Q: Been falsely accused at work of an affair with an employee based on an error in an expense report I approved.
I've always had a good report with my employees but now I'm worried they will start digging through emails and misconstrue funny / friendly IMs and Email. What should I do ?
A: welp, I don't think this is as much of a legal question as one of perception and general office culture well being. So my reaction would not be legal, but would be to look at the better examples of people who have first changed their office's culture and later, if the matter came up, apologized for anything that at this time might seem bad but which back then seemed innocuous.
