Guest Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I feel so strange doing this but I need somebody to tell me that I am not crazy!!! My husband works long hours and works mostly with women. I've noticed lately that when this one particular female gets calls at work from other men, he actually tells me about it and knows who called her. I do know this person and talk to her occasionally. My husband has even asked me what she says about her current boyfriend and tells me that he thinks "she is just his booty call" and went on & on about how her boyfriend takes off for days at a time without calling her, etc. This past week, he was supposed to be off on Saturday but she came in & requested the day off. He changed HIS schedule and took Monday instead off so SHE could have Saturday & Sunday off. When I asked him why, his excuse for this was rather strange saying that he had to be there on Thursday, which I still don't understand why he worked Saturday so she could be off. When I asked him, he was stumbling over his words like he was looking for a good excuse when I put him on the spot because I normally don't question his time at work. This female is also salary paid but on days that my husband is off, she will leave work early or come in late and he has never written her up for it and he says that he "talked" to her about it. He complains that she isn't doing her job, spends her time at work focused on when she can leave, and he always says she does this because she wants to go sleep around or run around with her boyfriend. He seems very focused on her personal life and the men in her life. When I confronted him, he said it is because it is affecting her performance at work and the phone calls are disruptive. I am just confused!!! The things he says about her and her love life sound so full of jealousy. When she meets a new man, he actually gets jealous about it. And then he complains about her but gives up his weekend days off that he could spend here with me & our kids so that SHE can have weekends off. He gives her Friday or Saturday off every single week while he works every weekend only occasionally taking a weekend day off. Am I reading too much into this??? Could he have a crush on her??? I have such a strong feeling that something is not right and my intuitions are usually 99.9% correct. HELP!!!!!!!!!!! Confused Link to post Share on other sites
EnigmaXOXO Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 It sounds like he knows far too many details about his employee's personal life than any boss should (or would even care to know). More than anyone could gather if he were just ease-dropping on her telephone conversations. There's far more than "job performance" being discussed between them and if it is interfering with the quality of her work, he ought to act like a supervisor and take professional action to rectify the situation instead of involving himself (and you) in this woman's personal life. Particularly the negative remarks about another man he doesn't even know. Am I reading too much into this??? No. Not unless he's been working around women so much that he's starting to behave and gossip like one. Link to post Share on other sites
