Jeez Kaleena, I'm so sorry about that. All I can say is I know how you feel. I went through something very similar with a coworker/friend recently. It sucks, to say the least.

I know what you're going through Sugar. My daughters aunt used to be my bff, along with a cousin of mine. We were pretty tight. In one day the friendship was over, and I barely spoke to her for 15 years after that, same goes for my cousin. It does feel like your heart gets broken, along with the trust. I've noticed that a lot of workplaces you end up dealing with a lot of rumor and gossip, but what she's done is just, beyond words. It's sad she used to you to make herself look better, hopefully people will realize that. What a small, sad person she must be. If I were you, I wouldn't let her make you feel embarrassed for things she has repeated. Move on, and don't look back. Who knows, maybe the absence of her two-faced self will improve your life and you'll end up happier. *hugs*

Thanks for the kind words guys, I put in my notice last thursday and my boss completely understood why saying he knows things have been made difficult for me and that even on the business side of things she acted pretty unprofessional.
At this point all I can think is whatever. I'm done stressing out about this.
Now, the next three weeks working here will be "interesting" to say the least.

Late to the convo but for what it is worth I am sorry Sugar. Sounds like you are making the best decision for you.

I have to whine a little bit right now. Tomorrow is my daughters high school graduation. I don't have a lot of close family, I have 2 sisters and a dad. No aunts or uncles. One sister lives out of state and has two special needs kids who are still in school. So she is unable to make the trip back. I totally understand, and didn't expect her to be here. My other sister lives about 4 hours away and had planned on being here. First she decided not to bring the baby since he doesn't do well in the car. Then they wouldn't be able to stay over night, and now their baby sitter has backed out. So now they won't be here. My dad has never ever been a part of any sort of gathering in the last 20 years, so he won't be here. I have a lot of extended family through great aunt and uncles, lots of long time friends. But none of them will be here, and I didn't expect them to be and that's ok. So it's a little bitter sweet, and I'm a little bit pissy. Thankfully my daughter has family on her dads side that will be here. Other wise it would just be me, my oldest daughter and granddaughter. Her dad is unable to make the trip from Fl. which already bummed my kid out. She doesn't know yet that my sister won't be here. I dread telling her.

Congrats on your daughter's graduation! I understand you wanted more people to be there to celebrate this special occasion for and with her and I am sure she is bummed about her Dad not being there. On the flip side it sounds like she will have quite a few people there who care and love her! Sure she will be ok and enjoy her day!

I survived graduation. Tomorrow I sleep. Aryns grampa, her brother, her aunt and uncle and cousin were able to make it. So glad she had them today.

I'm not sick, thankfully. But the fall I took w/ a St. Bernard in March, and another injury a few weeks later hasn't healed. I went back to the Dr. and he determined I have torn cartilage. Rest, ice, anti-inflammatory, blah blah. But having no pto or sick days, and a lot of crap to do this summer, and short staffed, I can't take time off! So I am trying to be careful. In July I'm heading back out to Red Rocks for another concert.... I have to be able to walk! Getting old sucks.

So, strange developments in my whole Job/Former BFF situation. I left two weeks ago my official last day was a thursday). Boss called me up next morning and asked that if my former BFF wasn't working there any longer by the time I got back from my vacation in Dominican Republic would I consider coming back? So THAT was unexpected. Turns out, they found she had been majorly slacking on work the few days she was in the office (supposedly working part time from home since she was a new mom) because she had been spending most of her time looking for a new job, she had lied about her hours while on leave so instead of working about 2-3 hrs 3-4 days a week she was putting in for full 40hr weekdays and apparently a bunch of other stuff the boss was too pissed to tell me about.
So today is my first day back (she was let go late last week) and everyone else here is very happy I'm back here because they said I'm the one they knew got work done! Its a nice feeling. Plus I got a little bonus because the boss finally realized how much of the workload I was carrying (closer to 90%) and she lied about.
I am not speaking with her because if her betrayal, and I feel better about not having to stress out about her. I am a little worried about trying to fix all her mistakes and get caught up with the last two weeks I've been gone, but well...Karma works in mysterious ways I guess.

Good riddance to that chick.

It's so nice to see she got what she deserved. She is so not worth your time and worry. The boss knows there is a mess to clean up, so I wouldn't worry about it. Just do what you can!

It's really refreshing and wonderful when karma works like it's supposed to. Very glad for you Kaleena!
