I can understand how tempting it is to  at someone else's misfortune when that person has been nasty or cruel.

I also understand that it is a process to work through the emotions about the person who recruited you, etc.

However, I would like to make 2 points:

1.  Working in retail isn't such a horrible fate.

2.  Gloating over the change of someone else's fate has a nasty habit of biting you in the butt one day.

I don't say this to be mean.  Just my honest thoughts.
