'He was an idiot who wasted his money on get rich quick schemes doomed to fail': Woman's boss' financial troubles get exposed to whole office including boss' wife who is an employee, woman asks them to take their issues elsewhere

If there's anything that has stayed consistent with the modern age, it's workplace drama. Even if you work remotely, a coworker's questionable behavior can translate over all mediums. It's best to keep a level head and stick to your tasks at hand while airing out your grievances with your work besties in the break room or over clandestine Slack channels. Sometimes, workplace drama can even be a uniting force among many a disgruntled employee. Coming together over one colleague, no one can stand, and this strengthens employee morale like no other incident. It's one of the most rewarding parts of suffering through a 9-5.

However, workplace drama can get really tricky when it affects your productivity in real-time. Especially if the person causing all of the issues is your supervisor. And even more so when said supervisor involves their partner in the workplace. When push comes to shove, you have to decide if it's worth it to take a stand or to swallow your pride and continue on with your day. That's what OP is facing here, when her boss' personal financial issues come to a head during work hours. Is it OP's place to make a comment? Read on to see how you would react.
