what do you do when your boss leaves?

[cfortune]

What's even worse is I had seen it before. Just wasn't going to own up to it on my first day.

Now he got on netflix..........

Think he has much motivation????????

at least you didn't "surprise" him while his crank was in his hand...

Actually when the boss is gone we all get lots of work done.

When he's in the office he runs around like a chicken with his head cut off, making stupid rash decisions and yanking us all in 5 different directions at once all the while fretting about having to lay everyone off one second and wondering if we should add staff the next.

I work for an idiot. An idiot with a serious bi-polar disorder that he medicates with scotch.

Thankfully he's rarely in the office for an entire day (spends a lot of time on the road delivering our product because he thinks its cheaper for him to do it than to hire delivery drivers, even though he sometimes wastes more money on the road than he makes) but at least he leaves most of us alone and we can ignore whatever stupidity he last dumped on us and get some real work done.

I'm so glad I took this week off.

Back in college, I used to work for a small sign shop, whose owner was like that. Definitely lots of rash decisions, but others that were wise. A lot of the time, he'd have his dad there at the shop (retired army vet) just to make deliveries so he didn't have to hire someone. It was pretty funny to watch, and this was during the boom of 2003-2005 when the economy was peachy. Every once in a while when the self-imposed stresses really got to him, he'd be out back sorting substrate for the signs and taking mental note of inventory, and we'd catch him with a cigarette. It was funny because he was insistent that he didn't smoke. He'd always try to hide it or drop it behind his foot, hoping we wouldn't notice.

He needs to shave. Haha jk.

Finish up assigned task, 1/4 day field day, bill work done, then hack his account to buy shit.

[Ah Pook]

Download porn and abuse myself.

Oh, wait, I am the boss ...

You too?

Well, except the download pron part.

I get a new one every 12-24 months. Some are good and some are bad. I have learned that when ya get a bad one just keep your head down and count the months. In my current job I have had 13 of them.

My boss never shows up. Calls me maybe once per week for something. This is my "office":
