I wasn’t planning on willingly disclosing any personal information regardless of their political affiliation and religious views.  I’m a pretty private person by nature.  My relationship with this NF is strictly professional.  They don’t ask questions, I appreciate it.  I do my job and they pay me my wages.  It worked.

Grandma is much more nosey and extroverted.  She wouldn’t let the subject be and I tried to skirt around the fact my fiancé was a woman but I guess it became obvious I was hiding something and she asked directly.  I was not going to lie, and don’t regret answering honestly.  I do think she shouldn’t have asked if they didn’t want to know the answer.

I guess it was naive of me to assume it would be a non-issue.  I’ve worked with people who were more conservative of various religions and even if our personal beliefs differed in the end it was about me fulfilling a job.  In my experience most people are live and let live.  Maybe it’s ignorance to assume that if all future employers.

I’m surprised.  Unexpected ending to my week.  Sad, I enjoyed the job and the children and the family was fair.  It’s just too obvious the issue stems from my personal life which is so unfortunate for all involved.  [/quote]
