Have you ever been accused of being unprofessional? Maybe because you didn't wear a shirt to office, or used casual language while writing a rather serious report? We've all been there, but it looks like desi bosses have taken their expectations of professionalism on a whole new level.
In a post that went viral on Reddit, it can be seen how an employee's simple "Hey" was enough to trigger the boss. The boss immediately went on a rant and spoke about how the employee should have simply said "Hi". The employee responded by saying that "Hey" wasn't unprofessional, especially since the boss messaged him on his personal Whatsapp number.
To this, the boss said, "I am not insisting my ideology on you. If you understand it, fine; or you will understand it sooner or later."
