1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: The orders the Fred Show. Friend, come on, let's get 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: into the courtroom. Welcome to the Kecky Court Podcast. Here 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: is a bonus case that is very, very messy. Okay. 4 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 1: It says, hey, kikey, am I wrong for outing my 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: boss's office affair after it costs me a promotion. It says, 6 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: I have worked at a company for six years. I 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: was in the running for a big promotion. It came 8 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: down to me and one other person. John. Now, John 9 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: has only been with the company a year, but he 10 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: is very close with our boss Linda. Close as in, 11 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: sometimes they arrived to work together, they disappear for lunch 12 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: meetings that take hours, and sometimes they even leave work together. Now, 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: of course, people around the office are whispering that they 14 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: may be in a relationship, but nothing was confirmed. Well, 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: last month I found out that John got the promotion 16 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: over me. Linda told me it was because he had 17 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: more leadership potential, which really hurt me because I literally 18 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: trained him well. A week after, I was at a 19 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: hotel for a friend's wedding and I just happened to 20 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: see Linda and John checking into the hotel together. They 21 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: didn't see me, but I was sure to take a 22 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: little photo of them holding hands in the lobby. That 23 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: next Monday, I emailed the photo to HR and let 24 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: them know. Words spread fast. Both of them were put 25 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: on leave pending an internal investigation. Now my phone is 26 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: blowing up with coworkers saying that I was petty and 27 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: jealous for taking the photo and sending it to HR, 28 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: and that I may have destroyed two families because Linda 29 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: is married and Jake has a long term girlfriend. But 30 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: my best friend said, I just leveled the playing field, 31 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: and I don't feel like I was wrong. Keiki, let 32 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: me know what you think. Oh girl, I'm gonna tell 33 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: you like this, Okay, God works in mysterious ways. So 34 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 1: you know your boss was absolutely in the wrong to 35 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 1: give him the promotion over you simply because they're sleeping together. Okay. 36 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: This is clearly her little boy toy, and you know 37 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: she brought him in, had you train him, okay, and 38 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: then gave him the promotion over you. And they're flaunting 39 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: their little affair around the office, not even being discreet, 40 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: because if they were, they wouldn't be sneaking off during 41 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: the workday, they wouldn't be showing up to work together 42 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: and leaving together, which is crazy, and she's she's aware 43 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: that she's married, he's aware that he's in a long 44 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: term relationship. So the fact that you caught them in 45 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: four K at the hotel, girl, that was nobody but God, okay, 46 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: he allowed you to see it, plain and right in 47 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: front of your face. So I don't think you were 48 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: wrong for sending that to HR, especially if you feel 49 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: like you were overlooked for this position simply because they 50 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: are sleeping together and with her being his superior. I'm 51 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: sure there's some type of rule in the workplace that 52 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: she should one not be hooking up with him, and 53 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: if she, if they are going to hook up, it 54 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: should have been established with HR prior to you sending 55 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: that photo. So I guess, you know, you'll figure out, 56 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: you know, if she was being upfront with the company 57 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: after the investigation, But it doesn't feel that way, it 58 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: doesn't look that way. She'll probably end up fired at 59 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: this point, which I mean, I hate to see anybody 60 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: lose their job, but you cannot just be out here 61 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: giving out promotions to people you're sleeping with and overlooking 62 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: people who have actually put in the time, the effort 63 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: and the hard work. So girl, in my opinion. Hhmm, 64 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: you ain't wrong, o guy, you are not wrong. A 65 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: picture would have ended up on Facebook too if it 66 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: was me. But anyway, I would love to know what 67 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: you the jury think. Of course, I posted the video 68 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: on my Instagram on air Kiki k E K E 69 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: also Fred's show Radio go watch, leave a comment and 70 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: let me know your thoughts on this messy case, honey, 71 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: And then you know, we'll be back on Monday with 72 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: a new case and Kiki Court on the air on 73 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: the Fred's Show. So make sure you tune in. Friend. 74 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, girl, you're not wrong in my opinion, honey. 75 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: If you deserve that promotion it deserves, it needs to 76 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: be yours, not John.
