So today I, along with my department, am meeting with the CEO of my company. (there were several people hired the same week as was I)
1. He doesn't like a lot of people in the room so only a select few are gong to be present in the conference room (not sure why) the rest of the folks that were invited will video call in. I am one of the select few to be physically present. my boss says he has his reasons, I was not told why.
2. He doesn't like for others to "over dress" so I was told not to wear a suit, but for me to wear a button down with slacks.
What do you guys make of that?
NOTE: I am not sure how he feels about facial hair so I removed my beard.

Meeting done 2 and a half hours, guy is really down to earth, mad kool very laid back.
I still don't understand what everyone was whispering around here about, I am 100% sure I could have gone in there with a suit, not even sure what they said about him not wanting too many people in the room is true as well
Also I shaved off my damn beard for nothing, the man has a beard himself....
Anyway, Onward...On the list for Bannukah

You should have asked him if he likes goats.
I never trust anyone who doesn't like goats.This above all..
To thine ownself be true..
And it must follow, as the night the day..
Thou can'st not then be false to any man..

You guys are hilarious for real!!
Anyway the reason why my boss wanted me in the meeting is that he announce he is resigning, his last day is Sept 30th and he wanted to introduce me to the CEO (since he was the one who hired me) and they discussed who I would be reporting to now which is my bosses boss for the meantime till they find his replacement. So its the CEO, the SVP, my boss then me, so for now I will be reporting to the SVP and they should be sending out a new Org Chart.
We also went out for drinks last night and had a great going away party for him.Last edited by bodyhard; 09-13-2017 at 04:34 PM.

The new guy always gets messed with
The alternatives are less pleasant.
i) BH added somebody at work as a friend on social media and alarm bells went off, so they put him in that situation to see how he reacted and so his boss could watch his interactions in the meeting.
ii) there is some diversity related thing going on.Screw nature; my body will do what I DAMN WELL tell it to do!
The only dangerous thing about an exercise is the person doing it.
They had the technology to rebuild me. They made me better, stronger, faster......

LOL
Boss - "Guys, new company policy is that we must have at least 25% minority participation at all of our meetings."
Worker - "But we only have 1 minority, the new guy."
Boss - "Chit. Okay, new rule, we can only hold really, really small meetings. No larger than 4 people, and he has to be one of them. The rest can just call in."ALL I ASK IS ALL YOU GOT FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES
