Ah grand. I teach Visual Art and Digital Art. I always wanted to go into admin, but now I can't see myself doing anything outside the classroom.

A job at another company.

What a stench.

My boss is exactly like that guy in office space... the way he tries to get you to do what he wants in a non-confrontational way.....

"Um...yeah, I'm going to need you to stop what you're doing and made an ad sign for the gatorade."

Damn it, he was right next to it. He could have made the sign. Mr. Delegation.

One of the techs and I are talking about debugging a bad board and the boss walks by and says "Huh???" We have to stop and explain what we're talking about, which is way above her pinhead, and she knows it.

After a minute or two of technobabble from us, she interrupts again and says "Okay..." and walks away.


Can you say "idiot?"

Next time, just keep walking and mind your own business, fool. :mad:

Her and her hubby own the company.

And one of their sons is the VP.

Ahhh, nepotism.

I worked at a place like that once, it really wasn't that bad, the husband was an engineer, the wife did the books, and they stayed out of each others way. [/list:u]

It's the same here, but the hubby works offsite.

I guess he can't stand her either. :hehe:

The only problem we ever had was that everyone had the distinct impression that the wife didn't trust anybody, she thought we were all out to steal them blind. Maybe we should have!!! :mrgreen:

Why are customers so helpless? I mean, it's not just that they can't find anything in a store, it's that they need to be led by the hand otherwise they'd freak out. I rarely ask for help at other stores...most of them are logically laid out to find stuff. Most of the time.

Maybe I'm just upset because I spent three hours as the only customer service rep on the floor, answering calls and helping out ten customers at once. Then my boss has the gall to infer that I was slacking off in my stocking duties.
