Tricia Banks plotted revenge on the directors of Jarrow based Rosewood Packaging Limited where she was an administration manager.
The 53 year old, who had been suffering depression, quit claiming she was suffering poor health.
But she took one of the company's cheque booksand after practising the managing director's signature, forged a cheque to steal &#xA3;9,071.
Banks, of Felton Drive, Forest Hall, Newcastle, was put on supervision and given a seven month suspended jail sentence after admitting theft.
The money was still untouched in her own accounts when police arrested her, Newcastle Crown Court heard.
Glen Gatland, defending, said: "It's a highly unusual case. She wanted revenge for what she saw as the overbearing attitude of the directors."
