Maybe she's trying to get me fired. I suppose I could ask her, but I'm almost afraid to ask.

She was consulting for four years before coming here - I don't know why she chose to quit consulting to work in a company, but she was not working for an employer before us.

And the CEO told me that she had approached him over 10 years ago, and a couple of different times over the years about employment. And each time, he rejected her. She approached him again this time around, and he said yes.... and I think out of desperation because our Director had just left.
