Don't get too excited, I'm not talking about Pelosi or any of those witches.
Trigger warning; some of you may find what I am about to say offensive or cold hearted. I don't want to hear about it Nancy. Please refer to my I used to work for the devil post to put what I'm about to say into context.
I am usually the nicest most compassionate person you'll ever meet. However if you ever betray or abuse me it's game on.
Ding dong the witch is dead, he will never hurt me or my team again.
My old service manager called me this morning to let me know our former boss had passed away in his sleep.
Although neither of us were happy that he was dead we weren't saddened either. Almost relieved.
The former service manager had left the store 2 years ago and by our conversation I could tell that he was still affected / shell shocked by the abuse he had endured there as well.
I was second & he was third in command when we worked there together. He had things worse than I did in a lot of ways.
He was the first of several former and current employees I spoke with or texted with today.
Most were surprised DevilD died but not saddened to hear the news.
So this is a wake up call for any asshats out there being mean to everyone. When you die everybody's going to be glad you're gone if you don't straighten up.
I was actually kind of mad he died. I wanted him to have to pay for the horrible things he did to all of us.
One of my employees left a week after I did because she couldn't handle it there without me protecting her. She and I were both in agreement that it was a shame this didn't happen 2 months sooner so we wouldn't have had to give up everything to escape his abuse.
But on the other hand, I feel a peace I haven't felt in a long time. Knowing he is dead I know he can't hurt me or my reputation anymore.
I went to the store to chat with one of my former employees after he had called to find out if I knew yet.
DevilD had been out on medical leave for the past month and things had been really good in the store. He was afraid that things would return to being abusive once he returned.
Although they had been somewhat dysfunctionally close he was relieved he wasn't coming back.
We spent a few minutes validating each other's feelings and discussing mutual experiences of working there.
We used to discuss the psychology of what was happening to us. Today was a lot like old times but way more therapeutic.
Working there was like a dysfunctional family. During times of high abuse it was as if I was the mother trying to protect the children from their angry father.
I worked there as long as I did to protect my team. Now I know my former team is going to be just fine and so am I.
Ding dong the witch is dead. I wish I could be sad but I'm not. Goodbye & good riddance DevilD may your soul rest in peace.
