Input: Text: so far my career has gone really well.  i'm in my early 30s, make six figures, and have been promoted every couple of years.  with the last promotion, everything has changed.  i've come from a position, like all of my previous positions that was "in the field" and moved into the corporate office.  since getting this position, i've felt lost and directionless most of the time.  it's a big departure from my previous experience directly managing operations, where i had seen a lot of success.  long story short, i've struggled to take hold of the job. 

this morning i was feeling particularly stressed.  not just because of this situation at work, but also my home life.  i won't get into that here because i don't want to post that on the internet.  needless to say though it has me stressed also.  this morning, after getting my most urgent work done, i needed to check out and think.  so i went to a food court in the building, zoned out for a couple of hours and then got lunch. 

now let me clarify here, that my position has a lot of leeway.  i typically travel several days a week.  it's not the type of job where not being at your desk means your are missing a lot, and my company cell phone is the way most people contact me.  in this instance however, the head of my department came looking for me to discuss something and of course i wasn't there.  he new i was in the office today, so rather than call me he came back again in a while.  he still didn't find me.  

i guess he came several times.  when i returned after lunch, he pulled me in his office wanting to know where i had been.  this is when i panicked and lied.  i told him i was on another floor meeting with a couple of different people.  i knew as soon as i did it, i fucked up.  he's sharp as can be, i knew he could tell i was full of shit.  he asked who i met with, and rather than come clean i lied about that.  

after he sent me away, i stewed at my desk.  i knew i had just fucked up big time.  i considered going back and coming clean.  before i did though, he called me back in.  i knew the gig was up.  he asked me again where i had been.  this was it, no pushing it further, he must have called to see if i was where i had said.  i came clean, apologized for lying and disrespecting him.  after scolding me, he sent me home and told me to cancel my travel plans next week.  told me he would discuss with my manager over the weekend, and we would handle this when i come in the office on tuesday. (monday is a holiday for us)

so here i am, knowing i've screwed up.  feeling like an piece of crap.  i'm worried i will lose my job, and feeling it would be justified.  this company doesn't take lies well, even small ones.  i have all weekend to worry about it.  i'm already torn between figuring out how to regain his trust and respect, and starting the search for a new job.

TIFU by lying to the head of my department
