She got promoted into the job as there’s no one else available (She’s been with the company for 10 years while I have been only been working here for 2 years). As part to the “bargain” to seal the deal of her taking over the Manager position, her relatives had to be given the boot. I can totally see where this is coming from the relatives are nice bunch but they don’t pull their weight when it comes to work and are quite frequently sick and their departure gives her full reign to be the major bitch that she is.

She micro manages and her perspective is totally out of line with a normal person. She gives vague instructions and if a problem occurs it is because we did not listen to her???! She’s away from taking any responsibility but if something good happens, she will vie for full credit. She is stingy but only on others, we are expected to DIY any repairs ourselves while she gets to splurge on luxuries in the name of Company.

Her idea of a gift to you is to either claim it from the Company or to give you discount vouchers that someone else passed to her and that she does not want it.
