Okay! So I've learned yesterday that the girl I really dislike at work did not pass the Behavioral Exam which is the first step to undergo a Training for a Supervisory post. I know it's not right for me to be happy because of what happened to her but that's what I really feel.
She did not do anything wrong to me. I don't like her because of what she did to one of my closest girl friends at work. I'm already a Supervisor in our company and I think that was the only reason she did not harm me.
I have a friend who should have been a Supervisor already but she just remained a POC. It was because of that girl. She is very pretty. Pretty is not the right word to use. She is more than that. She is gorgeous. She used that to stop the promotion of my friend. She had an affair with our Boss and because she hates my friend so much she did everything to influence the decision of our Boss. Then, their affair was disclosed so our Boss decided to resign. She stayed in the company.
When our Boss has resigned he was replaced by another Manager and this gave way for my friend to be given another chance. She eventually got promoted. Then the girl who had an affair with our previous Boss also took the exam and asked for endorsement from our Manager to apply for the vacant position for Supervisor. She was given an endorsement. However, she failed the exam. Our Manager and Assistant Manager talked to her yesterday and told her that she will have to wait for another year to take again the exam. It means she will be a POC for one year just like my friend. She can't accept it so she passed an immediate resignation letter. Well, all I can say is that karma really works. We did not even do anything to put her in that situation. It just happened. How ironic!! What she did to my friend is now happening to her.

yes i truly believe in karma. a lot of people may ignore that fact coz they are still busy and happy with their life. but somehow once karma will hit you no matter how far you can reach you will totally shutdown to the ground leaving nothing not even a friend. thats why with what my ex bf did to me, leaving me while pregnant and no job. i just get tired looking for him. since i know somehow, maybe not now but someday the biggest karma will hit him more painful than what i have right now. coz in whatever you do the karma will hit you back twice even more than that.

Hi homeshoppers!
That is true! I also believe in karma. Eventually once your ex- boyfriend has met his bad karma he will remember what he did to you. I know he would also regret what he did. Be strong for your baby and your self. I have a lot of girl friends who are single parents so I know it's hard. However, they always tell me that it's better than to settle with an a$$H073 and be miserable everyday. Take care!

I do believe in karma too... and there's a saying that goes.. "If you point one finger to anybody or anything, there will always be three fingers pointing back at you". This implies that every deed be it be good or bad, attracts similar reaction which may multiply in its return. In the case of your former office mate, what she did to your friend resulted to 3 unfavorable effects on her..1-not getting the position she desired, 2-she lost her job, 3- go over the hassles of finding a new job and starting all over again.

The scariest thing about karma is that when it gets back not to you but to your loved ones or the people you care. That's the reason I'm scared to do anything bad to other people as I don't want the same thing to happen to the people who are very important to me.

Hi Namiya,
Good day!
I agree with you on that part. Just thinking that it might happen to any of the people I consider important and I love give me second thoughts on doing something bad to other people. However, I don't know why there are still some people who seems not to care about other people's welfare as long as they get what they want.

I'd say it's all right feel that way. It may be bad to feel happy for someone else's mishaps but she really deserved it. That was very evil of her to stop a fellow employee from progress so that she could get promoted (and thank goodness did not happen). Crab mentality is so wrong. Thank goodness karma gave justice to your friend. I hope this whole incident would give that woman a lot to think about.

Whoa, she even did that? She truly is evil 
Among all the bad karma she got, it's truly nice to see the good karma that happened to those she did wrong, like your friend got the Supervisor position she wanted and your husband who is now a trainer.

Yes she did that. I always believe that human is naturally good so I did not think at first that she was the one who did those things. My husband and I even fought about it as I told him that he needs to act professionally regarding what happened. I even told him that he is not even sure that the reason his apprenticeship did not push through was that girl. My husband was so mad at the Management during that time that he even wanted to resign. He is hot- headed and I'm always the one telling him not to decide when he is mad.

I hope she learns her lesson. Thinking of what happened to her right now it made me realized that maybe it has happened to teach her a lesson. Because of her one of our male Supervisors who was nice got suspended and was transferred to another Department. My husband is also mad at her at what she did way back when my husband was still a regular staff. My husband was promoted as a Trainer Apprentice. That girl was still a Trainer in our Department during that time. She does not like my husband so what she did was she dissolved my husband's apprenticeship and my husband went back to being a regular staff/ employee.
Then, her next target was to be a Supervisor. She left the Trainer post and became a Supervisor Apprentice while our old Manager is still in position. When our old Manager left and was replaced by the new one my husband applied for the vacant post for Trainer and he got the position. So now, that girl cannot be a Supervisor and can no longer go back to being a Traier because my husband already got the post. It's really amazing how karma works. I just hope that this event will make her a better person and will make her realize her mistakes.

