Being Defensive
Notifications OFF
At work today, in banter two famous sex offenders were mentioned by the guys. I think they were a bit confused I didn't join in - but little do they know...
I was annoyed with myself as I felt I'd let my guard down and left myself wide open to any suspicion by my response or lack of it....
It just drives me mad how people so easily judge others and in reality have no idea what they are talking about....... it makes you want to scream out in deficence, makes me so utterly cross. ...

It also drives me mad that people are so quick to judge and maybe, before the knock, I might have been the same.
One of the premises team at work was arrested last September for iioc, but the Principal informed everyone at work and the parents as he was attending magistrates and it might have been in the news (which it was). I already had some idea of why this person was no longer at work as one of the police officers that came to our house in relation to my OH came to work to access this person's work laptop to see if there was anything on there. Not long after it was in the news, I was having my lunch in the staff room when one of the cleaners came in and she started to talk to me about this person. I couldn't really say much and I didn't really want to talk to her about him, as it was bringing up the situation I was in with my OH but I couldn't shut it down as it might have drawn attention to me.

I no longer work in the department I was working in when my son was arrested. This wasn't my choice but was forced upon me when I returned to work after a period of sickness. I know that at times some of the people in the department have a good old gossip about me and my son but as it's something I can't do anything about I have to let it go.
That exactly what I did Ocean...... feel 'put out' for a while then forget it...... and move on ......
