#5 - Getting Personal

I can go at length on this subject. Good bosses can gather how far they can delve into your personal life, bad bosses go too deeply or simply don't care that you are another human being. It can go both ways. BB cared much too deeply and it was very offputting.

I had picked up BB from home and brought him to work one day. While on the drive there, he kept saying I drive as if I don't have any confidence and that he seems to attract women with low self-confidence. Mind you, BB has always bragged about having a marriage for 29 years, so this seemed a bit odd to bring up in a close situation such as a car ride. (He did also brag about his many "girlfriends" as well, but would later claim that he meant "friends that were girls," but I digress.)

I then tell him that I like to hug the curve in a turn because it makes me more comfortable and I know that I won't be swinging off into the lane to the right and possibly alarming the people in the car in that lane.

We then start talking about cars and I was going on about how compact my car is to my older one and that it made parallel parking much easier. He then proceeds to ask "oh, do you want to park?" I ask for clarification and he goes, "oh nevermind..." Eww...

In another exchange, I was letting him know that I may need some time off because my boyfriend was having some surgery. When I told him about the location, he proceeds to intimate that my boyfriend is lying to me and is really going to that part of the world to cheat on me.

"Are you sure he's going for surgery? I don't think he is. That's a wild place down there. I'd want to go there and tell me wife I was having surgery too?"
