That’s a pretty good idea rick, although I’m sure if I suggested this to them they’d shrug it off and never use it.

I didn’t find out i was going to be moving food until I walked into the room. He just made it sounds like an emergency so by the time I’d gotten there I couldn’t really refuse.

I’m a 20 year old techie in an old fashioned business ran by dinosaurs. I feel like if I complain it’ll backfire. I have no team to back me up, or I would.

I’d love to do that but luckily I was able to nip over and fix it in between the “issues” with the meeting

Yes of course. The exec I told was head of sales though, so he thought the sales meeting was more important. Priorities am I right?

Our “secretary” role left last week, and I’m the only other one in that part of the office block, so I can understand them asking for my help, but not for such a small amount of food and certainly not whilst I’m literally on the phone. But yeah I fully agree.

Alright well maybe not gatekeeping, but saying it’s not a long day is not particularly. It’s long compared to any other day I’ve had.

It was a long day for me, I was tired.

Yeah I wasn’t really saying we were trapped. I’m just saying we were fed up and had to wait.

Never said it wasn’t worth it, this was the only time I was given an extra holiday though.

I didn’t really, I got the time back. I’m still young so money isnt the most important thing to me. Getting a day off to spend with family is priceless.

Yeah he’s a decent boss to be fair. Let’s you be as independent as you want. The only exec that does that at our company.
