Ugh, this is such a white whine
but my cleaning lady broke a bottle of on of my perfumes on Friday and just peaced out without saying anything/leaving a note.
I kind of noticed something was off when I came home, because my bathroom smelled like my perfume, when I got home, and while the scent tends to linger, it’s not magic, and it dissipates within an hour or two. I figured she was curious and spritz it or whatever, creepy and weird, but not a crime.
I could have sworn the bottle looked a little more empty, but she also moved it so I couldn’t be certain. When I went to put some on on Saturday, the lid was off-kilter, but I thought nothing of it, until I removed it and noticed the atomizer part was detached effectively turning the bottle into an inexpensive paperweight.
It’s a cheap Gap scent from last summer that I’m pretty sure was a one off, but I got it on sale, so it’s not a huge loss. I just like to layer it with my everyday scent to give it a bit of depth. It probably cost me under $30, but it’s the principle of the matter.
She was even still puttering around when I got home that evening, so she did have a chance to bring it up, and just flat out opted not to.
A lie of omission is still a lie people, no matter how inconsequential.
