'He crossed a line': 30-year-old boyfriend answers call from 28-year-old girlfriend's boss and tells him that she's "too busy relaxing to talk"

It's hard to imagine intervening in your spouse's workplace drama, even to vouch for them, but especially to side against them. There are certain lines that should not be crossed when it comes to your professional and personal lives. Muddying the waters between the two is never a good idea. This is doubly—no, triply true when it comes to your spouse's workplace, outside of being an agreeable plus one at workplace holiday parties and functions, you should never have anything to do with their workplace. You hold little to no importance when it comes to your spouse's professional workplace… It's almost like you just don't exist when it comes to their working life, except as a means of private support.  

This boyfriend inexplicably answered his girlfriend's phone when her boss was calling to harass her late at night after hours, and then proceeded to tell her boss that she was "Too busy relaxing to talk" in some bizarre alpha bro move. His behavior was condemned online when his girlfriend shared the experience with this online community.
