Talk about fear based...I've heard my boss and plant manager tell people that they're lucky they still have a job. It's no wonder that he's running the place into the ground. His only way to make the financial numbers look better is to cut people.

We must work for the same boss.

But when he says "We" he means "You, and if you do it according to your good judgement, training, and experience, I will obstruct you in various bizzare ways. But if you do it my way, I will obstruct you in various bizarre ways. Then in a month we will do it all over again on another project that we will needlessly repeat without finishing again next year".

PS His Way= A Compendium of Worst Practices, Bad Standards and Outdated Knowledge

I just caught the whole better be good at yoga thing... Yeah, kinda slow today. I'm fired.

I really, really hate my boss...she's a bitch!!!
she makes me come into work at 11am on a freaking monday! I mean, c'mon...can't a gal sleep in??

chester, I have a pretty mean boss as well - he makes me take days off all the time to go climbing...

I have to say that my new boss is really cool. He's a very conservative Christian, but he is also pretty laid back. We had an 'assimilation' meeting recently where all of his employees got to ask annoymous questions, no holds barred (he's new in this job) and I asked "is it true that you paid your way through college by stripping?" He laughed, blushed and said no. Heh.

Also, he's in another state so he doesn't micro-manage at all.

wes, i'll ask my boss if i can go climbing with you next wednesday...

i asked her, and she said it's ok...maybe she's not so bad...

your boss is such a voluptous bitch. maybe you should ask my boss if both of us could come with you two on wend.

hmmmm....she said since you are so damn cute that maybe, just maybe....but only if you bring Amy...
