MY big-headed boss is furious because I didn’t attend his wedding.

He pretty much ordered everyone to be there because he wanted more people on his side of the church and maximum adoration.

Because I didn’t go to the wedding, I didn’t contribute the requested £150 to his honeymoon fund or attend his new wife’s expensive hen weekend either.

Apparently, that alone cost my female colleagues £400 each, because they had to pay for her too.

My mate says I’m too stubborn and not enough of a team player, but why should I be expected to spend my money on people I have no respect for? I really liked his ex-wife and children and I think he behaved appallingly by dumping them for this airhead.

Is it a crime to have standards? I’m now being blanked in the office and live in fear of being made redundant. Why should

I be punished?

JANE SAYS: Your boss obviously views his work force as his own fan club.

He was so determined to have a sea of adoring faces in the pews that your decision to say “no thanks” knocked his massive ego for six.

But why should you spend your hard-earned cash on him and his new wife if you don’t want to.

Unfortunately, this is not an ideal world and we often have to jump through hoops to maintain the status quo.

Of course he’s not being reasonable or fair, but I suspect he believes that he can do what he likes as he pays the wages.

Keep your head down and get on with your work. If you feel you are being picked on, speak to your union.
