Phrases I hope to never hear again

Excuse me red can I speak to you in my office please

"If there's anything I can do for you let me know."

Start calling those peoples bluffs.

Same. My current boss is constantly wanting to schedule meetings for almost literally everything.

I have reason to believe you don't have a boss and as a squatter you just steal belongings that were left behind

Can you stay late?

Fuck i hate capacity

This thread has been flagged for termination.

I had a boss and mentor once, and he was old school, pushing 70, and he would do that and would ask you what you were up too this weekend and then ask you to work the weekend. But, he always just happily tossed random 3-5K raises at you throughout the entire year. Could be 4 or 5 times. No dumbshit annual reviews, just if you are performing and working hard, here have another bone. Call you in his office, good work, thanks for doing that, hand you a nice letter.

Eventually all the old partners got bought out and it turned into the annual review shit but still being asked to work weekends and evenings. Believe they called it "One Firm". As in were all one. I was done shortly after that.

Oh and annual reviews with HR rather than with your actual boss. HR's little performance review checklist, tick box.

Guy you know the dude isnt going to answer. He likely pounds nails into his own skull.

"Its time for your annual evaluation."
