GA and Horsey are driving our former temporary boss nuts.
He’s old school news and hates bloggers.
Using our then-new writer, he went after them in the spring, and utterly failed to put them in their place. That prompted both of them – especially GA – to come back at him, humiliating him at a time when I think he was trying to show off for her, when he was playing mentor to her.
Both bloggers know way too much about what goes on inside our office, and even now when she is no longer working for us, they hint about things even I don’t know about.
GA, who I occasionally talk to, won’t tell me who her source is – but it is clearly someone who is deep in the secrets of our office and is willing to spill them.
Our former temporary boss is desperate to get even with them, but has been hesitant to put himself out front, perhaps fearing what the bloggers might post about him.
He isn’t the upfront kind of guy and prefers to work behind a curtain of his writers, as if that might protect him.
He certainly doesn’t know bloggers very well. They got for the jugular and may well know how badly they made him look in the eyes of the writer he was mentoring last spring.
Even the male owner kept asking where the hard-hitting anti-blogger story was that our then temporary boss kept promising.
Our temporary boss blamed the writer (who has since moved on from our employ), but it’s more than that. He just couldn’t pull the trigger.
GA says she knows a lot more than she’s posted but is saving it for some future time to surprise everybody.
She won’t even hint about what it is, except that it involves our Former Temporary Boss and the male owner.
I have not brought this news back to our former temporary boss, afraid he might go out of his mind with worry.
He doesn’t work well with the new female writer who took over in hometown where both bloggers live and seems less confident, he can go after the bloggers and still maintain his cover.
But I suspect he’s merely waiting for the opportunity to strike back, as well as he isn’t exposed when he does.