I truly believe in karma and what goes around comes around. That is why I choose to live my life without creating bad karma. I live by the motto, "do onto others as you wish them to do too you." If you live by this motto you will not end up with bad karma. You are putting out only good karma. I don't know this person but I'm glad she received the bad karma so fast. Many people don't get the bad karma thrown at them so fast. Hopefully she will learn from her mistake and next time do the right thing.@Ladyslipper (1327)

I also live the same way. I always believe in the saying, "Do unto others what you want others to do unto you!" I know Im not a perfect person but I can proudly say that I have never did anything to destroy someone's life or harm anyone. I always make sure that in everything I do I will not violate other people's right.

Yes. Karma is a b*tch. =) I also believe in karma. Actually, my whole family does, along with my boyfriend. That is why I don't do to others what I don't want to happen to myself. Sometimes, karma happens immediately. Sometimes though, it is a long time coming, like a few months or years.

You are right that it sometimes happens immediately but sometimes it takes a long time to happen. However, the end result is just the same. Karma strikes to those people who did something really bad to other people and made other people's life miserable.

Karma is a very powerful force that can't really be messed with. We must do the most good possible in this world and to each other in order for bad karma not to reach us. I had a friend that was a player. He used to be with different women every month and left broken hearts along the way. Well about a year later he lost his job and now owe thousands of dollars in child support. I feel it is our duty as human beings to do good in the world and for other people so bad karma could be extinguished once and for all.

Hi, ladyslipper, it's natural and reasonable that you feel in this way, though it's not good indeed.
Though sometimes karma comes so late, and it makes us so disappointed. I believe everything is fair. So never try to do anything to hurt others. Like you said, you do nothing. It's fine!
I think your friend was so suffering before. But congratulations that she got promotion finally!

She really suffered emotionally before. She lost confidence on her leadership and people skills. She thinks the reason she got promoted was that because there is something wrong with her. She even though of resigning. I'm glad she stayed and remained strong. :)

hi ladyslipper theres an old saying I really like as its so true
what goes around comes around. I was walking across the street
'as fast as I could seeing my left leg was newly in a brace. this
'impatient young man in the red convertible yells at me cannot you
walk any faster old lady, I replied, look the walk light is green,
I have the right away, dont you dare, and the idiot swooshed his red
'car around me almost hitting me and made the turn. I walked on up the street towards the library where I worked, there was the red car even with the walkway with a traffic cop writing out a citation. the cop called to me, Miss, oh I loved that at 83, come over here please.so I hurried over to him, and he pointed to the angry man in the rec convertible. is this the man who nearly hit you in the cross walk? I nodded and said,yes he was angry with me for being in the crosswalk,he wanted to run t he redlight and he sure did. so what goes around comes around. The gorgeous bietch tried to stop your friends promotion but it came back and bite her in the butt. Good on her. she even resigned. Glad for your friend she has a chance now. good luck.

Hi Hatley!
That young man is so rude. If he is my son I'd teach him a lesson and spank him in public even if he is already on his twenties. He is not a child anymoe to be tolerated. He already knows what is wrong and right so I know he knew what he did to you was worng. I'd be embarassed if I have a son like that. I hope my boy will grow with the same respect that I have for our elders as that's how I was groomed by my parents.
I had almost the same experience as yours. I had experience this a lot of times. When it rains there would usually be puddles of water near the sidewalks and then sometimes when I'm walking a car will pass by and would not even slow down and would just swoooosssh! There you are splashed all over with water and worst if it's a murky water or muddy. I had experienced this a lot of times. Those people are so inconsiderate.

Oh that ex co-worker of yours is bad... I mean really bad not just in a sense of influencing your former boss not to promote your friend but having an affair with him that even had your bossed forced to resign. I thought this things just happens in movies. But yes, I do believe in karma. I'm actually afraid of it so I try my best to be good to others, always.
But you know what, my former boss who is a Chinese said to me once that, Chinese people do not believe in karma. He says, that it's only in the mind and that if things happened you made it happen. I don't know if all Chinese have the same idea but I thought of sharing it to you anyways.
Ciao!

I have a Chinese heritage as my grandfather is a Chinese. :) Well, it happens so it means these things also happens in real life. That girl even has the nerve to be close to our Boss' wife and 6 year ol daugther. Aha! She was very close to the family. I actually wonder if the wife is not sensing anyhting at all. That's impossible.

There is different types of Karma, such as thought Karma. If you ever seen the Secret DVD thoughts become things, so if you think about something you want or don't want, it's going to happen. So let's say you did an Anti-War program, then it would just lead to more war. Then you should think about peace, not the things you don't want.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think what you meant here has something to do also or is the same as the "Power of the Mind." They say that our mind has the power to let things happen. Let's say for example if you think that you might be late tomorrow as you will wake up early and you feel lazy to go to work then, you would really wake up late and will also be late for work. :)
