Dear Rebecca & Burns,

I started a new job last month after six-months of unemployment. I love the company and I love my boss. Here's my problem. Last week, a different department head asked me to help his team with a project. It's been pretty time consuming. When my boss found out, he was very angry and confronted the other department head and his team. Now everyone is giving me the cold shoulder.

I can't afford to lose this job and I don't know how to fix this.
