'I don't have to answer your calls, but you have to answer mine': Employee gets punished for missing a non-urgent phone call from his boss, points out the hypocrisy of the boss's policy

Bosses tend to think that the rest of the workforce is contractually obliged to bow down at their feet. Whether it's the fancy suits or the overly dressy shoes, anyone in a position of power over their subjugates feels entitled to a certain level of respect in the workplace– even if they haven't earned it. Old school types will still argue that hard-work earns the people's respect, but a nepo-baby boss or a CEO-type expects the royal treatment entirely based on their status or title, nothing else.

But when company policy is established by one of these arrogant types, they tend to forget to include themselves in 'mandatory' activities. And u/warrenomaha, a banker at a very busy bank, realized exactly how openly hypocritical his boss was willing to be in order to maintain his asinine expectation. Scroll down to read about the insolence of C-level bosses when it comes to hypocrisy and enjoy this employee's response to it.
