The Bad News Thread

[Chico23231]

Ive been dealing with a dispute at work since last Thursday and Friday. This is easily the maddest Ive every been in my life. It basically revolves around a well perpetuated lie that a couple associates...one in leadership...kinda established over covering their ass on a major underwriting fuck up.

I found the fuck up and took appropriate channels...then I got back an email from someone I work with from a group in Texas. When I read the email that was forwarded from one of the perpetrators here...I almost had a heartache because of the far fetched lie.

Ive been on calls at work over this and even told my boss who is up in Connecticut I contemplated calling our HR folks. Which Ive thankfully never done in my 15 years here.

I just feel betrayed...folks these are your people you work with, not your friends. Tough lesson to learn.

Still being worked out, but the 2 people involved know they are wrong...wont look me in the eye. haven't spoken to me since last week.
