I Think My Boss Is Having An Affair

I think that my boss might be having an affair. I know that I could very well be wrong, but a couple of odd things have occurred lately.

My boss always wears a polo shirt. Every single day, he either wears the company polo shirt or a plain one. However, not last week on Friday, but the Friday before, he wore a long-sleeved shirt. It took me by surprise a little bit. At first, I thought that he might have had an important meeting, but he did not. In fact, he had been in an important, external meeting the previous day, when he wore his usual polo shirt.

He, then, wore a long-sleeved shirt last Friday too, but he did not wear one throughout the week. The reason why this got me thinking that he could be having an affair, is that we finish at 1:30pm on a Friday. If he was not dressed up for work reasons, then maybe he was for personal reasons.

This week, his wife has been in Sweden, for work reasons. Today is Tuesday, and both yesterday and today, he has worn a long-sleeved shirt. Again, there is no important meeting that he needs to be dressed up for. It just seems a little odd.

There is more to it than just wearing a shirt. As I mentioned, we finish at 1:30pm on Fridays – that is two and a half hours earlier than our usual finish of 4pm. The last two Fridays, my boss has stated that the time seems to be going by slowly and cannot wait to leave. He does not say this in a fed-up-of-work tone, but more of a he-is-looking-forward-to-something tone.

My other little inkling came from the end of the day, yesterday. I asked him what he was having for dinner, being as it was just him at home. He said that he was going out to a Chinese restaurant, because his wife cannot have Chinese food. Now, he was not ordering a takeaway, he was going to a Chinese restaurant. He and his wife have no children, so he was not meeting up with a son or daughter.

I know, I know, it could be nothing. It just seems really out of character. I just felt like sharing my silly, little theory.
