Head banging

Friday I got a nice email from X warning me that he had had a private meeting with Dean Y and Vice-Provost Z, and, partly as a result of what X said, he feared Y and Z were going to publicly throw me under the bus at Monday's meeting.

I just got a call from Z warning me that X was going to throw me under the bus at the meeting.

wtf?

ETA: Meeting went fine, no buses in sight - go figure. Dean Y even said something to the effect of "this $stuff is really complicated so we're glad to have Lisa manage it."

Ugh, that sounds awful! Hoping you manage to dodge the bus and various backstabbing colleagues.

Yuck! Here's hoping they're confused, not crazy/manipulative/whatever. Good luck avoiding the bus!

i hate politics so much.
hope the bus lands squarely on whoever's trying to land ANYONE under it.

Meanwhile, you just keep that C.Y.A file handy.

Eep. I hope that the bus never shows. :-(

Yikes! Congrats on dodging the invisible, intangible bus, and possibly non-existent bus.
