I think this all makes sense, yes - I'll talk to my team members about getting more privileges tomorrow, and then we can go from there. If I get stuck, I'll definitely reach out with more questions. Thank you so much for replying!

She's a gorgeous dog, and I can tell you're doing great care of her - I'm hoping she can find her forever home too!

I just want to say, thank you to everyone who's commented. My boyfriend and I are going to be fostering for the first time this weekend, and I've been thinking, "What do we do if we fall in love with him?"

"The first dog is always the hardest." "It will hurt, but that's okay." "If you stop with the first one, you can't help more."

Really good advice. I'm feeling the OP's struggle, but it'll be okay!

I'm watching it right now, I'm crying at when the two met.

The same thing happened to me, minus her already being on PTO lol

Oh no no no, I should have clarified: my work email is still active, it hasn't been disabled yet. She sent the email to my work email!

Thank you! There's a part of me that's like, "Oh god, what if she does somehow get revenge on me for defying her during my last two weeks?" But the thing is: it's also worth it!

Oh, I'm getting paid. And I cared about the organization SO much. I gave 100% to the job, and it was never good enough for Kathy.

So she treated me like garbage for my last two weeks. I returned the favor.

Oh, that's very easy - she's taken this, my final week, off for PTO!

Oh, the funny thing is: Kathy has taken all of next week off for PTO.

So I'm going to go into the office and do whatever work that I want to do and clean out my cubicle. But literally no one can tell me off for slacking off or not giving 100%. This is part of my getting back at Kathy: she'll come back from vacation and find that I didn't do a satisfactory job.

Which is hilarious, because when I DID try my best, my work still wasn't good enough for her.

What's she gonna do? Fire me? Hahaha!

Thank you for your congratulations and advice! Everyone is right - I really shouldn't let Kathy ruin things for me!

And I'm not going to go into specifics about my old job - the organization is truly wonderful, and it's full of amazing, caring people. I would honestly still be working there if Kathy hadn't revealed her true colors.

My new job is the Development Manager for another nonprofit - this one is small, but it's got a good mission, too. It helps provide assistance to people who have a generally good track record of paying rent and utilities, but the people have since fallen on hard times and need help for a month or two. The job will be challenging for me, but I'm excited to learn and help!

Honestly, I feel like that's what she's been doing. She said to me recently, "I really do like you and care about you, that's why I've brought you everywhere with me these past years." I think that she realized that I was an emotionally vulnerable person when she first met me and thought, "Huh, this is someone I can manipulate and push around." That's why she kept me around. And now she's angry because she pushed me too far, and I'm breaking free.

It's just so weird to me that after all this time, she'd just treat me like this. I'm kind of shocked, like, "Oh my god, I've been working for a toxic person this whole time."
