Of course, the micromanager’s assumption that the author was at fault here was based on zero evidence. She seems to be the kind of employer who needs a specific something or someone to blame when anything does not go her way. Blaming a delay like this on the postal system is a bit too broad for someone like her. She needed a scapegoat, and unfortunately, the author just so happened to be that person.
While we wish that the employee did not have to endure her manager’s unnecessary outburst, it’s a good thing that the employee responded by vowing to always have her own back in case something like this were to happen again. Inevitably, it did happen again.
When there was another upcoming event that required the author to mail out invitations, she made sure to cover her tracks and keep receipts so that there was absolutely no way she could be blamed this time around.
