After I broke up with my last serious(kind of) girlfriend in 2008, she became a raging, psycho bitch instead of the whiny, clingy, desperate type that she was, when she was trying to plan OUR wedding and the number of kids we would have before our second date even started.
That was why I dumped her ass anyway. I needed my f~~~ing space and the bitch just so happened to live down the street from the Retail store I worked, and she kept coming in every f~~~ing 30 minutes and interfering with my job duties in her desperate need for attention. At first my supervisors thought she was a regular customer and thought nothing about it when she was asking them where I could be found(“Give the customer what they want” is the store’s motto, especially during the Great Recession when my store was hard-up for paying customers), but then they began realizing that whatever s~~~ she wanted to talk about wasn’t company or sales-related with me, so they began asking me to not let her talk to me so much.
3 weeks of this s~~~ was all I could handle. Then I just f~~~ing snapped and told the bitch that we were DONE, and to NEVER see me again.
The very next day, she storms into the store, demands to see my store manager, and told him some c~~~-and-bulls~~~ story about how 10 minutes earlier, she was just trying to “talk to me and say how much she loved me” and that I “assaulted her and pushed her down in the parking lot where I was picking up trash.” She demanded that I should be fired or that she would press charges. Yes. FIRED. Hell, the bitch was unemployed, as was at least half the county, so what better revenge then to get me canned from my own job when there were 25-30 applicants for every job opening there happened to be in my city at this time?
Luckily, my store manager wasn’t stupid. He asked her when this happened and she said about 10 minutes ago. He asked her WHY I would be on the clock and picking up garbage in the parking lot when it was my DAY OFF on that particular day? She was speechless, and then he reminded her that he has store security cameras posted all over the parking lot, that there would be NO PROOF of this accusation, and he said he doesn’t appreciate having a smear campaign and false accusations being thrown against one of his “best workers” and demanded that she leave the store immediately. She left the store pitching a fit like a 2-year old throwing a tantrum.
When I came back to work at 9AM the next day, the store manager calls me in his office, sits me down, and tells me this entire story. I was not only grateful for my boss standing up for me like this, but I was infuriated, red-faced, and shaking with anger at this bulls~~~ revenge technique she tried to pull just to destroy my employment status. The manager obviously understood how I was feeling because he told me to take 30 minutes to sit in the break room to relax, and gave me a dollar to buy one of my favorite sodas from the vending machine.
I never saw that bitch again. And I think she knew what I was capable of doing to her after I found out about her attempt to get me fired. After all, Retail employees have been fired before because of false accusations and lies from a customer, and all because “the customer is always right” and the store never wants to lose their business, and would prefer firing an employee in order to save some money by having one less employee to pay, and make some more from the supposedly-offended customer who had the complaint in the first place.
But that’s another story.
