Not much different than coming to attention when an officer enters the barracks, and the first grunt to see him (her?) orders "Attention!"

It's called "respect."

Same for the judge in his (her?) Court.

Honor the principle.

What's the problem?

Politicians are supposed to be serving the public. Nowadays they seem to think they are our betters.

“Staff members in the office were “ORDERED” to stand up and greet Bowser when she entered the room for a meeting”

the ordered part kinda bugged me, and was an email really necessary?

It isn't any difference than calling attention, but this is not the military. Judges deserve respect in their courtroom when they are on the bench, but this is not a courtroom.

This is just city hall, the representatives of the voters. This is arrogant and privilege taken too far. One doesn't snap to attention when a representative or senator enters a room. Why so with just a mayor?
