what sort of boss have you got?
« on: October 24, 2013, 07:11:35 pm »
G,day viewers to cut a long story short. We had a young red belly black snake at work it had been in the fork lift for 13 days since it was last seen. Anyway a truck driver and I caught it and boxed it to let it go. When I told the boss he started  tapping the box and said it was a baby and won't hurt you. WTF  :-\  I thought about throwing it in his office and locking the door.  ;D  Jimson

Lol...

My boss has just been shuffled sideways into a different role where (in the words of his boss) "his micromanaging can be useful"...
New boss seems OK. Didn't even get upset when I reversed a work vehicle into his car.
While he was watching...

Mines pretty good.
Lets me get away with just about anything I want to.
Like putting off urgent jobs because the boys want to go to the topless bar or go riding mid week to avoid the crowds.
Has one drawback I'm expect to be civil to her mother.
My solution when the outlaw is visiting, is go an do those urgent jobs I avoided. I try an pick the nosiest dirtiest job I can preferable in the yard.
I know, not the boss you were talking about but her indoors is the only one I have to answer to.

My boss and I have an interesting relationship. We're both in our late 50's and will retire in the next 4-5 years. We both have put up with a lifetime of bullshit from up above. Whilst we disagree about some things we have common life experiences and an unspoken agreement to not annoy each other. Seems to work most days! J

My boss is a neat guy.
He said a while back that he had all the money he could ever use and now he sits in one of his sheds and knocks up hot rods.
He has hired a mechanic and welder full time just to help him.
He's living the dream.

The rest of us never see him. ;)

 My son, (another misguided person that thought motor mechanics is a good job) has had lots of jobs and he said the boss has always been a pain in the"A".

    That boss is the customer.
