    mine is.

    i fcuking can't stand him. he was at one time the best in the business, however, he is now old, absolutely fcuking batshit crazy and completely out of touch with reality, constantly making the most demented and unrealistic demands I've ever heard, the going absolutely nuclear when said demands are not met. In fact I'm pretty sure he has an international reputation for being a basket case, in spite of which he's essentially become a guru in our subject matter. Talking to him is so mental, it's like climbing into one of the early pink floyd albums but nowhere near as fun as I'd expect that to be.

    I actually can't stand thinking about him - as I'm typing, the noise of my teeth grinding is drowning out the wonderful sound of the allman brothers. When I meet with him in his office, I have walter mitty-like fantasies of twisting his head until it comes off. I reckon it'd take two full turns.

    anyone else hate their boss as much as I hate mine?

    Well after taking all that into account, I am going to have to let you go.

    This is your two week notice to get any belongings you may have in the office and to clear out. Your Payslip and P45 will be in the post.

    Thank you

    :pac::pac::pac:

    imposter - if my boss saw this, he'd probably turn around and say "why for you are say these nice things for me? i think you are great also. let us go for a walk on saturn this afternoon, i'll sail us there on my balloon".

    I wouldn't be surprised if his birth cert said "place of birth: david lynch's mind."

    My boss is a nut too. Thankfully I only work part-time.

    For example, last week the lunatic smashed the wall in various places with a hammer, because he was convinced the staff were robbing stock and stashing it behind the wall. How he expected us to get the stock out from behind the wall without bringing it to his attention is beyond me...

    Don't really have a boss. But all the managers are wonderfully nice as far as managers go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,231 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    I've worked for so many cnuts, I've got "Tampon" as a qualification my CV.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    I boss is a cuunt. Well more of an idiot who will let some people walk all over him and then vent this aggression on the people who are nice to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Well lah di dah, aren't we terribly posh with our bosses and our employment :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭ascanbe


    He/she is for the very simple reason that he/she doesn't exist; very inconsiderate of him/her, I could use a job right now.
    Though potentially he does exist; I/he just hasn't got around to creating a job for me yet.
    So yeah; he's a cnut.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,211 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    I have 2. One is, one isn't.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,391 ✭✭✭✭mikom


    I'm my own boss.

    She's unbeleivable ! :mad:

    She tells me my appearance is scruffy n all this yet I'm one of the least scruffiest people ever. Even staff have come up to me and said "did she just say what i think she said to you?" and all this in shock like.

    I just complained to HR though so hopefully i'll be the one to say sooo loooong beeeatch ;)

    Having said that there's no chance they're gonna let her go over one small complaint from a 19 year old girl :rolleyes: :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 454 ✭✭Cadiz


    Have come to the conclusion that to be a boss you have to be an utter cnut..

    I was making fun of a Chiense menu the other day and when I got to a certain point a said "Oh ladi-da, a Diet Section" and the boss told me "Yeah, Too late."


    But I did get to kick him a few times in the Shin for that :pac:
