One of the techs at work informed me that our manager at work is having an affair with one of our doctors. She is 'sure' of this because they have long meetings behind closed doors. Then she let me know that I am the only one she has told and that I mustn't breathe a word.
Prior to telling me this, she informed me that our manager had called her into the office and raked her over the coals over her work ethic, and that she was a backstabber. Well, frankly, she does suck and has needed to be taken out to the woodshed for some time. And why she was confiding this inflammatory nonsense to me, God only knows. And, I seriously doubt that I'm the only recipient of her 'inside knowledge' about the adultery she claims to be occurring.
Frankly, this is slander. I quietly informed the charge nurse who is my best confidant at work, and she has made sure that the victims of this malicious gossip are aware. Defaming someone's reputation is a serious matter, in my opinion. I think we all should stand up against this sort of thing.
