    This kinda happened to me back in the nineties.

    A former manager, no longer with our company, got word that I was interviewing for a new job.

    She took it upon herself to call my then current manager to inform him that I was looking for a job.

    To this he responded that not only was he aware of the situation, but he had helped refer me and and was facilitating the process because my wife had just gotten pregnant, the new job was double the income, and I was gonna need that, and he was happy for me.

    I still fantasize about bringing severe misfortune to that woman.

        Nah. While I’ve got zero desire to associate with my ex-wife in any way, shape, or form, we are both substantially different people today than the petulant selfish people we both were when we split up. I wish no ill will toward her.
