Imagine having to endure a week with your most difficult and annoying coworkers only to be reprimanded when you finally take the opportunity to enjoy a night off.
This employee was dragged to a week-long work conference where he was attending meetings and events on the clock for full days of work. Those hours of work were followed by endless meals and cocktails with his team. On the final night of the trip, the employee was excited to see that there was no after-work meal scheduled. He planned to use the evening to get some rest and catch up with his wife virtually.
Unfortunately, that seemed to be an issue for everyone else on the team. In fact, the employee's boss made him cancel those plans he made with his wife for an unscheduled dinner because apparently, it was tradition for everyone to go out on the final night. Look, socializing with your teammates can be important, but if you're having to repeatedly sacrifice your free time to do unpaid networking, you're going to start to resent your coworkers and employers more than anything else.
