New employee monitors boss's schedule, asking for confidential information and requesting to join meetings with higher-ups, boss left baffled: ‘It's not something I’m willing to discuss’

Does it ever baffle you that your work calendar can be viewed by everyone in the office?

It might not be the most technologically advanced feature out there, but we always found it quite bizarre that our schedules are open for everyone to see. We will never get used to talking with our boss and asking for a meeting, only for them to reply: "Just take a look at my calendar and set a meeting whenever I'm free." What do you mean, look at your calendar, boss? Isn't it… Well… incredibly private?

If you think we are overreacting, then maybe you would not find the actions of the employee in the story below as over-the-top. After all, they're just looking at their boss's calendar, which is technically public information. The problem is, they won't stop looking, inquiring about it, and even asking to join meetings they have no business joining. All of which is making the boss extremely uncomfortable.

Is it too much, or is it normal employee behavior? Keep scrolling to read the full story and decide for yourselves.
