Not Your Driver

*Not Your Driver* is a workplace short drama. Department manager Ella Reed carpooled with four colleagues and ended up being their free personal driver for three months. They haggled over her gas costs, took her time for granted and left her out of pocket. When she stopped, deputy manager Mandy ostracized her and fabricated charges: she rigged team feedback, twisted personal grievances into performance records, and dumped project paperwork blame on Ella. Ella did not fight back rashly. She gathered solid evidence from notices, invoices and records. Senior leaders Brian, Helen and Linda investigated. Mandy was fired for tampering with evaluations, botching projects and lying. Ella earned the lead spot on the annual strategic key project by herself. The takeaway: she always held the wheel of her own life.
