I was so bloody angry at my place of work when they said they wanted to observe 3 min of silence (the time George Floyd was held down by a knee) and join people kneeling outside the place that I resolved when I heard them announce it, I was going to find the “Happy” song and play it at loud volume.
That is how mad I was, I was really going to do it.
Fortunately for me, I got embroiled in some task, and they never announced it over the PA, so it was come and gone before I remembered it.
I am glad I missed it that way. If I had heard the announcement, I might well have done it. I am glad I didn’t hear it.
I am still boiling mad about it. I would never, ever do that political crap to any employee who worked for me.
Ever.
I thought this was supposed to be for tomorrow.
Did your company do it today or is it scheduled for tomorrow.
I would be equally disgusted and angry.
Stuff like that has no place in the workplace.
