Biscuits with the boss

We have a new principal, and she has had everybody sign up for a session of "biscuits with the boss" which she says is from Ted Lasso. My teammates had slots yesterday. Mine will be today at 9 when I am back from the bus. I know she just wants to get to know us, but, it makes me feel a little cringey. Wish me luck. It is just 15 minutes.

I wouldn't be too worried. I think it's good that she's making an effort like this.

I am sure it is. I just do not like to talk too much about myself.

Will you truly eat biscuits or is they just a term? I’d be a little nervous too. Best of luck!

Bless her heart; she’s trying. I wouldn’t be thrilled about it either, but it certainly is an idealistic way to approach everything.

In our school the administration makes a huge effort to be visible and helpful. She wants to know what we do and why.

I hope your 'Biscuit with the Boss" was smooth and went well. It should be done by now.

I had the day wrong. Not a Thursday meeting, but a Friday meeting, so it is in a few hours. I will post about it.

I got the day wrong. We have lots of new staff this year. It is good to all get acquainted.

At least she's trying to get to know all of you and hopefully her intent is to fit in.

I hope your 'Biscuit with the Boss" went well and she put you at ease. If this is how she's starting out, she'll probably be a good leader.

Is the boss English? Tea and Oreos?

No, she is just borrowing the phrase. My one team mate got interrupted by someone from another building wanting to visit with the boss.
