about 25 people. I was a mouthy 20-something

year old, and I didn't care for her attitude, so I would just say, yeah, sure, whatever,
