[quote=Anonymous]Haven’t read all the thread, but are you certain the employee initiated the conversation? Could the boss have offered to have a career trajectory conversation where this came up? My big boss on a project asked me to meet with him. Asked me how I felt about an email my boss had sent me. She belittled my work / attitude and he told me her email seemed really inappropriate in its tone. She was pissed off I’d met with him and assumed I’d gone behind her back to do so. The weird thing is I’d told no one / shown no one the email so either she Bcc’d big boss (or forwarded it to him) or bcc’d someone else who shared it with big boss. Anyhow, in my feedback session she “coached” me on not going over my boss’ head. I felt like if I told her he initiated it (and got into the fact that I don’t know how he got the email) it would turn really ugly so I didn’t say anything. [/quote]
