At my part - time work, I simply hate this manager lady, she thought she is better than everyone, and on occasion, whenever she feels like, she will scold people without any good reason, and she simply try to come up something to point out that is your fault and that is her fault. We all hate to talk to her, even though sometimes to pretend to be friendly. We knew who she is, and we simply want to get away from her. Yesterday, she was complaining the packing in the kitchen, then the owner of the restaurant get fed up with her complaints about this and that, and gave her a big scold. While I was there, I was laughing out inside, and like to see her get kick in the butt. Is this bad, to see someone get stumped? I don't know, but it feels good to see her get scolded like that, that just something we wish to see.

I think this is appropriate, I knew some managers in the past who were like this. They either ended up loosing all their staff, or loosing their jobs. I know my manager right now is similar to this, and everyone hates their jobs,and want nothing to do with her.

My supervisor before would always make me feel that I lack the confidence to do my job. Then one time, she called me for a meeting with our Manager (her boss) to discuss how did I make the recruit's statistic report. I walk through the numbers & have mention how each column play in making the report. I was praised by the manager while my supervisor was ridicule for not knowing how to explain the report. It feels good because I felt that I have done a great job.

If i were on your place I also know how it feels to be dealing with superior acting people.
So whether in private or public, I may not want them to be scolded but for sure I want them to learn their lesson and know they can be wrong sometimes and not forever perfect. So at least they should be a little gentle sometimes to their staff.

Ahh..I thought it was just a plain hatred but after reading your post, I totally understand you. Now she feels how it is being in your situation. It's just right for her, maybe now she realize the golden rule: do not do to others if you don't want others do it to you.

Oh there are these type of people who seemed to exude with so much pride and they act as if they know everything and the truth is, when they speak of what they say they know... it would only prove of their ignorance. :D I guess you just have to wait for him/her to be shown whatever it is so he'd learn his lesson. God bless and see you around and happy mylotting!

SMH, LOL!! Now did you really have to be laughing inside? I totally understand when someone gets what they deserve, and we think, it's about time. I don't know if I would have been laughing inside or not. Depends on how serious I thought the situation was.

You should be patient, as long as we are still working on other people, things like that very likely to happen again. Laugh when she had hard time ?? umm... I think it is very normal if you do that, because she is too often hurt you.
For the solution, it will be more better and fun if you became entrepreneurs, so you will own your business and become the boss, so that you will avoid instances like this anymore.

Life is like that and we are all human! Of course I feel good when the
people that I hate got scolded. However, the 'feel good' feeling is
just temporary, later I do feel bad for her. No one likes to be scolded.
Sometimes, these people are so annoying and likes to scold others. We wish
they will experience the same, to taste it and understand it. Hoping
they will change for better ....if they learned!

At first, I thought you were talking physically and if that was so then I would say it would be wrong to think like that. Reading your post though I realize you are talking verbally (correct me if I am wrong here), if it is verbally then all I have to say is that she got a taste of her own medicine and I don't see anything wrong with that. You treat people like how you want to be treated. So if you behave in such a way to blame everyone, then when it turns around on you, you shouldn't have even an ounce of problem.

We are human, so we practically just blurt out the instant we see a person that we hate to be put in hot water. But as Christian, we should feel sorry for that person and should not be thinking of bad things befall others.

I think it is normal to feel happy whenever a person who gets too abusive of her power gets her just "payback". I am not saying we should be happy about someone else's weakness, nor we should wish ill of someone else, but if that person needs to be put in her place, then I guess we should be glad that she is getting some lessons through a higher authority. We can just hope that she will learn from it and improve her nasty attitude.
