Leap Aim Coiled. That's the name of the place I have nightmares about in my very comfortable new bed with my guy snuggled next to me.
This must be my 15+ holiday in this very cube. I've come to the conclusion that my boss Michael doesn't have much going on outside of this office and therefore subjects anyone around him to being his holiday entertainment every time one rolls around. Minus holidays, he is in and out of the office inconsistently at best, he could show up at 7AM, at 10AM, or not at all. Of course we (the sales staff in particular) are always expected to be in... regardless of the fact we are 100% commission.... and almost more so expected on holidays.
On the bigger holidays like Thanksgiving when everyone is trying to get out of the office as early as possible Michael will wait until noon to announce that we are doing an office lunch at 2PM. Really? 2PM? I eat everyday at noon, but now I am forced to wait until two so that I can put out the team player vibe. We will all walk down together when the clock strikes 2 to go to our "favorite" mediocre burger place referred to as Cheers. Once there we all have to order, listen to Kevin talk about that major deal he is going to close (even though we all no it's not coming in), eat, and drink a few beers until it's either 5PM or Michael is ready to leave - which ever comes first.
Realization to Michael, the co-owner of Leap Aim Coiled: What you are deeming as a thank you for all the work we do is actually a punishment. Cheers!
