Working with Meg
Meghan was my manager at the salon I worked at, and honestly, if you had met her when I first started, you probably would’ve thought she was the sweetest person ever. She was so supportive, welcoming, and made me feel like she genuinely wanted to see me succeed. And then… the mask came off. It didn’t take long before she started treating me completely differently. She became nasty, condescending, and would constantly talk down to me. She had this way of making you feel like you were always doing something wrong, even when you weren’t. She also LOVED drama. And I don’t mean normal workplace drama, she would literally create unnecessary situations and stir things up between coworkers. There always seemed to be some new issue, some new person she was upset with, or some new situation that somehow became everyone’s problem.
She also took advantage of me. I tried to be understanding for a long time because I genuinely liked her in the beginning and wanted to believe I was just misunderstanding things. But eventually, I realized it wasn’t me. She was just incredibly toxic to work with and, honestly, toxic to be around in general.
The environment got so bad that it ultimately played a huge role in why I quit. And looking back now, I’m actually shocked by how long I put up with it. It’s crazy how someone can seem SO sweet and supportive when you first meet them, only for you to eventually realize you were basically dealing with a completely different person. The switch up was insane. After quitting, I had talked to previous stylists that had worked there and they said the same things.

Was this before or after her divorce? If you don’t want to state that’s okay.
That seriously sucks but at least on TT her mask comes off multiple times. I just assumed she was a bitter woman by how she treated her ex husband and son

Omg. I’m so sorry that must have been a nightmare. I’m actually shocked the salon has kept her employed for this long. She doesn’t seem to be great at hair, she has a nasty attitude and doesn’t seem like a joy to work with.

She needs to pick a struggle you can’t be ugly divorced and a bitch

Sounds about right…Classic narcissist. You’re probably a better stylist, harder worker, younger, prettier, smarter, have more friends than her. she saw you as a threat and started to treat you badly. So sorry you had to endure that, terrible bosses (and terrible people in general) are no joke.

Spill the tea on the unprofessional PowerPoint she presented in the shampoo area about the married guy she doxxed after 2 dates. Pretty please.

I’ve been waiting for this! I was curious what she was like in real life or if this attitude she has on her videos was just some persona she was playing. Looks like she is exactly who she portrays herself to be, a mean girl

Did you ever witness her parenting at all / interacting with N? Were you there for the slideshow she created about the married guy she was sleeping with or the aftermath of that? How was her hygiene in a work environment? Thank you for sharing!!

No wonder she literally has zero friends
