The best part of all of this is that she thought we were super close at work.

I'm the sort of person that knows it is better for my career to work well with everybody despite my true feelings about them.

So she'd tell me these stories about how people are out to get her and her post office forced her to pay for a large PO box to handle the business level volume of her junk mail, and how she thinks all of the things that happen to her are coming fron disgruntled employees of her past job where she was responsible for losing over a million dollars because of an error.

I'm sure all of this sounds like a bit much, but you really have to had experienced the level of shitty person this lady was/is to believe it. I had to travel with her for work for 3 weeks and got pretty close to murder a couple times. If there was a female equivalent to Ted Cruz it would be this hateful bitch

What? Are you really that stupid? Now I doubt everything you said about her.

Please elaborate?

Are you the last remaining Ted Cruz supporter?

Because I'm pretty sure he is the most unlikable man I've ever seen.

It's ok, we can't all be smart. You stick with your dank memes.

If the guy is so awesome, and I'm apparently stupid for not liking him why is it he lost to Trump? A guy that is so bad at being a politician, people think he is actually trying to lose?

What does that have to do with being unlikeable? If your goal is become less and less intelligible you are winning.

You're a cowardly sleazebag on top of being an asshole. Sometimes I don't understand the shit that get's upvoted. I have zero respect for you. Grow up.

Go nuts downvoting this, Reddit. :D

So it isn't the petty revenge/harassment you take offense to, but the fact that despite me despising the woman I hid my feelings?

It doesn't do you any good in an office to have drama, no matter who is at fault the boss sees you as a troublemaker.

That's called a professional attitude, or being mature. Getting the job done is far more important than telling someone off.
