Employer!!! :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:
I would explain but it would bore you to tears.
Sorry about the page length. It does however give an indication of the amount of frustration I'm having right now.
:madder:
 
Deep breathely, lad.

That which don't kill ya an' all that.

You're SHORT. You're FIGMO.

...go outside an' stare at th' moon for a few minutes. Just remember: we've been there.

Perspective.
 
I feel pretty, oh so pretty...
 
Sooo many retorts, so little umm...


...anyway, I stand by th' "gander at th' moon" comment.
 
YOU are allowed to go postal!!!! (by definition!!) If you can't...who can?
 
Feel muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch better today. Same ole "stuff" going on ,but had that ephinany today. No matter how much I am right, I am wrong. No matter how much time you say I can save, I can waste it. No matter how much you are an imbilcilic moron, you are my boss and sign my paycheck.

Management rule #1:

When things go well, credit the management.

When things go to poop, blame the staff.

I think it started back with Cheops ....

Something I learned long ago about the relationship between my wife and me:

I'm ALWAYS wrong.

Sure short-circuits a lot of problems! :wink:
 
It's wide because of that endless "groan" - the string of letters in the first post. BCF has to display as much as possible on a single line.

No "carriage return".

Or whatever a carriage return is called nowadays :smile:

Again I am sorry about the page. It was a REALLY bad day.
One more thing, I know it was meant as humor, but please do
not use that "going postal" line anymore. I know it is funny
until you realize where it came from. I'm not getting on to anyone and I appreciate the humor, but for me, it's not funny.
No offence taken. Thank you.

I never understood why some bosses act like that. My employees
saved my butt many, many times because I listened to their suggestions.

After all, they each know their jobs and professions better than I did so I appreciated their help and always requested it. Of course, I was honored to have a great team of hard workers who didn't hesitate to let me when I was wrong. Thank goodness.
 
Don: my 40 years of experience in these matters shows that you belong to a small minority. Bravo to you!!!
Some of the new MBA types in my company would devour a baby alive on public TV, just to get an advancement. It's really disgusting! :pukeface:
 
Frank - I remember my dad telling us that the "new" MBA's the company was hiring (Sinclair Refining) were great with numbers, charts, and jargon. But had very little in the way of people skills. Ground up the staff and spit 'em out faster than a rocket.

Dad was personnel manager for the Sinclair southwestern district. He always tried to hire new guys who could keep their staff and their customers - not just increase the profits.
