It was due

I received a call from Boss, with signature frown. I was expecting his call. Probably two days ago.

But he only called me this evening, telling me to do my duties. And he is expecting that of me.

It was a bit weird, I know he has the best intentions and I know he was truly concerned. Who wouldn't be? His interest in this matter, was purely professional. And I knew it. He had a personal encounter and he was the best person to tell the story.

I had a 10 minute conversation with Boss. And a paper full of information.

I made the call Boss wanted me to make after I hung up. And I relayed the information, as I should. With additional, "He's going to sit you down and talk to you tomorrow if you do not see the importance of this conversation we are going to have"

And I was again cut short. I'll leave it in Boss' hands. He should have made the call direct instead of going through me. What did he expect me to be able to achieve?
