My toxic, spiteful coworker literally tries to get me fired by lying to my company that I was sabotaging our system.

But now, after a few years and I got promoted, this lady is now working for me, giving me a golden opportunity to exact my revenge in the best way possible.

Here's what happened.

Several years ago, I worked with the most spiteful, troublemaking woman who we will call Mary for the sake of the story. She and I applied for the same promotion, and she got it. Now, I was okay with not getting the job, because it really wasn't part of my career path. I just wanted the extra money. Now, she was not in my chain of command, but she seemed to think that her promotion gave her the right to treat me badly. She would make snide

comments about me to my coworkers, who thankfully knew what she was all about and would stand

I suspected Mary, but again, I had no

proof. It all came to a head when she announced to the entire office that I was actually the one

who was sabotaging the computer system. Of course, nobody believed her, but it was still very upsetting

for me. It got so bad that I made arrangements to go to my new job earlier than originally

planned. For the next several years,

Mary and I would have to work together on projects. I spoke to her as little as possible, and covering all

my bases was my motto. And while it was awkward, it was also manageable. During that time, I received

several promotions, and I ended up as the director of my department. There are about 50 people in

my department, and I mainly have contact with only the supervisors. And I guess I'm known as the director of my department. There are about 50 people in my department, and I mainly
