Well Peter Luke, I did not get a chance to say anything but he came back from a meeting drunk again on Friday. I thought about what you said about "our little secret" One of my co-workers looked at me and motioned her hand up and down like bringing a bottle up to your mouth. He looked at me, looked down and almost fell trying to sit in his chair. I said nothing. I continued with what I had to do and act like I did not see him. I thought about what Jim said in that maybe I should say something. As I stated earlier, he is a "contractor' working on a very big project for the Government. He sat down and began typing. I am thinking, "what in the world is he typing over there and drunk" I then decided to go to my manager and have a meeting with her. She went over to him to ask a question and he was asleep. She woke him up and asked her question and she smelled it and saw it in his eyes. Another co-worker saw it when he came in and called his contracting manager and requested a meeting with him. Thank you "Jim" for that valuable advice. I am so glad I said something before the other person called his manager. This project is too big and we need to be on point. Just asking myself, if you went to a meeting with a client that took all day and you leave at 4pm why come back to the office at 3:20 drunk? Why didn't he just go straight home? I have a young lady here who is young and I adopted as my work daughter to show her the ropes. She is no more than 23yrs old. He is 52 years old. I caught him looking at her in a uncomfortable way. I went up to him and asked him what he was looking at? He said, the devil told him to look at her butt. He said I know its wrong. Before he had a chance to continue I told him with a very firm voice, "she is off limits...DO YOU HEAR ME!!!" You stay away from her....DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR???? He said I'm sorry but I will be honest, I have been watching her and you caught me again because you are just so d... nosey. I said, "You heard what I said!!!!" That was another confirmation that let me know that I did the right thing. When I was preparing to leave, he got up from his desk and was standing at the elevator leaning back and forth. I think he was waiting for me. But I thought about what you said, "never administer alone." So, I got to the elevator and said have a good weekend and got on the elevator. He just stood there looking like he was expecting me to say more. When the elevator closed, I asked God to protect him. That was really hard to do....Walk away like that. But I knew he would have only given me excuses and lies. And, in the state he was in, he would not have received me ministering to him.
I think he will be released because I am not the only one who saw him on Friday. Secret is out....I also did not like the way he was looking at my work daughter. I don't know how far to the bottom he has to go before he wakes up but I pray: Father, protect him, deliver him, save him and comfort him. Bring him through this attack and give him the strength to seek You. Give him a sober mind long enough to say "Yes" to You and to ask for healing and deliverance. In Jesus name I pray...AMEN
