Well, unfortunately, if you knew my Executive Director you would understand. If you don't have a recording of the conversation or you don't have it it in writing, it was never said. She colors things however the person in the room with her wants them, and then denies it to your face when someone else enters the conversation. With me, more than one time. With every other staff member. This is her M.O. So thank you for the advice but no, it was not bad form to record the conversation.

Hi all, In a meeting with the ED at my ALF today I was told that I was being suspended pending investigation of my actions due to having a voice recorder at work. I've carried the recorder with me for several years, starting when I was in nursing school, and never thought about it being a violation of policy to bring it to work. I had several personal files of me and my toddler acting silly and 2 recorded phone calls between myself and my ED on the device. She reviewed and deleted the files, all of them, without my consent. She then told me that I had committed a serious offense by possessing the recorder and by using it to record our conversation over the phone without her permission. I know in Ohio, according to the wiretapping laws, that I have the right to record any phone conversation that I am a party to without the permission of the other party. I'm not concerned about that part. What I want to know is, can they enforce suspension and possibly terminate me for having a recording device on company property? It was my understanding that the NLRB says companies cannot enforce such a prohibition. Thank you in advance for any information.
