The irony is that when this girl started she saw another young-un flirting and hugging the men and said to me "is that how you have to be to get ahead here". Anyway, the years pass, and she blossoms.
She now works for the top man, and recently complained to me about his innopropriate behaviours with her , he bascially wants to fxxk her and has made some off colour comments in meetings. blueghhhh.
But I have noticed recently that she is not exactly discouraging his attentuion, always laughing, smiling, joking, and was even tactile today. She has a lovely fella so god knows whats going on.
anyway, her efforts seem to bear fruit as she is now likely for promotion.
The reason this bugs me is
(a) she is promoted over an equally capable collegue of mine, seems unfair . As I am having to deal with the upset of the passed over collegue and its all bit awkward TBH
(b) she has poured scorn on people that do this, and has been quite spiteful about top mans other conquests, seems a bit hypocritical IMO
I probably sound like a jealous old hag! But my main issue is I am finding it hard to look her in the eye and we are friends and collegues.
anyway, you lot are usually blunty honest....
