Dear Queenie,
My boss is quite well-off, maybe you’d even call him rich. The problem is he’s always telling me about the things he has and how much they cost and the things he’s going to get and how much he’s going to spend on them – as if I care! To hear him tell, he spends more in a single month than he pays me for the whole year.
Queenie, how can I shut him up without losing my job?—Fed up
Dear Fed up,
Tell him it is just amazing how much things cost these days and ask him for a raise.
