*continued*
So I walked away from Hell (my job of 1 year prior). I left contact information. I expected someone to call or email or text me. Especially my 'friend' who I'd been helping with her job for the last 2 years. No one called.
About a month later, I got an email from the President of the Board of Directors of Hell. Lets call him .... Burns. Burns said in the email that they needed me to tell them the password on my office phone and computer as no one could access anything. Obviously it was rude of me to place passwords on everything before walking out the door with no notice and no way for them to access me.
BIG FAT LIES!
I've never had a password on my phone. If there was one, it wasn't me that put it on. I had no idea what the computer password was because the new Dictator locked me out of everything technology related because she claimed I was "incompetent". If there are passwords, I left the list with the lying Business Manager. The Business Manager I thought was my friend.
Betrayal ripped through me. I'd been ignoring other office staff who would Facebook me to tell me that my friend was badmouthing me. I dismissed all the claims that she and several others were blaming all the office problems on me. I thought they were my friends. I'd been protecting them for years. I'd been buying them lunch and helping their kids with homework. I thought....
Oh boy was I wrong.
No one believed me. No one believed that I hadn't sabotaged Hell on my way out. No one offered sympathy. No one said anything about a going away party. No one sad anything at all. I even tried contacting my friend about things. She had handed in her resignation the same day I did. Turned out she was still working there. They assured her changes would happen and things would improve. Turns out I was right all along... they were trying to drive me out.
The hilarious part is that in November Hell contacted me. They needed help with a fundraiser they were knee deep in. I was hugely offended. Yep, that's how they work. Only demand assistance when they need something. I cried for an hour after that phone call. And the worst part of it? They had the only person left that I would have answered for do the calling.
I don't answer the phone anymore.
