What if your boss went up to you and said “Drop and give me 20?”

1. I work from home, so I’d probably just post a GIF on slack.

2. “no”

3. i’d do it just because the average person can’t pull off 20 pushups and that’s probably why they asked. Make em feel dumb for asking

4. Looks like I’m telling myself to do 20 push ups. Damn I just hit chest yesterday though!

5. I must follow a direct order, even if it goes against contract. I can only refuse if my safety is compromised. 20 pushups is nothing plus I like to be physically sound.

6. What?

7. “You first”

   I’m one of like 4-5 guys at work that could do 20 pushups without needing to go to the doctor afterward.

8. “$20? I don’t carry small bills. You got change for a $100?”

9. I’d probably sit on the ground, hand her 20 bucks.

10. I mean, as long as he’s not being a dick I’d assume it’s a joke… and do it anyway.

11. eh, good exercice.

    or i would probably challenge them to a race. like “last one to finish a set of 20 will treat the other to dinner”.

12. As someone that works as a personal trainer at a gym, I’d gladly do it. I’m open to sneaking in some push-ups at work.

13. Walk back to my office and check LinkedIn for jobs.

14. I have no boss so I’d be very confused

15. I’d be telling the boss eat Sh*t.

16. I have the relationship with my boss where I could tell him to fuck off. I’d do it if he was going to as well, but there are better uses of my time

17. Lol you don’t pay me for that shit 🙄

18. You first fatso.

19. Give them 20 of something they won’t like

20. In my line of work, the correct response would be Sir, Yes Sir 🫡

21. As a joke? Yes. As a serious punishment? No, since i’m not in the military.

22. Ask for it in writing so i can take it to HR. Got you fucker

23. “Dude we work in IT. All I can give you are 5”

24. laugh

25. I’m union. I’d tell him to go fuck himself. I’d love to tell him to go fuck himself anyways I’m just not that petty.

26. Thats not my job and if you ask again I will report it

27. I’d laugh and walk away.

28. What boss? I’m gainfully unemployed.

29. I’d laugh at him. Yeah he’s my boss, but pushups aren’t in my job description. He can’t actually make me do anything like that. Everything in life is a choice, you don’t actually HAVE to do anything. You just have to be willing to accept whatever reactions come from those actions.

30. I’ll do 2 push-ups every hour until my shift is over.

31. I’d do 50, then ask for a raise for being so goddamn buff.

32. I would immediately drop and do 20 pushups then stand at the position of attention amd await further instructions or clarification because I’m in the Army.

33. I’d laugh at him and walk away.

34. I’d do it. My boss happens to be a very intelligent guy who I respect a lot, I’d be genuinely curious where he’s going with this since we’re both electrical engineers.

35. Drop him with a left hook and kick him 20 times.
