My boss can blow me. He wonders why people don't make suggestions. I make a suggestion and he hammers me with the comment in my signature, calls me whiney, and basically threatens my job. 1 year. 1 year. 1 year. He will be gone in 1 year. Must........keep...........working.......1 year 1 year.

Did you write back and tell him that you find his second l in "accompllishments" to be beneath a second grader's spelling skills? Because you should.

Your boss is a dumb ass, and obviously, the only way he can make himself appear important is to tear other people down! :evil:

Tell him that Dipsi said to kiss her ass and yours, and that he may call you Sir from this moment forward!

Uh, you might want to wait till next year to do the above. :roll:

Does he not know that messing with the IT people is a very bad idea? Maybe just print out a report from your proxy server listing all the websites he has *visited*...

Hold on Ray...1 more year. I know when I worked for a jacka@@, he adored me. I could never understand it. I told him no all the time, that he couldn't do things that he wanted to do and went over his head to get someone reprimanded. And he adored me. Your boss probably adores you too, he's just a pain in the ass. (for somereason I like spelling jackass jacka@@).

My previous boss was a complete pain in the ass. I had the pleasure of working with him for five wonderful years. I even had the distinct pleasure of several overnight buisness trip with said boss. Turns put that several months after I left he changes jobs and one of my good friends took his position.

So moral of this story is .... ummm..... well....

Stick it out, you can do it.

It's a good thing you aren't Italian (are you?). If you were this would be a clear case of vendetta. There's a website full of dirty tricks that aren't all that serious. Maybe you should sign him up for like a thousand magazine subscriptions, and make him deal with the collections people. :twisted:

Wes is right...
Two rules I live by:
1. Don't mess with people who are preparing your food (waitresses, etc.).
2. Don't mess with IT.

Are you saying they can track everywhere I go on the Internet?
