In this second series:

"She stormed out of the meeting room"

I came to the office and walked to her room. As always she was seated right in front of her desktop just staring at the monitor, I walked in greeted her a good morning and went straight to the matter at hand.

She was looking me for that morning, and after my quick conversation with her on what the direction for the organisation is, it was another heavy *day for me and I was still at home trying to push myself to get to the office ASAP. I guess that short-circuited a fuse in her head, and got her to push my button or perhaps it was just another 'low-blow' from her but, looking back now, I guess that was push that I needed.

So I was seated in her room, she was facing me this time and it seemed like she was open to discuss. I opened my mouth and listed down my grievances. I had her attention and she seemed to be nodding with empathy. I was done, it was her turn. She began by highlighting the importance of punctuality. Okay, that was understood, I was wrong for being late, I acknowledged her point and apologised. I guess I was trying to steer back to my points so I asked her "what about work delivery?".

She opened her mouth to agree but, went on with her speech on punctuality. It felt like I was slapped in the face with... reality and I could hear the sound of 'trust' shattering. I gave her a chance to change my mind about her and there she was proving me right. She is manipulative, delusional and outright USELESS to the organisation. She did not address any of my points and there she was claiming that she cares about the people under her. To that date, there was nothing that she has done that showed she cared. She was quick to punish, but not to reward.
