Boss talked to us after the interview... expressly explaining that she had to grill us so we can prove to the Selection Board that we should be promoted....
She also laid down the cards... how all other applicants are equally competitive and would be an additional asset to our group...
And how scared she is that she'd lose us because we'd get demoralized...
And then she cried... while voicing out her need to protect her existing staff while also being fair to the other applicants...
And of course, I had to cry with her...
And of course, we assured her that we trust her to select the most comeptent ones for the job... and that we'd still loyal to the department...
Sigh... if only all bosses are as loving of their staff... or as respectful..
