water sports with boss?

Anonymous
My boss and I are heading to a conference and arriving a day early. I arranged to spend the afternoon snorkeling and jet skiing and casually asked boss if he's interested in joining. He enthusiastically said yes. I mentioned this to my DH and he is adamant this is very inappropriate. I have zero attraction to my boss and he's never been inappropriate. Should I find a way to cancel? I really don't want to but I can see why this may seem inappropriate from the outside. Boss is 5 years older than me fwiw.

Did you say water sports or did you say snorkeling and jet skiing? Very different meanings

Did you ask your boss if he wanted to go snorkeling, or did you ask him if he wanted to do “water sports” with you lol

I’m assuming you’re a troll, but if not, where is your business trip?

Don't share a ski. Snorkeling might be with a group anyway. If not,it's unsafe to snorkel alone.

I don't see why this is more inappropriate than having dinner and drinks with the boss. I'd do it, but like others said, obviously don't share a jet ski.

Unless you’re planning on rocking a thong bikini I don’t see the issue.

You’re in for it now, OP.

I wouldn't want to be in swimming attire with or see my co-workers or boss in swimming attire. I wouldn't go so far as to say inappropriate but I wouldn't do it.

people have wildly different relationships with their bosses. I have had some bosses I would have done this with but would never do this with current boss. only you can know if you have a snorkel boss or a connect on kpis boss. obv a snorkel boss is better.

Maybe wear board shorts and a tee/tank rash guard or a tankini top with more coverage.
