Okay guys - I need a little input here. I an absolutely FUMING about
this. I have been doing henna during my lunch hour at my office - no
charge, just for the practice and "advertising" aspect, if you will.
Once again, this is NOT on firm time, it's on my lunch hour. Well,
today, I'm called to my supervisor's office and told that I can't do
henna on my lunch hour any more..... (HUH? Isn't this MY lunch
hour?). I am very angry. I explained that it isn't on firm time,
I'm not charging anyone, so it isn't a business being run here, that
it's something I do for my friends - no deal. I was THEN told -
you'll LOVE this - that I can't bring my henna paste to work in my
purse or backpack either (I responded by saying that it isn't a
controlled substance and I'll do as I please on that issue). I asked
if the mehndi was the issue or just that I'm doing this on my lunch
hour - it isn't the mehndi. I'm NOT real happy about this. The
designs and concepts is well liked by the attorneys and staff alike,
it's pretty much a "personal" issue with this woman - she
can't "control" me, so she harrasses me instead.... I don't mean to
whine. Ideas? Comments? Suggestions?
