I asked John for advice on leveraging my event planning skills and downtime to help our team plan a successful conference. Our boss subsequently scolded me, for according to John "trying to go over her head." Now my boss refuses to talk to me and relies on him for
everything. I hear that he’s now in the
running to get that promotion instead of me – what a
fucking douchecrat!
