Help!
My boss showed me an email he had received today from a third party that had originated from a former co-worker (subordinate) of mine. In the email, the former co-worker alleges that I used poor judgement in some business decisons, spoke disparagingly about other subordinates, and worst of all, claims that I stared at her breasts on one occasion. None of this is true. Needless to say, this has shocked and upset me greatly.... Although my boss claims to believe me, and trust me, I worry that this has tarnished my reputation with him and will cost me going forward. He said that he's going to "check me out" with some of my other subordinates, which I'm not worried about since I believe I've done nothing wrong. Again, I'm more concerned about the perception that this creates (i.e., having this thing happen to begin with). What should I do??
Thanks!
