During lunch, she began complaining about my former co-workers, and I began to remembering why I hadn’t missed her.
She was a horrible person to work with. And I had to kiss her butt daily in order to avoid the wrath of her self righteousness. And, if I didn’t, she would complain about me to my manager. So, rather than confront her, I played the peace keeper and hoped that she would just leave me alone.
When she announced that she was retiring, she told me that I would miss her. And she was right. I missed her about as much as I missed a boil on my butt. In short, I rejoiced when she retired.
