Does the Carpet Match the Curtains?

If you're cringing right now, you probably know what this question is really asking. No, it's not about interior design.


This is a question I was asked by my direct manager at my first job out of college. It was an executive leadership development program. I can't remember what I did or said in response but probably just laughed nervously with wide eyes. I was in shock. I recall thinking about his wife - did she know she was married to someone who asked such things? Yikes.


I quit shortly after. I had relocated for this job. I needed a job right after college because well, I needed insulin to survive (and insurance).


I had forgotten all about this until a few weeks ago - I guess this was my first exposure to an unhealthy work environment. What a disappointment.
