Dear coworkers,
I work with some of the nicest people. I love that you are willing to look past the very ungenerous nature of our director, and offer your support to her in her hour of grief. You are able to look past all the times she has given you guilt trips for having a sick child, the Christmas bonuses she cut out last year, the staff Christmas party where so many of you graciously bought a round of drinks, or an appetizer to share, and while she did share(in the items you bought), she did not reciprocate, knowing that she had just cut our Christmas bonuses, that she always signs up to buy the cheapest thing for a potluck and then frequently leaves with everyone's leftovers, that she always suggests doing a diaper shower for any pregnant staff, and then brings generic diaper (nothing against generic diapers, just as a gift), that she asks people to chip in for food for their own shower or birthday parties......
While I applaud your generous nature, do you really think that buying wine is appropriate? For someone who admits to finishing a bottle of wine by herself on many nights? For someone who casually admits that while she tries not to drink until Thursday nights, she usually starts much earlier in the week? Really? Don't think I'll chip in on the wine, but if you'd like to buy flowers....


Sincerely.
Me
