Scary little framing managerI work for a large arts and crafts corporation. A new store in the chain had just opened and I had been recruted there for any position.

more It's due tomorrow! Why aren't you more positive?My idiot boss was mad at me because he held a meeting and announced that we had a huge project (that he had not even begun his part on) due in 15 days. I tried not to react, as anything I said would've come out negative. Then, I am told that he is angry with me because I did not immediately say some...
more The Big ChurchMy boss is the biggest waste of payroll I've ever seen. He is on the Internet all day looking at his stocks and thinks nobody knows. He holds a paper up to his monitor, like we can't guess what he's doing or check the Internet logs (which we've been doing for years). He lets all his church buddies g...

more PhD = stuPhDI had a professor that came storming out of his office one morning. "The electricity is off, the electricity is off..." I looked around. My computer was on, the lights were on all around... I looked at him quizzly... The electricity is off? Yes he responded... my clock is not working....
more The Whipping BoyI have a problem. It's not just with one particular boss, it's with every place I have ever worked. I do not consider myself one of those who refuses to stand up for himself. I am a chef who has succeeded in everything he has ever attempted.
I have always been the whipping boy, the stick, the...
more Pine-Sol in the water coolerI work for a finance co; recently my manager dum-dum decided to she wanted to disinfect the water cooler. I didn't think much of it until a little later when I walked into the breakroom, she had took off the plastic water bottle & was running pine-sol through it! She did run hot water through it...
