bad bosses

a new movie. And pretty darn relevant. Ever since I saw the preview i start going through my list of so many many MANY bosses. And I should probably stop right there because I have never liked the term BOSS. It sounds so antiquated so like we are back in slavery times and I have to shuck and jive to find out what da boss wants me to do next. BUT it is not that serious it's just a term meaning your ass aint in charge someone else is and whatever the orders are, you gotta do it.

SO any who... bad bosses. It's actually probably easier for me to locate the 'good' bosses, like the one who would demand I take off cause I needed some rest and not dock me for time. Or the one who would actually praise the work I'd done and let everyone know that I had done a good job. But, that is so rare. I usually like to instill a healthy dose of fear in my bosses. And that can be tricky because if they are too afraid then I become a threat. I remember one time I yelled at a boss and he kinda liked it, probably too much, in fact he said OH I LIKE THE WAY YOU TALK TO ME!! But for all the jobs I have had, dominatrix is not one of them LOL although... never say never. I might need to check craig's list for that job.

I can't come up with a top list. But here are some:

There were 2 marines... um I didn't join the military for a reason. I'm not a sir yes sir kinda chick. But one who wore WAY to much cologne ... well he was short with short little arms so I know he had a napoleon complex. He liked to only hear good reports from the staff but he did NOTHING to encourage good things to happen. The other was always on a power trip, like I bet I can make you do what I say!! I mostly ignored him and that only mad him madder.

Then there was the woman who I would go to her with questions and she would reply to any questioning email to everyone on the team and have her main flunky to come a throw under me the bus. I had to exit stage left REAL fast out of that department.

LORD so many...and unfortunately most of them are women : /

The was the one who wrote me up for making a 'non-verbal' communication which was considered insubordination : I

The one who told me... i didn't need to ask question i just needed to DO THE WORK!

The one with bad teeth AND bad wigs... she was just the freaking worst!! (i guess it would be mean to say she was beauty challenged... but alas it's true). She did everything wrong LOL

Ok I need to insert something positive. uuuhhhhh..... i got nothing!!

SO i really need to go see that movie. I wonder if it will turn into a cult classic like 'Office Space'. I know I quote far too much from that movie because you have to wonder if 15 pieces of flair is really enough?!?
