Odd choice not to link to the article or even say where it was from…
Anyway, I can’t imagine having a boss who asked me to make toast for them.
Maybe I’ve been lucky and I’m sure part of it is because I’m a 6ft 4in white man but I think the only boss I’ve ever had that was mean or unreasonable was when I was like 14 and detassling one summer and the other kid who was 17 or so and was in charge was a total ass. As an adult I’ve had a couple bosses who weren’t good at managing people or keeping up with the demands of the job but they never asked me to do anything other than my job.
But then again I don’t at all agree with her opening: “You’re supposed to be obsequious when you’re an employee, right? You’re supposed to give in to people.” I always treated my bosses like people.
