Chancellor Olaf Scholz comes to visit the authorities in Hanover.

But first, an internal email from the boss caused irritation.

Hanover - Imagine: The Federal Chancellor comes to visit.

Then most people would want to show their best side.

But what if Olaf Scholz stops by an office and you want to get the employees to show their bright side?

It was precisely this attempt that caused irritation in Hanover.

In fact, Olaf Scholz is visiting Hanover this week and is also paying a visit to the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) during his trip.

But even before this guest performance was even confirmed by the Chancellery, preparations were already being made in said authority.

As a result, an info mail was also sent to the employees.

According to a report in the Hannoversche Allgemeine,

this email from the President of the BGR caused

a great deal of astonishment.

Scholz's visit caused a stir in advance - because of the boss' mail

It first becomes clear that the boss, Ralph Watzel, is proud of the chancellor's visit.

After all, this shows "the interest in the BGR from the highest political level".

"We can (...) see the visit as a success".

That is why they want to take the opportunity to present the authority “in the best possible way”.

So far so good.

But the "we" is quickly over - at least on the day of the Chancellor's visit, because: Watzel openly asks his employees not to "enter the office on February 16, 2023".

According to the report, this sentence is even underlined in the letter.

This is justified with great security effort.

According to

t-online

, you are asked to tie your shoes and iron your shirt if you have to come.

A spokesman for the civil servants' association criticized the mail for the

and said: "I assume that the employees of a federal agency dress properly every day."
