A tweet from user @MJohnsonFTW has gone viral recently due to some Netflix shenanigans. Like most streaming platforms, Netflix is set up to allow multiple simultaneous users from one account; 2 at once for a standard plan, 4 at once for premium. It also allows for up to 5 profiles to keep different users’ preferences and tastes distinct from each other. This is all really useful if you, say, share your account with your family or a roommate. But what happens when you share it with your boss?
I gave my boss my Netflix password so he could watch Tiger King and this man has lost his mind. His kids added their own profiles and he changed my profile to ours. Nah, fam pic.twitter.com/5wxbpf0K3H

Apparently Marcus’ boss Kevin didn’t have an account but really needed to get it on this Tiger King craze, so Marcus kindly shared his password. What he didn’t expect was that Kevin would add profiles for his kids, and have the AUDACITY to change Marcus’ profile to “Kevin/Marcus.”
He really buggin

The tweet started to spread partially out of amusement and partially out of outrage as any instance of boss/employee exploitation is not a good look. But as Marcus stated multiple times, this was not actually a big deal.
Lmfao just so we’re clear, I did immediately correct it pic.twitter.com/JZllQ5jkb6

It seems a strong possibility that Kevin isn’t the most tech-savvy guy, demonstrated here by his confusion on what going viral means.
Oh yeah, and when he picked me up to take me to lunch today, I tried to tell him we were going viral and he started whispering and said, “wait, right now?” He thought it meant we were on live

Kevin and Marcus seem to enjoy a close, playful relationship.
My boss told me that my check was under his keyboard in his office…
This MFer left me a whole scavenger hunt with 11 different clues before I finally got to my check.
I might actually work for Michael Scott

And as Marcus insists, this is not a toxic workplace. Just a couple of guys with a genuine kinship who enjoy messing with each other.
Last thing, I’ve worked there for 7 years & these people literally treat me like family. They give me money whenever I need it, invite me over for holidays, always look out for me, etc. lmf*o I love them. My boss just changed my profile to f*ck w me bc we always prank each other

It’s refreshing to see that kind of wholesome story come around. Bosses like that are definitely worth holding onto.
Have you ever had a boss you particularly liked?
