I want to start by defending my boss who is a super great lady ... she's just completely not interested in handbags and that's fine.

But she knows that *I* am.... and she told me today that she had a friend who "sold Coach purses" and she was going to email me some pictures of the new Coach bags she had in stock.

My initial reaction was :hrmm: combined w/ the fact that I thought it was sweet my boss knows I love Coach and made the connection between me and Coach (haha)!

Well, attached are three pictures she sent me.... (she sent about 50!) .....needless to say they aren't real and they are :throwup:.

I don't want to be disrespectful to my boss because we have a great working relationship... I just politely told her thanks but since it was near Christmas I wasn't buying myself anything.

But :cursing:.... where do people even FIND these fugly bags???? And then to try and sell them to people...sheesh.
 
thats because they sell them @ the mall like this!!!!!!

Wow that first one is major:throwup:

These are not just knockoffs they are full on illegal FAKES!!!!!! :cursing:

I wouldn't say anything to your boss, she is the one who employs you, LOL, but the lady selling them, I would do something if I could :bagslap:
 
Kudos to you for preserving your working relationship with your boss - no reason to make her feel bad as she's not even into the whole world of designer handbags anyway. But her friend? She needs a good boot to the face!
