I think i may have betrayed a coworker..... I do have a strong moral code with principles but i think i may have backstabbed a former boss.Basically this boss was a lass who was responsible for getting me promoted she put a good word in for me (because i manipulated her into liking me, pretty easy she was dumb) and uhhh well. Now she came to work in my department.. but.. i find her annoying.. and other coworkers find her annoying too.. so i complained about her to 2 managers.... i made a case for why she should be demoted and one of the mangers even agreed with me because for some reason im really good at speaking and convincing people (it scares me sometimes as if im like code geass) anyway. I feel bad.She was a bad person.. just obnoxious and getting in the way of my work by disrupting my workflow with her chit chating.. Im sorry former boss san... its just uhh..You know right in an office no one is really friends anyway. Lets not be children about it. You got in my way, and i had to do what had to be done.Its sad because she obviously heard it was me who complained about her and was sulking for the rest of the day.But now comes the confusing part... partly i feel bad, but also partly i had to stop myself from laughing see how fucking mean i am and pathetically she was sulking.. it did make me sadistically smile a bit more than id like for which im ashamed.... they helped me and all i did in return was backstab them?Am i a judas like person? I fucking hope not... I would not have betrayed jesus. Coworkers are different. Its brutal out there.And i do feel guilt..Am i bad person for this?
Basically you fucked up, but only minorly. The better way to handle this would have been to manipulate in a positive direction. Propose a position that sounds better but offers fewer responsibilities. Or put her in a position where she can learn the skills the lacks here. Caring about workflow isn't a purely selfish interest. You could make a case that she is genuinely in the wrong position and she previously was in the right position as a boss rather than coworker. And btw, even from a selfish perspective it's better for cultivating longterm relationships by positive manipulation. You gain power by giving power to others. Then they owe you favors instead of holding grudges.
>>42985126you're sort of a bad person but not terrible. it is crazy that people like you exist, i have to remember to keep my guard up, im to passive and trusting people like you are going sneak up on me.
>>42985126Stop talking about things like you have no agency it is grating
>>42985610ask harlot about it
>>42985610OP is a manmoder rapey racist who made jokes about a mentally ill woman’s rape as a child.
>>42985610I can tell already that your psychological guard would not work on me. It is unfortunate but some people are just meant to be manipulated. Fortunately I don't know you.>>42985204Yea yea yea i could have manipulated in that way but that would have taken longer. I guess its what people would call soft power by doing what you said. What I did was more aggressive and direct, hard power. They almost certainly hate my guts now, but the trade off is that other co workers have respected me 200% more since they realized how ruthless I am even to people who have been nothing but kind to me.Its a fuck or be fucked world at the end of the day and soft power is well.. just soft. I dont regret what I did anymore.
