Over the years, I have been gifted with exceptional bosses; the tyrant,the sleaze ball, the wuss and the screamer. I've also endured alot of on the job abuse...

People please tell me I am not alone!

I will pass all your comments to my previous bosses, present boss, future bosses, all bosses who are friends of mine and hopefully they will change their ways or make all of you sacked from the company. This is my small contribution to QL and general workforce here.:)

msmay,

I need my boss approval to do almost anything even sending resume to a hiring manager...so that's power issues for one.

two, he has this 80s thinking. I cannot address my boss by the name. It must be with a 'Mr.' or just 'Sir'!

Three, he squeezes the employees dry. He insists my assistant and two other employees in my office to stay late simply just for staying late even if they have finished their work! I simply go on the dot if I have finished work for the day.

I can go on..so don't feel bad.

The employees excuses of the traffic conditions for being late to work.

This employees and their 1000 families excuses for not showing to work on time or calling sick every-time....

The employees excuses: Is not my department responsibilities or job description.

The employees attitude of not working proficiently because they are not getting paid enough.

The employees comparisons with other employees salaries.

The employees lack of good ethics in the job and following company policies.

The employees continuos breaks after the authorized breaks.

The employees continuos Gossip, because they don't know their job.

The employees lack of production, all Jobs are late and past the dates dead-line.

The employees always cheesing the Boss for promotion and pay raises.

The employees bad performance evaluation at the end of the fiscal year, I wonder Why? said the BOSS!

The boss decision: You are fired! You bunch of slackers and irresponsibles characters. You are working with an agreement signed and sealed.

EMPLOYEES FROM A BOSS AND A BOSS TO EMPLOYEES PERSPECTIVE?

My boss had nothing to do, so he watched me work all day.

My boss is busy, so i play computer games and internet all day.

Computers have lots of memory but no imagination.

The local sheriff was looking for a deputy, so Gomer went in to try out for the job.

"Okay," the sheriff drawled, "Gomer, what is 1 and 1?"

"11" he replied.

The sheriff thought to himself, "That's not what I meant, but he's right."

"What two days of the week start with the letter 'T'?"

"Today and tomorrow."

The sheriff was again surprised that Gomer supplied a correct answer that he had never thought of himself.

"Now Gomer, listen carefully: Who killed Abraham Lincoln?"

Gomer looked a little surprised himself, then thought really hard for a minute and finally admitted, "I don't know."

"Well, why don't you go home and work on that one for a while?"

So, Gomer wandered over to the barbershop where his pals were waiting to hear the results of the interview. Gomer was exultant. "It went great! First day on the job and I'm already working on a murder case!"

In a job interview for policemen the applicants are shown a profile picture of a man, and the interviewer says, "The job that you're applying for requires powers of observation. Make one observation about this man."

The first applicant enters and says, "This man has just one ear."

"Get out!!" screams the interviewer.

The second applicant enters and says, "This man has one ear."

"Get out!!" screams the interviewer again.

Then the third applicant gets up to go in for his interview. The first two guys are out there and they tell him, "The guy that's giving the interview doesn't like to hear that the man in the picture has one ear."

"Thanks for the tip" says the third applicant.

So the third applicant enters, stares at the picture for a while and finally he says, "This man wears contact lenses."

The interviewer is impressed and says, "Excellent observation. Tell me, how could you tell?"

So the guy says, "Well, this man has just one ear, how could he wear glasses?"

A young man was hired by a supermarket and reported for his first day of work. The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, then gave him a broom and said,

"Son, your first job will be to sweep out the store."

"But I'm a college graduate," the young man replied indignantly.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize that," said the manager. "Here, give me the broom -- I'll show you how."

A doctor, a lawyer and a manager were discussing the relative merits of having a wife or a mistress.

The lawyer says: "For sure a mistress is better. If you have a wife and want a divorce, it causes all sorts of legal problems."

The doctor says: "It's better to have a wife because the sense of security lowers your stress and is good for your health."

The manager says: "You're both wrong. It's best to have both so that when the wife thinks you're with the mistress and the mistress thinks you're with your wife -- you can go to the office and do some work.

The boss at the pub went up to the bartender and asked, "Have you been fooling around with the waitress?!"

"Oh no, sir, I sure haven't," replied the bartender.

The boss replied, "Good, then you fire her!"

In a small town in the US, there is a rather sizable factory that hires only married men. Concerned about this, a local woman called on the manager and asked him, "Why is it you limit your employees to married men? Is it because you think women are weak, dumb, cantankerous ... or what?"

"Not at all, Ma'am," the manager replied. "It is because our employees are used to obeying orders, are accustomed to being shoved around, know how to keep their mouths shut and don't pout when I yell at them."

So far I have been very lucky. Always got a nice boss. Very understanding and construtive side. Only one boss is very aggresive and temperament. Used to yell to everyone if he need. So stressed work with this kind of person. But now, my boss so far is nice. Thanks God!!!

I've known one like that, not mine though. Are you just venting, or will actually provide reasons behinds your comments?
