What is the name of your state? ga
I'm not sure where exactly these questions fit, sorry if I'm posting to the wrong place:
My co-workers keeps asking me to drive at lunchtime to feed his cat when he is out of town. It is about 20 minutes away, one way. I've made up excuses before as to why I can't do it, but he still asks me. He is in a higher position in the company than me, he is a "professional", I am the receptionist. I know I have the ability to just say no, but I'm uncomfortable with doing it. Are there any liabilities my company could face as a result of his asking me to drive my car for this errand? What if I were in a car accident while do it? I just want to know if there might be some legal reason why I can tell him I can't do it, i.e., "it puts the company at a risk if I were in an accident", something like that.
Also, this same co-worker has a problem with body odor that is very offensive to me and my other female co-worker. He comes in the morning and the office immediately starts to smell, in fact whether he is here or not we don't go into his office because it stinks. Can't or shouldn't his boss be told to take a shower, isn't there some law that says people in an office can't stink?
Thanks for your answers to my weird questions.
