I was initially confused by your use of the acronym EOD ...
Thesaulsurvivor
I read EOD monday, and thought dope they make a fake bomb and disarm it or play bomb related games to build teamwork........End of Day smh

Straight-out ask him why he wants that. If you have a somewhat decent relationship with your boss he should answer.
karstenlang
.. and if you don't, it was never ment to be.

Sorry bud, You're probably getting fired. Happened to me last year. Me and my colleague were asked to do that. A month later we were gone.
Amzadi
We were replaced buy two people who worked for the directors in other company's under a slightly different job description.
babypigsarehamlets
That is categorically NOT a good thing. I’ve had this happen and it only fucking escalates afterwards
AdultPersistentAngst
Big uh oh
maumau93
I hope you claim weekend pay for doing it
bernaberts5
Used to be in the same field for 15 years. I found it was to save my position from the “re-org” cops trying to cut waste.
ChucklehutCyinc
As a manager that has had this requirement of me asked many times I agree. If I dont know you I cant defend what your value is effectively
klean9
Fired

Fuck that and them

You 're literally writing your own job posting.
Dudefromnotsoupnorth
Yeah don't answer. Why respect his deadline if he just wants to fire you? On the weekend no less.
nantukoprime
The Cisco tag explains it all. You part of one of their M&A transitions, or a group they are replacing with one of their M&A transitions?
hawkca
I hope you find something you love to do & you’re appreciated there too!
fredbloxx
if he wants to get to know you better at work he should ASK at work.

You're getting fired and replaced by a H1B
NaughtButOne
That doesn't sound very Inclusion & Diversity of you, bro.
PoppaBigBear
It's something that's "happening" in IT fields, people getting fired, ridiculous job postings, excuses to hire outside of the country
NeatoVeto
Detailed? Sounds like you need to write a Dune level novel and smoke that fool’s brain.
mity0k23
Just say you’re in charge of hiding the bodies. When asked “what bodies?”, say you’re really good at your job.
obsoleteattribute
On the plus side, you now have the opportunity to get the hell out of California.
HeaterTwang
Rural NorCal is the shit...I'll admit my bias having grown up here but being on Yosemite's doorstep is awesome and it's not crazy expensive.
aoimori
Agreed; it's my second-favorite place I've lived, after Pikes Peak. I'm a sucker for scenery.
Urbanglitch
Partner has a solid job, so probably not unfortunately
obsoleteattribute
If you're making it work, good on you. I've visited San Fran. Nice place to visit, but you couldn't pay me to live there.
aoimori
When I lived in Sacramento, it was cheaper to buy airline tickets from Sac to SF and back daily than it was to live in SF for your job.
Guidocat
You mean you couldnt earn enough to live there. Few can.
Urbanglitch
If you find your groove, it’s a great place to live.
Jaydice
@Urbanglitch any IT experience? Or just AV?
SoftFur
Of course they couldn’t pay you to live there, op isn’t sure if they’re still getting paid to live there.

If you’re my boss it is your responsibility to know what my duties/job/tasks are. yOuR’e mY boSs! ThAt’S yOuR joB.
fruplesnap
I'd advise to write up detailed description, but wait until Monday to submit. That way you can speak with new boss in person for reasoning.
cdel58
Well it does say EOB day for Monday so yeah by end of business day.

" I want a written and signed document saying that I'm not being terminated first"
incorrecthorsestapler
I’d probably flip the script and ask for a copy of my job description from him/HR.
incorrecthorsestapler
Strike that, I just looked at your last post. Figure out how how your job overlaps some core company function, or project of his.
incorrecthorsestapler
Preferably several areas if possible, and in ways that impact company revenue generation or retention.
TheDudeSkywalker
Its probably both. He wants to know what you do, and if its worth keeping you
Bobfromboblandofbob
Yep, if it were me I would work on my resume instead of making a list. If they don't know what I do than I am going to asume the company is1
Bobfromboblandofbob
going under and they are trying to stop the bleeding before they tank. 2
DietCokeIsTheBest
Doing the list is the starting point for your CV. It’s not always bad too. I had to provide a list so some tasks could be reallocated becaus
DietCokeIsTheBest
I was being overworked
cdel58
I agree with Bob...but also do the list.
saintofchaoticgood
So... is he expecting you to do this off the clock. Fuck that dude. You didn’t get that email til Monday.
SpoilGOTandDie
This seems a bit weird to me as well.
battlepants
EOD Monday is the end of the work day on Monday. Probably expecting a quick write up being done during the work day.
DietCokeIsTheBest
EOD Monday gives plenty of time in the day?

Make sure to cover everything

No. Leave out the odd jobs and the support for his private smartphone.

I’m already started on it
EKOasaripple
Count out hours, mine added up to 65+ hours per week. I'm paid for 45.
Ionlypostbatmanandbatmanrelatedthings
Make sure you're getting paid for it
arbucklecunningham
you've been given a blank check to define your job, rather it's what you actually do or what you want to be doing.
Stephen9000
It's not a blank check. It's a blank expense voucher to cover the checks he or she has been getting...
Stephen9000
...with an unspoken implication that it might not be approved.

As a recently promoted Project Manager (from engineer). Can I give it back? Try getting all those engineers working together constructively!
