OK here's my story its a long one so I hope u guys take the time to read this and help me out.
Ive worked for my employer for ten yrs. I love my job and the guy I work for. He would bend over backwards to help u out and compensates me very well for my duties. Prior to joining this company I worked for another company and the VP over there recently moved to a new company who is our rivals in the buisness we work in. The other day the former VP let's call him Damon which is a common name for a snake left me a note on my carto call him he may have an oppertunity for me over at this other company. So I called him and we spoke and I told him how the owner of my company treats me very well and I'm happy where I am and that I wasn't really looking for a move but Damon says just come meet with me tom and meet the owner of this company and hear what we have to offer and if it doesn't work out then it doesn't work out and at least u know u have an option with us in the future. Feeling good bout myself that someone else recognized my hardwork I said sure I'll swing by tom.
Today rolled around and I go there and were talking and he starts asking questions about certain accounts we have. I said Damon I don't feel comfortable telling u who we do buisness with a nd who we don't that's something that u would need to speak to the main office about. Well at that point he changed the subject and we made small talk for bout 5 more minutes and then he got a phone call and said I got to take this it was nice seeing u and keep in touch. I felt like complete shit realizing he wasn't interested in offering me shit it was all to try and get info out of me.
I left that place A. Feeling bad bout myself because he didn't want me he just used me and B. Feeling horrible cause I felt like I betrayed the guy that I owe everything I have in my life today. I know that I didn't give out any info but I'm just worried that certain info could potentially be used against my company to steal accounts away from us.
I wana call the owner and come clean and tell him what happened my girlfriend says I should if it will make me feel better my bro in law says its nutin to be worried bout people go on interviews everyday to see what options are out there for them and to just let it be. But I feel horrible that I even met with this guy knowing that I was happy where I was and never planned on going anywhere. Even if this guy had a good offer I was just planning on calling my owner and asking how secure my job was and explain the situation but not ask for more money. I'm already well compensated for what I do and would never wana put my owner over the barrel so to speak.
What should I do? Any advice would be appreciated
