Pls Nairalanders, I need your advice. My boss traveled out of the country and she posted a picture on her WhatsApp status which I commented on 'what a nice pics'.

But to my surprise she is taking it up.
Pls what should I do?

Edited: I wrote Good pm ma, what a nice look.
She hasn't confronted me but she told her housegirl that I will have to explain what I mean to her when she comes back.

You go use this one learn to always Look away

suggest my name if she wants to... you know Na

Taking it up how? Angrily or pleasantly

Instead of you to focus on your job you went about complementing her pics maybe you think she's one of those bosses that sleep with their employees.....Well you're in for a hot one hope you don't get fired when she comes back

What do you mean by taking it up?

that She took offence? Well, it seems she has never liked you.

Send your apologies to her inbox. That you didn't mean it the wrong way

Op you need to explain more, where is she taking it ?

Taking it up how? Be explicit and besides I don't see anything wrong complimenting her except there's more to this. Maybe she was expecting you to add ma'am to your salutation..

What do you mean exactly by taking it up?

I think the OP complimented her in such a way that he didn't not know when he miss typed.

It could be that he typed responses like, ''you are looking sexy ma, I love your smiles, I miss you mam, most pretty boss ever, ....." and many more like that.

Always mind your business and focus on your work.

Hmmmm

I wrote Good pm ma, what a nice look.
She haven't confront me but she told her housegirl that I will have to explain what I mean to her when she come back..

Relax, she didn't confront you that means she isn't angry with what you said. If she found what you said irrating she would have responded directly to you and not involved a third party (her house help)

When she comes back, greet her normally and continue with your job, it's most likely that she'll let it slide or informally ask you what you meant by that statement. If the later is the case, simply tell her that you were appreciating God's creative art work in her and nothing more... believe me, women love being appreciated regardless of how unapproachable or mean they might look. That reply alone would make her giggle and give a fake hiss and ask you to return back to your job. But deep down she will be the happiest person that day.

There's nothing to worry about. No female boss would sack her staff for complimenting her looks.

But next time learn to mind your business...it reduces problems and unnecessary anxeity.

Relax. As a matter of fact she wants to hear more. She is angry and didn't reply you immediately on Whatsapp instead told her house help?

Let her confront you first na. Tell her you just appreciate her and nothing more. Apologise if she's not taking it easy. Now that you know the kind of lady she is, don't try it again.

The behaviour of an average Nigerian boss..small power like this them go dey behave like Buhari...

OP even addressed her with "MA".yet she is doing as if she is the wife of the president..

Nonsense

Angry bosses are due to Nigerian finacial condition, paying stafs seem like a huge sacrifice to them and they somehow feel they are owed a huge favour, especially female bosses with multitude of hormonal inbalance

Until Nigerians work in a country with working Labour Laws, or they school in countries that teachers dont beat you up and ridicule your, or lecturers intimidate you, they wouldnt know what it feels like to be liberal

Many would give reasons for the Bosses paranoid wicked behaviours as if the employee abused any of the company law/policies , Employement contracts /agreement and moral and in ethics or labour laws.. that is how we continue to support domestic abuse of children and abuse from teachers and lecturers because we where trained like that and dont know better




.

If she is a member of Nairaland then you re completely finished

My only question is, what where you doing with the bolded in her Madam's absence.?



No let her tell madam say you seduced or even raped her when she was away. That na double wahala.

you are just a lair,

same you was accused of rape? and got sacked !!

the "Good pm ma". gave you out !

and the "house girl' element.

E don red for you be that

If that's all you have done by complimenting her photos, I don't think you need to panic.

You need to be brave and be a man. When she comes back and call you for questioning simply tell her you were just admiring God's creation like a user already said up there. You don't need to panic bro and I don't think there is cause for alarm.

I bet she might be into you and looking for a way to get you closer. Alot of boss are like that. Don't be scared! I respect don't be scared !!! Be brave.
