When I started my job about last November it was everything I ever dreamed of. I teach HHA and PCA classes and do various inservice. When I began RN director of education was my boss. When covid hit she quit. Now the CEO is my boss. However this being said the branch manager with no degree or tact but has longevity runs the office and runs me. She runs her branch with everyone in fear of her including me. We got into an argument so I called the ceo, my "boss". I bend over backwards for the branch manager nothing is ever rite meanwhile when I started I notified them I had sinus cancer 4 yrs ago 3 at the time of hire and radiation hit my brain so my short term memory is not great and I ha e adhd and anxiety..... but I've gotten far enough to accomplish my BSN so I cant be that dumb. I've figured out using my calander helps alot but I'm not perfect. So reguardless this manager is constantly riding me irrationally but the ceo said shes been here forever shes not going any where. It's suposed to be an equal opportunity employer but really feel up against the wall to give my resignation. I told the ceo this 3 days later I find my job posted. Mind you I did not give my notice. I feel my job is threatened when I'm there. It seems so unfair to have to leave because the manager isn't going any where....There's more to the story but this is quite long already. I will attach my rebuttal to my boss. What do you guys think? I'm at a loss....

I find that letters such as the one you wrote work best as personal journal entries. They can help put thoughts in order and process emotions.
If they've posted your job, it is what it is. Pouring out your heart to them is not going to change it. I've never lost a job, but I've written out letters or my thoughts about things many, many times. Doing so gave me a way to think things through without throwing any verbal grenades.
It's possible that the only thing to do here is process what went wrong. Don't be afraid of self-critique. None of us get anywhere by failing to examine our own selves, because that is the main thing we can improve/control. What we do with ourselves is the area of life where we potentially have the most power. So don't be afraid of it. Use your writing to put your thoughts in order and really examine things, including your own self/situation/strengths/weakness/successes/failures.
I would keep the letter as part of a personal journal.
It sounds like you may have to look for a new position. You need to be ready for that, so shift your priorities and exclude things that do not put you in a better position than where you are now.
Take care of yourself and best wishes in moving forward ~ ☘️
