‘[I'll] smile for a raise': Boss messages his employee privately asking her to ‘smile more’ in their weekly teams video call; she refuses and hilarity ensues in the comments

Women everywhere are accustomed to weird old men asking them to 'smile more'. The classic back-handed diss has become so frequent in everyone's life that we've all learned to roll our eyes and move on with our day, well-aware that 'smiling more would make us seem so much prettier'. I'll smile later when something's funny, but will never do so just because a random stranger suggested it as a beauty tip. However, this kind of comment is a little more out of pocket in the workplace.

In fact, saying 'smile more' to a coworker, manager, or employee in a professional environment might even be something you might wanna bring up to HR…

In this story, one woman flipped the script on her creepy boss after he messaged her privately during her weekly Teams call. While all of her other male coworkers had straight faces in their meeting, her boss sent her a ping asking specifically if she could give a little smile. Yuck. Scroll for the full workplace drama that'll make YOU smile (genuinely, at least) when you read the hilarity in the comment section.

Up next, this irreplaceable employee got fired after creating a program that improved his factory's workflow, after being denied for his offer to sell it to the company, he walked away, taking his intellectual property with him.
