That’s Crazy

          husband when he would call. We all went to a club after work where

          Shannon had arranged for the supervisor's husband to meet her for a
          rendezvous. Things began to become pretty tense between her and

          her immediate supervisor.


               There were also obvious signs of Shannon’s behavior that should
          have been questioned, such as the fact that she befriended another
          lady  just  to  sleep  with  the  lady’s  boyfriend.  We  would  gather  at

          Shannon’s  place.  She  would  have  her  ex-boyfriend  and  current

          boyfriend there at the same time. She would end in one room kissing
          and doing who knows what with her ex, while her current boyfriend

          immediate supervisor and requested that she work under me. At the

          same time, Jerome, Shannon, Diane and I became four peas in a pot.
          Diane  had  begun  to  date  a  brother  who  eventually  became  her

          husband.  Shannon  became  friends  with  Diane’s  future  husband,
          Joseph, and had established a separate relationship with him outside

          of Diane. I knew this, and it did not feel right, but I never spoke up

          and told Diane.

               I also knew about Shannon's jealousy of Diane because she would

          always comment on Diane's looks and tried to get me to feed into
