Charlatan or Confidant - Part X

With revelations about Oxfam's role in bullying, endemic throughout the organisation, coming to light, recently; with the death of a Manager in Ireland, taking her own life; I thought it would be appropriate to finish 'Charlatan or Confidant'. This is a detailed account of a conversation, that took place between myself and a representative from Oxfam, put in place to liase with myself and my partner, over a five month period in 2015. This is the tenth and final part.

As Penny, the secret Director, reached the end of her remit, the relationship between her and us broke down.  Exactly who was this person? What was her remit? Did she succeed?

A work colleague, who I knew, introduced herself to me as a friend, through her psychic abilities, where she had met my dead Grandmother, in April 2015. I know, you couldn't make it up!  This was all she needed to befriend me at a very difficult point in my life.  I believed her, because I wanted to.

Over a five month period, Penny became very close.  Her role changed from psychic to spokesperson for Oxfam, confidant, friend, secret Director and intermediary, speaking on mine and my partners behalf, whilst suffering at the hands of a bully and sociopath at Oxfam.

At the time this all happened, we both had a firm belief in her abilities and trusted her fully.  She was the person, we were told to deal with by head office, she was the help we needed. 

The truth of who she was is difficult to comprehend, but after taking advice from trusted organisations and sources we were made aware of her role.  She was there to misdirect us, sending us down a road, where we would not jeopardise Oxfam's reputation.  During her five month professional tenure, she became whoever we wanted her to be, so long as legal action against the charity we worked for, was avoided.  Penny was working for those in HR, doing their bidding.  She was also in all probability another sociopath, just like the manager, Veronica, who had tried so hard to destroy myself and Darrell. Legally, we were told she was the best person for the job.  After all, the only person able to defeat or get in the mind set of a person with Anti Social Personality Disorder, was someone who suffered from it themselves.

This person had a dubious past, Oxfam knew that, it's why they took her on in the first place.  She felt she owed them something.  She was put in my region, because she was able to tame a sociopathic Area Manager.

Oxfam could not remove Veronica, as Area Manager, because, as a sociopath, she would use her power to bring down Oxfam and anyone who got in her way. Myself and Darrell were used as scapegoats, to collect more information on this degenerate; we were expendable. When the time is right, we will be called to give evidence against her.  Penny was there merely to stop myself and Darrell from realising the truth and taking the necessary legal action that would be required to safeguard our future, before Oxfam had enough proof and Veronica could be removed!

When I look back at this dreadful time; despite all the pain, it has made me the person I am.  I worked in a region for a charity, with vulnerable people, where not one, but two, or more sociopaths resided. My life and that of my colleagues were put in danger daily, but myself and Darrell survived.  

I will continue to tell this story, up until the day those responsible are arrested. In 2012, Oxfam ran a campaign against sociopaths, yet their ranks are filled with those, who wish to cause harm to others. Their actions are now responsible for a death.  Stand up to the bullies and make sure you are never a victim again!
