Slightly off topic I know but - I got a text this morning from my boss saying "could you do lunch with me today? we need to talk"
AHHHHHHH IM SCARED!
Hope Im not getting sacked!! (that would have a slightly adverse effect on me ever being debt free)

Oh my goodness!
Why is he texting you and not calling?
Have you any inkling what this is about?"Debt makes plans for you" - A quote from my friend Catherine. How true!0 -
not a clue
totally out of the blue. very very odd.
he does occasionally text me so that isnt all that unusual! but the lunch is very unusual!0 -
I've never been a boss but if I was I wouldn't take someone to lunch to break bad new to them!

Does your job involve working with clients? Sounds like you may have to do a bit of extra work or something and he is buttering you up.
Can't you reply asking what it's about?

I doubt he would sack you over lunch ?? Why waste money on someone who you are going to get rid off
What about a positive thought ? Maybe a promotion :T Or a pay rise :j
or maybe there is a little chemistry :heart2:
Best of luck anyway, try to find out what the subject is going to be about before ordering, that way if its bad news order a massive meal....0 -
i replied saying yep no problem.
possibly buttering me up! i suppose you are right about the not taking someone to lunch to give them bad news thing!! surely he would book a meeting room or something?! he is a bit odd tho!!0 -
def NO chemistry!! LOL! he is 40 years older than me!!
yeah am at work now - im on tenterhooks too!!0 -
