writes:My now ex-Gen. Manager left our place of business under suspicious circumstances. The business had been growing. and getting better since he opened it. Great staff and management team. Award wining company. Anyway, since the day he hired me, he has become for a lack of a better word, "careless". He started spending more time away from work. In the sense of only staying shorter periods of time. Then mainly working shiftes opposite of mine. Whenever he saw me, when our shift overlaps, he hurries away from view and gets through his shift to leave. If he is leaving and I happen to be near the door, he lingers to talk with someone before having to pass me near the door. If I walk away he hurridly walks out the door. He thought my back was turned. He would nervously apologize to me for weird and small reasons. Then lately, he had a meeting with us, where he surprisingly announced his departing. He was leaving to go back to his hometown for good. He gave a vague reason about a parent who passed away a couple months prior, and he got emotional.He even spoke about how he got a get away trip with his wife for an award he got, at which he turned to look at me. Anyway, he watched me the entire time that morning after the announcement. The a couple days later, on his last day, he came by work in regular clothes to do some last minute things.I was passing him by as he was walk out the door. He started to say goodbye, then whisperingly called me over yo mention some irrlevant and untrue information about my work. Later that night, he suddenly pops in at work in the same clothes, went to speak to someone, then after 20 minutes, walked pass me from behind, touched my shoulders, and said goodbye. Its been two weeks now. A couple days ago, I heard he had angryly ripped a phone off a wall in the back of the building.

 Are you trying to piece together evidence suggesting that you somehow affected his work and caused his departure?
It does sound like he was under some stress but whether that was your presence in the workplace or some other personal or professional life drama of his own isn't really a problem for you now, is it?
I remember an earlier question from you where I think this was the boss who gave preferred treatment to another female employee. And you were annoyed by that. If it was this boss/manager, wouldn't you be thankful the guy was gone now?
