Stupid corporate requests/comments
we have a car coming at 10:00..they call to say there will be a 5-10 minute delay... my boss asks me to call the car service back and PUSH THEM ALONG...ok sure that will really do anything
we need to order food for 6 pple...food for 6 pple is ordered... i am told there was not enough food...
we need to order food for 6 people so i order food for 8 people..i am told we ordered too much food...
ook next time i will pick each piece food and mathemattically calculate each portion, by each persons body weight to see what amount of food they will each..
we are a million dollar corporation, i think u can afford the extra sandwich

Re: Stupid corporate requests/comments
 I'm sorry girlie, but that entire post made me laugh
(mostly because THAT happens to me at least 2x a week, maybe more, and I've been doing this lousy job foreva!! )
Just remember - we, the little people, can NEVER win ... nor will we ever do EVERYTHING right in the bigwigs eyes!
Its the "law" when it comes to the corporate world

Re: Stupid corporate requests/comments
by me, when there's a meeting there's always so much food. u don't know how much a person will eat. maybe u could suggest this...have them ask the caterer how much food would be needed

that is true, we do that here as well
BUT I see Michi's point... when the extra food is around and getting charged to the company (or client in our case) the big shots LOVE to have a fit about it, "just because"
Though I do have to Laugh when there is extra food around, somehow that news travels faster than CNN and you find the same 10 people dashing around the firm, just to get a little free food

OMG!! I can't believe she is a grown woman and doesn't know her SS#!! When I worked in a law firm a few years ago the attorneys made so much money! I had attorneys calling and asking how much they earned- they made so much money they never looked at their paystubs!

at least you never had to get "feminine" products for a VJ's skanky girlfriend...
ETA: 5 minutes before airtime on a live show!
Oh my gosh, I'm sure that you have seen/heard it ALL in your line of work!! I love that you have all sorts of juicy gossip on celebrities and such
Which VJ? Who Who??
