Okay, long story short or as short as possible, my General Manger [GM] lied to me about a corporate meeting being mandatory. He took me into the office and lied to my face about it even went so far as to use the District Manager [DM] as an excuse to get me to go.
The fact of the matter is the meetings are never mandatory except for the GMs and instead of ASKING if I would go for whatever reason, he lies to me. I probably would have gone anyway to be moral support but I hate being taken for granted or lied to my face.
I'm the fucking confident of the store, I know everything. I read all of the emails and cover most of the asses. So the fact, that he lied to me and thought I wouldn't know when the hour aggravates me.
I've the dropped hints that I know about the scam and yet he continues to smile in my face as if he's won the fucking lottery. The meeting is technically only a day long in New York while I live in the DC Metropolitan Area. However, I'll be out of the area for two day and my best-friend will be left to run the store alone for the duration with a bunch of newbies. Its possible that I've be staying with strangers since the rooms are randomized.
So the options, I pose you is:
- Should I go, be a bigger person, and tell him I knew after the fact?
- Don't go and make up an excuse at the last minute and never let on that I knew?
- Tell me the truth and don't go in spite?
