I’m confused...

[Noisydad]

I’m confused...
The boss and owner of my work is soooo concerned about our welfare during these days of uncertainty, lockdown and social distancing that we’re not allowed more than one person at a time in the lunch room. We’re not allowed to sit in there and have a cuppa. We’re not allowed to congregate around the factory. BUT... the boss gets car loads of visitors that cram into his office for closed door meetings and go for a stroll around the works together.
Can someone clear my confusion?

[Oldbloke]

Your not confused. Two sets of rules in operation mate. 1 for u, 1 for him.

[Ziege]

Unfortunately he is the boss, so unless ya wanna alert the authorities that he and his aren't observing social distancing and so on there's probably very little you can do

[marksman]

money talks and bu!!s**t walks
do as l say not what l do

[Oldbloke]

Less time in lunch room = more work and $

Simple really.

[straightshooter]

It's really really simple to understand. Really.
Assuming you aren't a government employee.
Do you pay him or does he pay you?
If you are a government employee then stop whining because you've got it pretty good anyway..

[womble]

Perhaps i can simplify things further for you
In the workforce it is the role off the boss to be a c***.
Your role as the employee is to be his bitch.
Any more questions and theres the door.
Now get back to work.

I might add. If the business how “oportunity for growth” then you need to “learn how to suck dick”.
With your hard earned promotion (and sore knees) you can be a minor or mid level tier c***.
Another option is to be self employed and be your own c***.

In the beginning God created adam and all the body parts had an argument to see who should be boss. The brain said he should be boss because he had to do all the thinking, the hands said they should be boss because they did all the work, the knees said they should be boss because they had to carry everyone else, they all started fighting until the asshole spoke up then they all started laughing saying the asshole did nothing....
the asshole went on strike...
within 1 week the brain was hurting the hands were shaking and the knees were trembling...
they all agreed the asshole could be boss.

I hope this helps with your confusion

I think if you stop digging so deep for an answer Noisy, you'll find the answer to your question, in fact lies in the reasoning behind you asking it here, instead of directly to your boss...

(this cryptic reasoning is just my way of translating all the answers above into a spiritual form... )

Just keep ordering pizzas. Could be interesting.

I’ve got a small bottle of 6 million scoville hot sauce - you should see people’s (bosses) faces When they get offered free cut / catered sandwiches when they take that first bite...for the first few seconds you can see they are like...ummm...something is not right...then it hits. You want social distancing? Nothing like people spluttering drool out of their mouths with their eyes running like taps to get ppl to move away.
It’s called black mamba no 6.

[Ziege]

I drink that sauce like it's a soothing mint milkshake

[TassieTiger]

A match head size amount of this sauce has most ppl running To fridge for x multiple glasses of milk. It’s the hottest bloody thing I’ve ever tasted x 100.

But noisy might get the last laugh. Boss might get cpvid19 and fall off his perch.

[pomemax]

The covid19 distancing rules are not his rules or your rules they are the government if he is not following them in his space that ok ask him to keep out of your space and remind him that he is putting you and other workers in jeopardy . Gets back to you do you feel your job is worth dying over 250,000 dead from covid 19 world wide you decide .

Some people seem to be immune to the effects of capsaicin.
There was one of these bastards in the lunch group where I once worked who always ordered prawn sambal and always had it all to himself as well as all the the other stuff that was ordered.

[Oldbloke]

It was happening where my daughter works. The "shop" large company, wasnt providing gloves or sanitiser and shop assistants were forced to be shoulder to shoulder with customers at self serve checkouts. Worksafe fixed it in no time flat. 1800136089

Yeah I can tell it's spicy, it's hot damn hot, but all in all it doesn't stop me being able to eat or make me choke or anything, still makes nose run a bit and sweat a little but not some of the reactions I've seen others have
