CRAZY BOSS REQUESTS
HuffPost asked people for the strangest requests they’ve received from their boss. Some of the stories:
– “She snapped her fingers when she wanted something. Would shout ‘FOOD!’ from her office, meaning ‘Get me lunch.’”
– “I was asked to follow someone to their appointment to see if they were actually going to a job interview. I just pretended to follow the person and lied to my boss about where the person went.”
– “Boss said,‘My wife is coming in later. Can you order some Kate Spade perfume and get all the porn off my computer?’”
– “My boss said, ‘Can you not say good morning to me when I arrive at the office? It causes me to lose my focus.’”
– “A bird flew into the grill on my boss’ car while he was driving to work, and he asked me to get rid of it.”
– “The most ridiculous thing I had to do was find raw, unpasteurized goat’s milk for his family while they were traveling, have it packed and delivered to the private jet.”
– “Boss said, ‘Hey, can you get $15,000 in cash for my trip to Vegas?’”
– “My boss said ‘Hey, can you clean up the crumbs from my office floor? It was a messy lunch.’”
– “He asked me to sew a hole in his pocket while he was wearing his pants. He didn’t go change; he just wore them and pulled the pocket out for me to sew.”
* Let me guess – all these happened right before The Great Resignation.
* We have more responses, but the boss is asking me to stop reading this and get to traffic.
* And you wonder why people don’t want to go back in to the office.
* Don’t you hate when a boss expects their personal assistant to act like they were his own personal assistant?
* There’s a reason they’re called a “boss,” as in, “boss you around.”
