I can't figure out how to say "hot tub" in Chinese. What is the best way to talk about a hot tub in Chinese?

Describing that you are very obedient
I'd like to find a Chinese phrase to describe following orders readily, or being very 听话. In English we have a casual phrase to describe this: 'if she says jump, I say "how high?"'
Here is some context: A colleague asks me to do a work task late in the evening, and I can say that I don't want to work late in the evening. But when my colleague tells me that the request comes from the CEO I will instantly change my opinion: now I will work late in the evening.
