I used to work for a restaurant company that asked corporate staff to work in the restaurants one day per year plus clean the office kitchen once every six months. I’ve never seen so much non Union worker solidarity in opposition to these tiny tiny ass requests.

So … There’s finally going to be some employees in there?

Good. As an engineer in a factory I’m sometimes called to help meet a shipment (we’re not well run) and I stand by that if it wasn’t necessary it would be good. Leadership needs to understand the base level value add of a company

I’ve done shadowing of other roles at a couple jobs. Honestly it’s kinda fun, you learn a lot about other peoples problems so you can do your job better but also it’s pretty fun, like getting a whole new job for a day

Honestly this is a good policy that most companies should do. It’s easy to ignore problems that don’t affect oneself, so make it affect them.

Like a bug that seems minor to a software manager may be a huge pain in the ass to a clerk that uses the software all day.
