In Taiwan, hand-shaken beverages have become an important part of office culture, with many people often using them to relax. However, an employee complained on "Anonymous 2 Community" that their boss prohibited ordering hand-shaken drinks, opposing it with reasons like "it's bad for your health" and "I'm doing this for your own good," which left employees feeling troubled. This incident sparked heated discussions online, with many sharing similar experiences or viewpoints, pointing out that excessive regulation could impact employees' mental health and work atmosphere. This reflects the challenge of workplace management in balancing concerns for employee health and work discipline.

In Taiwan, hand-shaken beverages have gradually blended into office culture, with many people enjoying ordering drinks together with colleagues during work breaks to have a moment of relaxation. However, recently an employee posted on a platform complaining that their company’s boss does not allow employees to order hand-shaken drinks, and whenever caught, the boss criticizes them, causing distress to the employees who even hesitate to order drinks anymore. The employee stated that the boss often justifies the prohibition with reasons like "it's bad for your health" and "I'm looking out for you," making employees feel dissatisfied and believing that the boss's control is excessive.

This post has sparked heated discussions among netizens, with many sharing their own experiences in companies facing similar situations. One netizen remarked, "My boss keeps saying the harms of cola whenever they see someone drinking it." Another mentioned, "I've encountered such bizarre bosses before who even regulate food." Some netizens pointed out that the problem might be that employees forgot to order a drink for the boss: "It's because you all forgot to get the boss a drink—that's why he says it’s bad for your health. He actually feels that you didn’t think of him, and that made him unhappy." Others commented, "It's simply that you didn’t help him order; everyone else is having it, and he's just irritated. Everyone should stop drinking."

However, some netizens shared more positive experiences: "No, the boss would treat us, but he himself doesn't drink.” These comments illustrate that different companies have varying regulations and management styles regarding employees ordering hand-shaken drinks, but excessive management can indeed affect employees' mental health and workplace atmosphere.

This incident reflects a subtle issue in modern workplace management: how to strike a balance between caring for employee health and maintaining work discipline. Regardless, excessive control and interference may lead to employee dissatisfaction and resentment, subsequently impacting work efficiency and team cohesion.
