'Company event was a cringe fest': CEO requires underpaid employees to attend company event, gloats about himself the whole time
No one wants to go to mandatory company events on your day off, so managers and bosses better make sure that employees who are required to go have a good time. First of all, these company events are usually after a tough work week, they usually involve way too much schmoozing for anyone's good, and they're usually wildly inconvenient in terms of location and time. All that happened with this Redditor, who was also an underpaid employee who primarily decided to attend the event because it meant there would be a free meal for her and her family.
So, she and her husband begrudgingly attended the event and it was all going as smoothly as it could have for a while. Everyone seemed to be in good spirits. The kids got their free meals. However, everything changed as soon as the tone-deaf CEO of the company decided to open his mouth and give a speech.
He proceeded to brag about her perfect his family is and how great the company is doing despite the fact that so many employees in attendance were struggling to make ends meet. Yet he continued to go on and on as if he had some chronic version of main character syndrome. The speech was about as cringe as it gets, and you can tell from the reactions from folks in the comments section that this is not a singular experience. So many employees have had to endure these kinds of speeches from their bosses. Maybe one magical day in the future, they will get the message that no one wants to hear this nonsense.
