Just had an email from my boss's boss asking me to spend some time with the work experience girl (who happens to be his neice) next week.
Normally I wouldn't bat an eyelid, even though I don't like the nepotism aspect, as it's a fairly standard request but this time we're expected to spend some serious time with the girl. The suggestion is that her week is basically spent having one on one time with half a dozen senior managers so we're all expected to dedicate the best part of a day with her. Normally, I'd pass her off on someone junior, but that clearly isn't the intention here.
I am really uncomfortable with this and the only way that I can justify it to myself is that she is a woman (and an ethic minority to boot) so no harm in giving her a leg up.
So I spose, the question is WWYD? And if you wouldn't do it how would you get out of it (because I really don't want to piss my boss and his boss off)?!
