An Undercover CEO goes incognito during a regular workday to observe how employees handle day-to-day interactions. Shockingly, several employees mistreat her — being dismissive, rude, and unprofessional, assuming she is just another colleague and that their behavior won’t be noticed.

What they don’t realize is that the person they’re disrespecting is the CEO herself, quietly watching every action and taking note of their conduct.

As the truth comes to light, the powerful lesson about respect, professionalism, and the consequences of mistreating others unfolds, leaving the employees accountable for their behavior.

👀 Watch until the end for a dramatic and eye-opening reveal.

00:14client wanted extra coverage in the hallway and bedroom oh that wasn't on
00:18the original work order though right no but they asked this morning when we

00:43additional sensors that weren't in the original paperwork we're just finishing
00:47time is money baby every extra hour cost me my bonus finish the base installation
00:53and move on but the client specifically asked for clients don't know what they
00:58need that's why we are the professionals sell the approved package and move on to
01:03the next part of the house and who is this oh this is Joe the new technician
01:08from corporate he's training with me this week great another body to slow things
01:13down word of advice new guy don't let emma's overachieving rebuff on you
01:18efficiency matters more to perfection in this business Kyle what should I tell the
01:22client about the sensors they requested it schedule a second appointment charging
01:27the standard 500 service fee the sensors are included in the premium package they
01:32already paid for them the client does not know that is over charging company
01:37policy does the new guy have opinions already I just trying to understand the
01:42procedures well here's a procedure for you sir do a management says without
01:45questioning me is that clear enough goodness and this is filthy what you
01:53plan on doing with this how you expect a new quality clean work with filthy
01:58lackluster equipment document slow progress for your performance reviews as
02:05well okay do you want to document the clients request as well for accuracy what you
02:11worry about your own performance new guy not my next part of the house within the 45
02:16minutes don't be slow
02:22okay I am so sorry you had to see that is he always like that I've seen trust me
02:31better days wow how long have you dealt with him look it's been two years since he got
02:44promoted to regional manager but that he he was tolerable before then now he only
02:48cares about the bonuses and performance metrics he's been adding unauthorized
02:53charges for months fees for services that already included fake upgrades that don't
02:58exist I've been keeping records but I don't know what to do with them can I see
03:02them
03:11Wow these are thorough can you send those to me yeah if Kyle found out I showed he
03:17a lot I promise hello why aren't you at the next part of house I can see the
03:27computer installed just went online you still in the living room we finished
03:30early I added the sensors on the TV I had no charge since they were included in
03:34the package who authorized that I use my judgment that's exactly why you are still a technician and not management
03:42leave the computer alone and move on to the next part of the house we have to finish in three
03:49hours
03:53we need to move on hey you're doing the right thing okay for the clients and for the company doesn't
03:59matter if Kyle takes my performance review again you know what let's just
04:04just just move on before he finds something else to yell at me about
04:19Kyle marked this as an emergency repair premium rate
04:29it's a minor calibration 15 minutes max yeah why would he mark it as an emergency because emergency
04:38calls justify premium charges he does it all the time with routine maintenance
04:46hello okay now you're finishing the job way too fast I see I just see the smart oven come on
04:52we need a full three hours to charge a premium
04:55because it really wasn't an emergency it was just a calibration stretch it out take your time justify the charge
05:04that's dishonest we've been charging them from work we're not doing
05:08it's business Emma either learn how it works or stay a technician forever
05:18hi what's the criteria for marketing a call as an emergency
05:21who is this oh it's Joe the new guy just trying to understand the emergency criteria
05:26the criteria is that I say it's an emergency that's it
05:30okay does corporate have different standards
05:32man you are a nice new guy questioning management is not how you keep this job
05:39understood
05:39take another hour on that oven minimum or you're both getting written up
05:44you know what I'm right around the corner let me just come in and supervise the work
05:48make sure y'all moving at the right pace
05:55welcome to working under Kyle
05:58does he always start write-ups only when you do something ethical
06:05oh don't mind me I'm just observing a new guy's training so what you want to
06:10verify each zone individually before it is that takes way too long just run a
06:14little master diagnostic and move it on the manual specifies individual zone
06:19testing to isolate potential issues real fieldwork is different from what's in
06:23the manual you would know that if you have management experience well this
06:28seems to match the manual specifications exactly so field conditions vary you
06:32can't just follow a manual blindly the manual accounts for field variations
06:36section 7 page 12 mmm been doing some reading have we
06:41no just trying to learn the proper procedures the mounting bracket is off
06:45center it's leveled and center to specification
06:48I consider the mounting bracket is off don't argue with me

06:55Emma I'm writing you up for taking too long and you new guy with the shoes for
07:00insubordination can I see the write-up before you file it no management
07:05decisions aren't set up for discussion well actually employees have the right to
07:09review disciplinary actions before filing it's in the employee handbook section
