Um, not letting it go

So I just left yet ANOTHER meeting with my boss. She was on the verge of tears and asking me if I want her to resign because she feels so badly about what happened. Egads! This is getting fucking ridiculous.

The good thing is that I got some clarification about what the heck is going on. For example, she let me know that she never told him everything about our conversation. On Friday, she went and told him we had a conversation about my "attitude". That's when he said she shouldn't have told me that. None of the wife stuff was brought up apparently (since he's actually above my boss and she certainly isn't looking to get fired). The conversation they had was just two supervisors discussing advancement potential of an another employee.

It's good to know that he doesn't know about all this. I can kinda go in with a clean slate, but I still need to hold off a day or two to make sure my head is in the right place. Perhaps tomorrow or Thursday I'll try for the sitdown with him.

I have now made it CLEAR to my boss that I have heard the last of her apologies. I told her frankly, it wasn't my place to make her feel better about all this and that I really need to give some time and space to sort this out for myself. She agreed, but encouraged me to go speak to him and utilize him as a valuable resources into other criminal justice opportunities.

I really hope this is the last of this. I feel a little bad because she feels so bad, but I can't deal with her checking on me every 2 or 3 hours giving me the puppy dog eyes of how sorry she is.

Perhaps I will use all this as leverage so we can wear jeans again. And I might just leave a wee bit early today too.
