What Would You Do If...

your boss was cheating on his/her SO?

I'm not having to deal with this myself but I was watching a show where it's happening and was wondering what I would do if I was in that position.

 

It's an affair that would be none of my business as it does not involve me in any way. Unless it did, I'm not going to resort to snitching. I concur with the above, if I'm getting a steady source of income ( assuming this is a good job ), I'm not going to risk throwing it out of the window just to satisfy some moral obligation. If the boss was a wife-beater, then I'm more likely to attempt something.

Besides, cheating never ( at least mostly never ) ends well. The boss practically sealed his fate at that point.

 

I would confront my boss, and if they refused to do the right thing, I would tell the spouse. I dont care if its "none of my business," it's the right thing to do. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I knew something like that was happening and didn't do anything about it.

 

I feel like my answer would be different in that position. I mean cheating is always bad, but it's much worse when the couple is married. I don't know if I would necessarily go out of my way to intervene if they were just dating, but Idk, I probably still would.

 

Reminds me of a different moral dilemma I was in once... I had a client who was going out of town, so when I showed up to clean his house, he left me there with his sister. He cared for his elderly mother, so his sister was staying there while he was gone to take care of her for him. Soon after he left, his other sister and brother in law came over, and they all literally spent the entire time I was there talking crap about their brother in front of me. I was fuming, I was so mad.

Ultimately I didn't end up bringing it up to him. If it was his wife saying thsoe things about him, though, I absolutely would have had to tell him. But man, that was the worst. I was so pissed off the whole time I was there, and I really wanted to just leave, but I was cleaning his house and I wanted to do a good job for him, because he's a really good guy. Ugh. People can be the worst sometimes.

 

If I had a job and I saw something like that I wouldn't say anything to anyone. For the obvious most likely getting sacked part but mainly it's just not something I do at all, that would not be a part of my life and as much as that would suck I always keep to myself.

 

I would 100% not tell the dudes girlfriend, wtf. First off, going and confronting your boss about it is very strange but I wouldn't think it's bad to do necessarily, just kinda weird unless you were friends w/ your boss.

There's no company rule being broken, although it's arguably immoral. There's no actual law being broken. It's really none of your business..

Im really shook that people would tell the guy's wife. I just missed the days where people would mind their own buisness unless somebody was in immediate danger.

The audacity.. I got amother similar scenario. Everything is the same, except the person the boss is cheating on is your coworker. Dun dun dun.

 

Dont take this negatively. But why on earth would you have told your client that? That happens to everyone. What kinda stuff could they have said?

Sorry you were hurt, but I would only have said something if they were speaking of harming/robbing/killing him

 

What days are you talking about?

 

Those days are long gone, if they ever existed.. lol

 

It’s 2018 people, it’s possible to snitch anonymously, haha.

Yeah cause I’m sure you would hate the person who told you your girl was fucking someone else behind your back. I’m sure the knowledge of this and the possibility of catching her in a lie wouldn’t be appealing to you at all. You would probably tell that person to fuck off and mind their own business, right?
