I don't know what the letter says....

Work Story # 4
He and someone from the district office sat in my office and asked me to type a letter as they dictated it to me.  The letter was for one of our student's parent who we had been having issues with.  Both "He" and the district office person contributed equally to what the letter said.  

The next day, I overheard him talking on the phone with the parent.  He said, "The district will be mailing a letter to you soon with their decision for your son."  When the parent asked what the letter said, he answered, "I'm sorry, but I really have no idea.  I've never even seen the letter.  The district has not shown it to me.  They said they would mail me a copy when they mailed you yours."  

My internal monologue at that moment: Hmm... I'm pretty sure I remember you dictating that letter to me while i typed it!   And last time I was in your office, it was sitting on your desk.
