Whelp. Today was stupid.
I live in the reddest red town possible. Like every stereotype you can think of would be true. Bible belt craziness.
I'm 40 and grew up here, so I've had a whole lot of time to realize I'm different.
And I'm mouthy af, don't care, post memes on fb and run my mouth all day. I don't bother hiding myself anymore.
So anyway.
I work for the judiciary. And being in a small town, everyone knows everyone else. And I have a good job and its the only one in the county, so everyone knows who I work for. Even if I don't post about it on fb, ever.
So my boss, he's an attorney, now a Judge. And he's Uber conservative and religious. Ugh. But he never talks about it, doesn't ever push it on me, nothing. And he knows I'm an atheist and Feminist Democrat. I'm not quiet about it.
We manage just fine.
And it's election season and the gossip is hot and people are running their mouth double time.
He is uncontested, so no issues with my job security, either.
Today I heard that the gossip now was people coming up to him to let him know his secretary is a left leaning liberal.
Does anyone else have to deal with this nonsense at their job?
