Big day today in the office, but drinks planned later in the day so it should be good day! Me being a low level engineer at a branch office gets early into the city before heading out to the client. Stops by the office, first person in, except this one guy loitering in the lobby. No ID card, sorry, can't let you in. Looks like a security audit, better thread carefully. Guy say he's here to see a manager. Always a linked in scam., we are a hi security business and have to be onto it. Trying to call manager to confirm, no answer, tells "Bob" I cant verify, and I may have to check with security. Bob decides to leave. Later check with manager, yup, he knows Bob, and was indeed expecting him. Later in the evening at company event over drinks, gets reintroduced to Bob, who I effectively booted out, turns out being the EMEA/AFRICA/Asia Pacific global manager from headoffice...
TLDR; booted a guy out trying to sneak into our branch office, turned out to be global manager for company...
