DEAR ABBY: My boss gave me diamond earrings for Christmas. I am a married woman and he is a married man.
I know his wife thinks this was an inappropriate present. I am torn. What should I do? -- WORKING WOMAN IN PENNSYLVANIA
DEAR WORKING WOMAN: Return the earrings, and tell your boss you are not comfortable accepting them knowing that his wife feels they were an inappropriate gift. The last thing you need is a boss whose wife resents you.
