Tiktoker Shocked By Company's Request To Share Bed On Trip

Woman shocked after being asked to share bed on company trip

A TikToker recently shared her surprise after being asked to share a bed on a company trip to Paris. The woman, known as @co.letter on TikTok, revealed that the HR department had sent out an email to all employees on the trip, offering the option to share a room with one bed.

In the email, HR reportedly stated, 'You will notice in the survey that you have the option to share a room with a colleague, be advised that at present booking status, there is only one bed in the room.' This revelation left the TikToker in disbelief, as she had to read the email multiple times to process the information.

Expressing her astonishment, she remarked, 'That was an option... Suggested, encouraged - HR was like typing that up, sending it, drinking their glass of wine.' She speculated that the HR department might have been either 'bored or they wanna save money.'

Following the TikToker's video, another user, Barrett Adair, shared a similar experience from a previous job. The video garnered significant attention in the comments section, with many expressing concerns about the legality and professionalism of such a request.

One commenter questioned the legality of the situation, while another suggested billing for the hours spent sharing a room with a coworker or boss. Several users emphasized the importance of maintaining boundaries, with one stating, 'Me and my wife have our own rooms AIN'T NO WAY I'm sharing a room with a coworker.'

The incident highlighted the varying perspectives on workplace accommodations during business trips, with some users adamantly opposed to the idea of sharing rooms with colleagues. The video resonated with many individuals who value privacy and personal space, especially when traveling for work.

Ultimately, the TikToker's experience shed light on the importance of clear communication and respectful boundaries in professional settings, prompting discussions about appropriate accommodations and employee well-being during company trips.
