Ridiculous request (this happens REGULARLY!)
Scene: Sitting at my desk at my office in Dinky-Town, USA. I'm working vigorously on a important project that needs to be finished within the next 30 minutes.
My Boss: (via email) Please email David at XYZ Trucking Company and tell him to load the glycerine on Friday instead of Monday. Thanks.
Me: (in my head) You have GOT to be kidding me.
Me: (via email) Hi David. Please load the glycerine on Friday instead of Monday. Thanks.
Now, tell me....do you see a gross disregard for the whole concept of "efficiency" and "time management" or...oh, I don't know...intelligence?
Un-Be-lieve-Able.
I just don't get it. Do you...?
Comments anyone....?
