I said some very mean things about my former boss. I admit that I’m angry at her for the years of crap she put me through. We didn’t get along. Now that she’s gone I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders but there are times where I flair up with anger at her. She was very much loved in the community which is in contrast to what a horrible person she was to me. It’s like a “dirty secret” that you stay a victim of this person’s bullying and everyone else pretends like the bully was a saint. So that’s why I told the truth about how I was bullied by her. But I also feel awful because it’s not right to slander another person. I don’t want to sink to her level. I also don’t want to paint a picture of myself as bitter. I love my job. I love my new boss. This isn’t me!
This is why I’m confessing it all. I want to let it off my chest and move on.
