Position of Authority

A man in a position of authority
Must keep integrity at all costs
He doesn't target a woman 
he knows is vulnerable and damaged
He doesn't flirt or play games
I guess now there is going to be
A smear campaign against me
That I'm the one who's nuts and crazy
I can handle that
It's not my fault for being targeted
Shame on this man
He should keep integrity at all costs
Woman at work are off limits
Especially the vulnerable ones

I agree with you Holly - he should keep his integrity.. stick to people you can trust and not idiots like this man - I too have met people like him in my working life in fact I'll never forget telling my male boss I was pregnant - his words weren't congratulations ... instead he asked me if it was an accident! I wanted to hit him!!:-( hugs jan xx
