Well... I didn't say anything to the boss.  I actually had two days of vacation and the boss is off all this week so we havn't even seen each other.

As for this employee, Besides just being a complainer lately, I  do believe she is vying for more money anyway now that I think about it.  

Also... as for chain of command... Its me.... but unofficially.  I work for a somewhat small company... about 25 employees.  There is my boss, who is the owner, and then there's me.  My official title is Administrative Assistant.  But I do mostly Office manager tasks.  I am HR, IT, accounting and basically keep everything running here at the office.  My boss is a bit of a chauvenist where as he doesn't believe women should be management so my role isn't officially a manager but he has told me that I am to be his eyes and ears for the office.  He wants me to relay stuff to him.   It was just this one instance that I wasn't quite sure how to handle.

As one person commented, I should have thought to ask the employee in question just for verification as to why she was telling me this.

Thanks for all the feedback so far.   Its definately interesting to see all the different views.
