Update: Arrogant CEO Demands IT Contractor Serve Him A Cup of Coffee, Contractor Walks Out

This IT guy is retired but still contracts with his old employer, and he was called in to help one of their clients with their "ancient inventory system." When the client's CEO sauntered in demanding a cup of joe from the IT guy, things were about to go very poorly.

This lengthy tale was told by Redditor u/ShelLuser42, who shared their story to the r/Idontworkherelady subreddit, a growing subreddit where people share stories where they have been mistaken for an employee. Typically these tales involve Karens accosting other random customers and demanding service, but occasionally these power-hungry suited types pop up in a story or two.

Their initial post was well received, prompting them to provide another update a few days later detailing some of the aftermath. This second thread is represented as "The Fallout" section of the story on items #18 and #19.

Read on to see the screenshots of the story below.
