Hubby Tony and I were out shopping this morning when we passed a woman going the other way. Tony looked surprised, stopped, and greeted the woman by name. It turns out it was his boss, who I have never met.
Tony has talked often about his co-workers, including his supervisor, and I've learned quite a few details about her. I had no no idea what she looked like. Back before COVID forced everyone to work from home Tony would attend an occasional after-work happy hour. but there were no organized activities for spouses.
Of course I couldn't shake the woman's hand, but we warmly nodded at each other. She told us what she was getting from the store, and I asked about a house project Tony had told me she was doing. Then we parted ways.
It's nice to know, though, that for the next ten days, whenever Tony mentions his boss I will be able to put a face to the name.

Does your brain do a memory wipe after 10 days. My brain doesn't take that long at all.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering too.
DeleteI wish I could get rid of all the non-essential information in my brain; just think how much smarter I could be! When Tony stops talking about his boss the information won't be pertinent any more.
DeleteIt's too bad they never get together with spouses.
ReplyDeleteYes, but it's the culture of the company.
DeleteI met Husband's boss and wasn't impressed!
ReplyDeleteHA!
DeleteMy boss had a photo of his wife on his desk.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
So if you ever run into the person you would recognize them.
DeleteI thought the drawing would be of a face and a mask. It sounds like you actually saw her face, I look forward to mask free days ahead here in California.
ReplyDeleteTechnically I saw the TOP of her face...masks are still required here.
DeleteSo funny, all this time you couldn't put a face to the name and now, with just a few days to go on the job, you can put half a face to the name.
ReplyDeleteIronic, isn't it?
Delete👍😃😄
