Caught my boss cheating with his wife’s best friend
Our company was celebrating securing another five year contract with a massive client, we do these office parties quite often with every biggish achievement, it’s our bosses way of appreciating our work (bonuses are awarded too) & to boost morale as the workload can get intense.
Anyway the party was well underway in our boss’s house, everyone was drunk indulging in good food and generally having a good time, needing the bathroom I excused myself.
I blame it on the alcohol or perhaps the loud music just above but I didn’t hear anything to give me warning of the horror of what I would witness until I stumbled into the unlocked bathroom and saw my bosses wife’s best friend, (also an employee of his) riding my boss as he sat on top of the toilet.
I rushed out immediately after, I didn’t even hesitate I headed straight for the front door walked for what felt like forever then went home.
This all happened last night and I’ve just woken up with a killer hangover bracing for the impact for the awkward encounter I’ll have with my boss on Monday…lol.
Netizens’ comments
- Guess who’s about to get a raise
- congrats on the promotion!!!
- Now is the time to “request” that mega raise you so deserve
- 3 options. Never tell or talk about it again. Blackmail boss. Or tell wife. I’d do the third
- As a wife myself, and while I know that telling the wife is the ethically correct thing to do, what exactly would be the benefit of telling her?
OP’s job and therefore his livelihood would absolutely be on the line.
Secondly, there is no telling what sort of arrangement the couple has. If you’re f-ing the best friend while your wife is around, maybe you aren’t as concerned with her finding out. Maybe that’s why the woman is a “best” friend. Maybe the wife doesn’t want to know or doesn’t care.
Finally, you have no proof. What exactly will you be telling the wife and how easy would it be for your boss to spin this and make you look like the bad guy? “disgruntled employee who is facing termination decides to fabricate a story to blackmail boss.”
I just don’t see a real win/win situation for you here.
I would start looking for a new job immediately, your boss obviously has some ethical issues (if not for cheating, then at least for sleeping with an employee without being discreet). Once you’ve secured a new position, send an email to the wife with your entire encounter and let her do what she wants with that information.
