Innocuous in These Foolish Things

Had my expensive consultation with the employment attorney today. Go back a few entries in case you’re wondering what this is about. I don’t feel like rehashing any of it right now.
Bottom line, the attorney said my email to John “Cray Cray” Instagrammer was innocuous and that Chief Cutie doesn’t have a real case, but that if she were just crazy enough, she could try to go after me. He added that if she did, it would be unwise, very expensive, and she’d also have to report it to any company she’s trying to sell to.
He thinks that her threats about calling any future company and disparaging me are grounds for a case, but in doing so, could be poking a skunk and that could also get nasty.
His advice is to LAY LOW.
He also said that if John “Cray Cray” IG-er were to contact him about a case, that he wouldn’t take the case. The dude is truly unhinged.
I’m sad that any of this happened.
I’m NOT sad that I moved here, but it’s not the place for jobs like the one I do. The search is on to figure out where I go and what I do next…
Stay tuned,
GS

I mean that all sounds like it's how it should be. Hopefully another chief designer role will pop up right next door! Xx

That's good news. I think it's best to get the hell out of dodge.

This situation is so crazy. I want to ask how it could possibly be any crazier, but I'm afraid that the ways in which it could be are endless! Shoot. I hate this for you.

I wonder if she'll even be in business in five years.
Sounds like you got good advice. Here's to moving forward!
