A toxic boss can make even the best job unbearable.

The following story involves an employee who was fired by her narcissistic manager who would constantly gaslight and undermine her work.

She already had a feeling that something was off, so she kind of expected that it would end up this way.

But no matter how prepared she felt, it was still a difficult experience to have dealt with a toxic boss.

Read the full story below for all the details.

It finally happened.

My narcissistic manager fired me yesterday. I knew it was coming. I could feel it for the past few weeks.

I have been applying for jobs but have not gotten any calls. The job market sucks.

I am ecstatic that I never have to see her ever again.

I have never been so relieved about anything in my life.

This employee’s boss would intentionally humiliate her.

I was the director of a production facility. She gaslit the crap out of me.

She would say one thing. Then, when I had my team do it, she would say, “No, I said this.” She did it to make it look like I messed up.

Of course, I had no proof because she never put anything in writing. Even if I emailed asking for confirmation, she would walk over to my desk and would give it verbally.

She undermined me at every turn. It got to the point that I stopped giving input completely. I just became a shell of myself.

She thinks her boss is a disgusting monster.

She is an absolute monster.

I have more than half a mind to out her to ownership, but I know that would be useless.

She will be the downfall of that company. She is a horrible human.

She talks about the staff as though they are sub-humans. It is disgusting.

Getting fired usually stings, but in this case, it sounds like an unexpected win.

No one should have to deal with that level of manipulation and constant undermining, especially from a manager.

Hopefully, this gives OP the opportunity to find something better and healthier for her to thrive in.
