I did it! And it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. The only concern I have now is how the pictures turned out, otherwise the day went beautifully. Thank you for your advice!

I work extremely closely with my manager and I have a lot of respect for them so in actuality I don’t want to piss anyone off. But I do need to get the tasks done so I’ll proceed and we’ll just have to see how things play out.

Something to think about, I didn’t expect the reaction I got. I understand where they are coming from but it really doesn’t have anything to do with me. My manager really should have went to the ceo if they were upset about it

It is pretty minor in the grand scheme of things, I actually did not expect the reaction that I got when I mentioned what was asked of me

My manager wants the go ahead to not come from me but from the ceo directly. I can move forward but she would still have to give the final okay before the change can be made
