a new guy at work got an award at some conference for a paper he presented..

this is an email from one of the bosses.

does it read to you like hes taking credit?.. 🤭

Hi all,

Congratulations everyone on a successful WIOA conference contribution from ********.

I am extremely proud of what we achieved this year and of everyone's hard work in making it a success including 2 great papers being presented, a successful Women in Water breakfast, and to top it off Adam winning his award.

These things don't happen without support from everyone up and down the line, so thanks all for helping me and the broader team achieve this.

Cheers

YES,😑

His...

. so thanks all for helping me

part is VERY "telling".
- if he really thought of you, (incl. himself), all as a team, he wouldn't have to define himself from the

. .broader team

At least he mentioned the guy 🤷‍♀
But the second part kinda gives you the heebie jeebies that his boss wont know those details 😶

Trying to write it off as one for the team. My other concern is the "Women in Water breakfast"? Is water the only item in the breakfast? And why are women in water in the first place?
