I’m sorry, I don’t have a square to spare.

That’s hilarious! I’m so glad he isn’t scared by tampons, definitely a true man. The first time my boyfriend and I had sex I was on my period and he said a true man never cares about a little blood

Man people here don’t get it.

Should you have vented to your skip? Prob not. There’s better ways to approach. But there’s NO WAY your feedback was the sole reason your boss was fired. Not a chance. You said it yourself. Your boss had performance problems. Now if they had indicated medical problems then the company may be in legal hot water for firing her. But frankly she probably was not doing great all the way around and it was over for her. If it wasn’t your feedback it woulda been someone else’s.

And people don’t seem to understand OP was getting run over before she was fired. OP maybe was naive but definitely the victim. And now they’re bringing in people who are poor managers and ruining morale and performance even worse.

This is a blessing in disguise. Both you and your old boss are going to get better roles.

You might reach out and say that you think she was screwed over and now you’re being screwed over.

Others have said never to talk to the skip because they aren’t there to help you. This is false and immature. THIS SPECIFIC skip may be horrible but indeed a skip manager tends to try to get feedback to validate or invalidate things they already know. My skip asks me about my manager all the time. And my manager asks my directs about me. It’s supposed to be extremely constructive. And as long as you approach it this way, it will be.

Your skip was looking to be a hatchet man. You didn’t cause that.

Good grief. It’s a funny story to tell in the moment. I was hoping some would get a laugh out of it. I assure you I’m able to figure it out.

That's a landmine not worth carrying. It set off prematurely. Consider it luck so stay away

Unfortunately, you may need to compensate by working more hours for less. You should, however, be sending out 5+ CVs a day at this point to anywhere hiring your skillset, as a backup.

Regardless of what led you here, I hope you manage to get sorted quickly, sounds like a terrible business to work for.

Go to her and say you're sorry and it was a typo, that's all you can do.

If she's not gonna let you live it down it's not your fault. >!elephants never forget I had to do it and i dont care!<

Sockless

It’s crazy that people can have shit that effects them outside of work I don’t think you saw your boss as a person

I thought if that but they are my favorite oair

Get In the shower and use the water.

I took some comical liberties in the telling of my story.

Dispose of my shame.

Dog, you're home alone. What are you a child? Literally all you have to do is find some toilet paper, if you had none take a shower and scrub your ass real good, it's that simple.

This isn't TIFU it's Today I realize I'm actually stupid.

Couldnt have been that close a friend/ insecurity is a bitch.

A couple months ago, I was out of commission (if you get my drift), and boyf was a bit frisky so he jumped in the shower with me. I went to grab something and he jumped at the chance ....

I jumped a mile and told him I had a tampon in.

The next ten minutes was us both laughing our arses off while he was digging around trying to grab the tampon he'd entirely squashed against my insides.

It was hilarious and so embarrassing!

No you’re just a person who cant see other than black and white. It was only manipulation if he didn’t admit he was wrong which he did. Your definition of abuse is obscured very heavily by hive mind all knowing reddit. And you have no argument except screaming bloody murder. Look how many upvotes i got… youre downvoted it should clearly tell you something. Maybe you were a victim of real abuse so you have ptsd or something which would be valid

Again, I grew up in a not only verbally but physically abusive house. There’s no way I would have let my sister get literally nothing on her birthday while I had a huge party and a cake. I also would have made damn sure to apologize to her and wish her a happy birthday. Her entire family not bothering to wish her a happy birthday is really fucked up, and a 15 year old is old enough to say “happy birthday” to her twin. And if you re-read it, she clearly says she’s not close with her twin and hopes she reads it, as in hopes her twin can maybe bother to recognize that what’s she’s doing is wrong.
