Found out yesterday that a manager that hates me is extremely demoralized, currently job hunting, and already tried to quit.

Earlier this month, I found out that a different manager, who in the past tried to get me fired, themselves tried to resign at the beginning of the year. That manager's contract is up in August and their department is failing on just about every metric imaginable so, they're likely going to quit or be asked to resign at that point.

Finally, a coworker who was working with that second manager to try and get me fired was themselves fired by corporate for a multitude of reasons. These reasons include but are not limited to: credible accusations of drunk driving company vehicles, harassing and bullying others, offering cocaine to both coworkers and clients, and allegedly attempting to extort someone else out of their job... which is a felony (we're currently encouraging their victim to go to authorities, but it involves leaked nudes and they are understandably embarrassed about the whole thing... which is their decision, no one can force them). This fired coworker once told a whole room of people "well if [TrueStoryBob] and I both walk into the GM's office, who do you think is gonna walk out with a job." Well, we can now definitively say it was them who would walk out of that office unemployed. They had to be forced off company property; like physically escorted onto the sidewalk by the GM and the Business Manager.

All of this has legitimately put a pep in my step. Overall, I like my job, however I was already putting my CV out there just in case. Now, I can stop the job search and not worry about potentially having to move as I also like where I live. By the way, my manager is an absolute dream who's been watching these other two departments burn to the ground with unadulterated glee as both of these managers walk ass backwards into their own demise.
