Go to your VP the one who gave you the budget. Your Supervisor cannot retaliate against you. If he decides to do so, go back to your VP and he will stand up for you. You should listen to the VP because he overrules anything the Sup. says!

Yes you should let it be know what he is doing and wanting you to hide for him. Not only if you don’t say something now but later if found out and then they know you knew you could be just as much a part of it as he is. Make sure that you do have some physical proof. Tape record his conversation with you but remember recordings can not be used in a court of law without them know they are being recorded, but they can sure help prove yourself in a situatuin like this. Good Luck

Confirm in writing to your supervisor about your plans for the project execution, revised budget allocations and check with him if he wants any modifications. Let the copy of your letter go to the VP, so that he is not in dark about budget allocations. It is a delicate situation. I have passed through similar situation in past. Juniormost empoyee is always a scapegoat under similar situations.

This is unethical. Business make money by delivering a service (projects). Your supervisor is stealing from one project to use on another.
You need to report this to your HR Employee Ethics Committee you are protected! You should save any evidence to prove your case, email or verbal conversations that transpire between you and your supervisor. Everyone has a computer in their office so it can be setup as a recording point. Cover yourself at all times, you are responsible to the VP that gave you the budget.

I say if you believe in what your doing is right than do it, you should not back down from a bully that thinks their above the rest, but be prepared for a fight and hang in there you you will come out ahead.

Make sure you cover your butt so you don’t become the “scapegoat” for your boss going against the best interests of the company. If you already mentioned discussing it with the VP you’ve already stepped over the line, so you better follow suit or you are going to get stuck in the middle. One word of caution, I have yet to see a VP get involved in a worker/supv. dispute….that’s why they have supv. Whether they are corrupt or not, there is a lot of gray area that upper level management just refuses to handle–many feel they are “above” those kinds of issues. I hope for your sake, this won’t hold true in your situation. Good Luck!

Don’t be a scaredy cat. Tell the man who gave you the money. He gave it to you for a purpose, don’t let him down.
Are you usually a timid person. Find the lion i know you have in your soul and let him loose. Take a chance, you won’t get anywhere if you don’t take a risk! Good Luck, Leo
