It happens in our work place

Perspectives...

When I take a long time I'm slow
When my boss takes a long time she's thorough

When I don't do it I'm lazy
When my boss doesn't do it she's busy

When I make a mistake, I'm an idiot.
When my boss makes a mistake, she's only human.

When I do something without being told, I'm overstepping my authority
When my boss does the same, that's initiative

When I take a stand, I'm being bull-headed
When my boss does it, she's being firm.

When I overlooked a rule of etiquette, I'm being rude
When my boss skips a few rules, she's being original

When I'm out of the office, I'm wandering around
When my boss is out of the office, she's on business

When I'm on a day off sick, I'm always sick
When your boss is a day off sick, she must be very ill

When I apply for leave, I must be going for an interview
When my boss applies for leave, it's because she's overworked

When I please my boss I'm crawling
When my boss pleases his boss, she's co-operating

When I do good, my boss never remembers
When I do wrong, my boss never forgets........

If your boss thinks that way about you, I'd advise either seeking new employment or improving your performance so maybe you can be the boss someday.

I don't respond well to people I am supposed to think of as "boss". This blog reminds me why. I hope you find something where you are more appreciated!

Hmmm....sounds all to familiar. My mum finally decided to quit her job at a local call center. They are royally screwed up. If you say one thing, ONE THING, that is not in their script...you fail your call. As a matter of fact, my mum and those in her class (those who do not suck up) have yet to be graded with a passing call. Forget the fact that she's solved the callers problems...
