I can't believe this guy. Asking someone to do something useless just to see if they'll do it is TERRIBLE leadership.

Meeting a superior at 7 AM in your free time as a test to 1. see if you'll do something that is nakedly irrational and wasteful and 2. because a superior told you to is a very negative signal for companies that want to actually get shit done.

So yeah, I want to work for a company of people that are "entitled". Entitled to ask questions about what they are doing and why/if it is necessary. Entitled to say no to unexplained requests from superiors.
