Knock on the door

One thing you have to remember when inside the office and a door’s closed? Knock on the door first before you open it! I learned that the hard way…

I was looking for my boss who sent me a text message asking for the presentation folders that I created for her. Thinking that she sent the message from the boardroom, I barged in there and went directly for the woman sitting with her back to the door. Oh, was I ever wrong! It wasn’t my boss! It was the head of finance from the head office having a teleconferencing meeting with the offshore CEOs!

I was reprimanded for barging into the boardroom and hearing stuff I shouldn’t be privy to. Even when I told them that I didn’t hear anything as I was focusing on the folders that I carried.
