    But its all for the greater good ...

    Make it happen. When they ask you a question, say "Yes, he said you were going to ask about that. Then he left quickly. Have you seen him?"

    During an audit answer only the questions asked, truthfully, with the minimal possible actual information. I.e. tell the truth, but not the whole truth. If you need to research the answer, tell them you'll get back to them.

    started a topic Anyone had to see auditors with no warning?

    Anyone had to see auditors with no warning?

    That is what just happened to me.

    Boss away on a course so I had to fill in.

    Boss’s boss swooping around me, hence I had no idea as to what I could, should, and should not say due to no briefing before the meeting.

    What a fluck-up!

Working...
