Yes, and I got fired for not knowing. I was new to the city so I didn’t recognize the famous local sports journalist who demanded to see the doctor who also worked with the famous local sports team. Normally no one gets to walk into a doctors office and see the doc immediately, so I told them to sit down and wait - I was gone the next day.

    They fired you over that? You followed their rules! They should have a vip card or something if they wanted to allow some people in. I'm sorry man, they fucked you there.

    I mean they could’ve said “I’m new let me ask someone.” If they’re legit they’re probably paying out the ass for that.

    In that case as an employee you also risk annoying your boss who is now pulled into this altercation that you could have handled. Then the fact that they were fired over this shows they weren't a good boss anyway, so I can understand the hesitancy to bring them in.

    I mean they could just say "Do I let XYZ in immediately" and the boss just has to say yes no.

    Right, what about the other 5 people that day who also claimed they were important though? Do you bug your boss every time? Working service it was near daily where someone would claim to know the owner or don't you know who I am or something
