Another thing that has been weighing on me is my coworker who also works for my boss. She works out at the stores half the time while I stay in the office, boss lady goes back and forth between us. So ever since the day I found out my supervisor had a secret meeting with HR and then took my coworker out to lunch, and I called her and she never called back, I've only seen her for a couple of hours on Monday. And then I just worked and didn't talk to anybody because I was so pissed, and I know she knew something was up. So I sent her an email. It said:
You know how I told you whenever I get paranoid about something there is usually something to it? And you laughed? Well I guess now we know different. I saw my write up on the printer. Is this why you didn't call me back Tuesday? Oh well, I talked to Bob (boss lady's boss) and found out I at least have a fighting chance. But don't worry, its obvious you don't want to be involved, so I won't bother you anymore about this.
I was actually very angry when I wrote it, but I tried not to let it show. Because I know I don't really have a right to be mad at her. But I am. She's the one person who has experienced all this with me and would be able to verify everything I've said. And she's been with the company for years and is well respected. So for her to sit by and just watch this happen, after all the conversations we've had about how crazy and unreasonable our boss is, just makes me so angry! But this is my problem, not her's, and she doesn't owe me anything. So I should respect her decision to stay out of it. But the reasonable part of me seems to be entirely separate from the emotional side of me.
I think, but am not sure she will be there tomorrow. So if she is, I guess we'll see what happens.
