Taking the piss

By Mug - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom

Today, my boss made me work a longer shift than usual. Not because he needed me in, but just so I'd finish at the same time as his brat of a son, and give him a lift home. FML

OP, your boss can make you work overtime but he cannot make you give a ride to his son. Don't let him bully you into it. Say no next time.

Could have called a friend to meet u for lunch, secretly passed them your keys and told the kid u had to lend your car to a friend for important errand....then had him pick u up elsewhere. Maybe too much trouble but worth a shot

you shouldn't have said yes (assuming he asked). Also if he didn't, and this isn't the first time this has happened, you should point out that that is actually illegal here in the UK. Not that specifically... but here in the UK it is illegal to make someone work a longer shift than they are scheduled for without their permission.

Do what I did when I had a unwanted rider. I started talking about me & my boyfriend. All our problems, our sex life. He quickly started catching rides with other ppl

64-Haha. I hope you don't need a kidney, either.

I read "longer", "needed me in" and "so I'd finish". I think I know what OP's job is.

Hears a thought dont give him a ride its not part of your job and there are alot of jobs out there start looking your obviously unhappy do somthing about it that actualy counts insted of this

And that's when you say "So I'm getting paid time and a half to drop your kid off and come back to clock out right?"
