That’s Crazy

          groomed a Hispanic female to follow in his footprints. She had been

          thrown in with the sharks.

               When  I  started  working  for  this  company,  my  immediate

          supervisor and the Hispanic female were on an equal level. The owner

          promoted the Hispanic female over my supervisor, and she became
          the first female Vice President.


               My immediate supervisor did not like the Hispanic female and did
          not want to have anything to do with her after her promotion. The

          new Vice President did not have the time to deal with my immediate
          supervisor's attitude and began to bypass her to work with me directly.

          My immediate supervisor did not realize she was giving her power
          away by not dealing with the new sheriff in town.


               The new vice president understood she had to grow our area to
          compete with the white boys who were doing their best to make sure

          she failed. She had no time to play and my first order by the New Vice
          President  was  to  create  an  operational  manual  for  our  growing

          conference department. My immediate supervisor did not know of my
          new task and I had to keep it undercover. I had hired another sister

          under me, whom my immediate supervisor did not like either. My

          immediate supervisor would get mad at the staff and go in her office
          and shut the door and not speak to anyone. I believe she just did not
          have the skills or know-how to manage a division and the owner and

          the new Vice President knew we had to put systems in place because

          we were growing in leaps and bounds.
