freeflir29 0 #1 January 14, 2005 To laugh out loud and incessantly at your boss when he is trying to tell you about policies at work? Well.........I did about an hour ago. I guess he got the message though.......cause he called me back in about 15 minutes and did exactly as I asked him to. Anyone else ever do this?

Of course, he is usually telling us policies that his boss put into effect so we are laughing together at them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #5 January 14, 2005 Nah, I'm a total smartass to my big boss (the guy I report into). He says there's a precipice and I am always *just* on the right side of it but one of these days I'm going to fall right over the edge. Till then, I like to see what I can get away with."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #6 January 14, 2005 Oh...I just did some math. If I had gone to work like a good little soldier and NOT complained. From my START time on my "Monday" to my START time on my Wed I would have worked 19 hours and 45 minutes. I would have had 20 hours and 45 minutes off. TOTAL. I'm really not nuts.......they are!

girlygirl 0 #8 January 14, 2005 Of course you're not nuts. Sometimes you have to just tell your boss off when he or she or it is wrong. That's just life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Slappie 9 #9 January 14, 2005 I tell mine off all the time. I've even gotten into a real shouting match with him.

The REMF's tend to appear sheepish while they are sharpening their knives. Remember to think Strategic, not Tactical. "Yes, sir, and three bags full, sir" and all that crap.

Excellent choice, but don't jeapordize your ability to be in the driver's seat when the time comes. Say it with me: "Great idea, sir! Have you lost weight?" You have done way harder things for greater lengths of time. Nothing good comes from meetings that start off with "listen, fucker!" Unless, like me, you can be such a pain in the ass that they will give you a lifelong tax free pension just to be rid of you, just get out without putting the habeus grabbus on anybody.
