WHAT is this we hear about an 11th-floor tailspin between a headmaster and his deputy that has left the surrounding community wondering whether anything productive will ever emerge from this otherwise well-regarded school?
The school is actually named after the local high-density suburb in that other small town — whose name has something to do with a river that does not dry up.
Even though the deputy is not married and the boss is the one with a wife at home, the affair is now known even by the learners that they teach, and one wonders what these poor innocent learners are learning from their school authorities.
Apparently, this is not the first time that this headmaster has been involved in controversial illicit love affairs.
Some years back, during the years he was heading that other well-known church related institution, he did the unthinkable by taking a small house instead of his spouse for a foreign trip of headmasters and their spouses.
Blabber will not expend energy on what transpired upon their return from the foreign trip, but at the end of the day, such is the open zip shut mind approach that this guy exudes!
Blabber being an elder in our community will be the first to advise this illicit couple that office romance, in most cases, do not have happy endings.
Ideally, office romance is a romantic or sexual relationship between two people employed by the same organisation. These relationships are common, driven by close proximity and shared long hours, but often necessitate discretion to manage potential conflicts of interest, favouritism, and distractions. The same goes with this dude and his workplace side chick.
This dude thinks people are not seeing that they are staying late together frequently, taking frequent breaks together, leaving the office at similar times as well as the increased private interaction or lack of eye contact in public.
We all know that potential issues that come with office romance include reduced productivity, favouritism accusations, and sexual harassment claims if the relationship ends poorly.
We all know that many companies require disclosure of such relationships, sometimes requiring employees to sign a “love contract” or consent agreement to mitigate legal risks and even this ministry that they work for has similar clauses in their employee-employer contracts and this is the reason the married ones are not allowed to be at the same school.
All Yours Truly can say for now is nothing more than just to say, Blabber is watching!
