So we had our company Christmas party at a restaurant on Friday night. This is a year after he freaked out at the people at the restaurant because they couldn't get power into the room where he wanted it so he could use our projector to give a presentation with. Yes, a presentation at our Christmas party. Fortunately I wasn't there... thank God.
So let's flash forward to this year... I was all ready to disconnect the lamp from the projector if he wanted to bring it, but we were saved this year from him deciding to ruin our Christmas dinner with a presentation on God only knows what. But that didn't stop him from making a complete ass out of himself.
While we're eating our appetizers and a lot of us are drinking a significant amount of alcohol, he gets up to talk. He starts off by saying that he didn't know how to approach this, but he wanted to share it with us all. He goes on to say that we have donuts the first Wednesday of every month for one of our meetings (not one that I'm in thank God, two meetings a week with him is all I can take). Then he mentions that the donuts are almost always gone by the end of the day. But we still had donuts leftover until Friday this week. So he then goes on to say that since one of our employees was out on maternity leave, and thusly wasn't around for the donuts, we now all know who eats all of the donuts... while she's sitting there at the table with us. She looked absolutely mortified, and her husband looked like he was going to get up and kill my boss. She's a bigger girl, but she lost about 20lbs during her pregnancy and has been trying to lose weight. He seriously had the audacity to get up in front of everyone and say that.
He's gotten absolutely ridiculous lately. We're all pretty sure that he's having an affair with one of our employees (who is a complete bitch... the one that wants my job for some reason). He makes completely out of line comments like that one. He flirts with our 23 year old receptionist to the point where she's completely uncomfortable when he comes up to the front... just to talk to her. But despite all of this, we can't bring it up to our parent company, because my boss was handpicked by our CEO... and while there isn't supposed to be such a thing as employee retaliation, we're all certain that it would happen. Plus, his behavior gives us job security, because there's no way in hell he could fire any of us with all of this other shit going on that we've documented. But something has got to give soon... because if he keeps it up, I'll deal with any type of retaliation that I have to, and then sue our parent company for harassment and gender discrimination... as my boss treats me like shit because I don't have tits. Another fact that's been well documented by our HR person on-site.
It's a completely hostile work environment at this point in time... and everyone is ecstatic when he's out of the office. Fortunately, he's going to be gone for a significant portion of this week, and all of next week. Thank God.
