not fat or happy

In addition to being an abusive, paranoid, micromanaging task-master, my boss is also a narcissist, which means everything is about her.  A few months after I started working for her, she gifted me a green faux-suede handbag.  I used it a few times until I realized the bag was shedding green bits all over my clothing.  My boss was clearly pleased that I liked the bag enough to use it, so one day she decided to take the gift-giving a step further.  She called me into her office and proceeded to tell me for the umpteenth time how she lost 25 pounds last summer and intended to keep it off.  She even turned around so that I might admire her figure.  She then told me that she had clothing that was too big for her, including a nice green jacket that would match the lovely green bag she gave me.  And since I was “broader” than she, perhaps I’d want it? 
 
I was so stunned I couldn’t speak, so I went back to my desk and stood there for a moment.  I became dizzy and nauseous, so I went to the bathroom to collect my thoughts/cry/vomit.  Suddenly I became calm and knew what to do.  I went to human resources, told them what happened, and with their blessing, walked out without saying a word.  I then took a nice, relaxing 4-day weekend.  When I returned to work on Monday morning, my boss acted as though nothing had happened, but I knew she had been spoken to. 
 
In the end, my boss refuses to acknowledge this ever happened, and yes, I have brought it up.  But, she’s learned to keep her comments to herself, and she’s stopped trying to ply me with cheap gifts, opting instead for straight cash. –Submitted by Kate, New York City
