[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 607536, member: 1233"] (((((HUGS))))) It is NOT you. It is also NOT just women. My husband works at the university sporting events and he is often surprised at the level of ridiculous BS drama that happens. It is not just the employees that create the drama either, the fans and players/coaching staff/parents are often far more idiotic than the employees. I think a lot of people don't really grow up all the way. If abuse/trauma happens and you don't get therapy or help, your emotional development stops. It leaves you stuck at a certain level of emotional behavior that is not very functional. Exsil had some awful things happen when she was 13 and the only way any of us can cope with her is to remember that she is a 13yo in many ways. Looking at her actions this way makes them far more predictable and much easier to cope with. I think your 'boss' was incredibly rude and unprofessional. How does she know that this other lady was not in the room? How do you know that this isn't some mean little drama game that they go into over an over? We know that you did not tell anyone about this conversation. That leaves someone overhearing it and the 'boss' telling someone about it. My bet is the 'boss' discussed it with someone, either Jane or someone who thought it was unfair/mean and told Jane about it. Even though this is a volunteer job, it was still incredibly rude and unprofessional of this 'boss' to discuss Jane with you. It was even more unprofessional of the 'boss to accuse you of sharing the discussion. I would probably tell the 'boss' that you feel it was very wrong of her to accuse you of gossiping with-o any proof and that it would be best for her to not share things with you that are not work related, especially things about other volunteers because clearly she is telling you things that are best left unsaid or between supervisors. This sort o thing is annoying and upsetting and I am sorry you have to cope with it. For some reason I have found more of this koi at volunteer things than at paid work . [/QUOTE]
