10 Differences Between You And Your Boss by Valiantvaliant(m): 1:30pm On Sep 09, 2012
1. When you take a long time, you're slow. When your boss takes a long time he is thorough.
2. When you dont do it, you're lazy. When your boss doesn't do it, he's too busy.
3. When you make a mistake, you're an id.i.ot. When your boss makes a mistake, he is only human.
4. When doing something without being told, you're overstepping your authority. When your boss does it, that's initiative.
5. When you take a stand you're being bull-headed, when your boss does it, that's initiative.
6. When you overlook a rule of etiquette, you're being rude. When your boss skips a few rules he's being original.
7. When you please your boss, you're apple polishing. When your boss pleases his boss, he's being co-operative.
8. When you're out of the office, you're wandering around. When your boss is out of the office he's on business.
9. When you're on a day off sick, you're always sick. When your boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill.
10. When you apply for leave, you must be going for an interview. When your boss applies for leave, its because he's overworked.

Very very true. Especially 1 and 4.
I have been in a situation when I had to mark scripts (maths,physics,fmaths,comp. Sci) for nine different classes. I was asked to solve the question and prepare the marking guide. In addition to that I was supposed to teach.
I was also compiling registar and students results.
When I couldn't make it on time they said I was slow and unseriouscheesy.
Its good to be the boss anyway.

The female boss can be ruthless at times. Not just to their fellow females but male workers inclusive. Some go to the extreme of even heaping insults on others.
Some male bosses can also be problematic. They want to bully their fellow male or harass the female workers.
All in all every job has its challenge.

Thats true, but some times I try not to be a god to my employees, but it seems most of them deserve to be pushed hard.


But all in all Bosses are only human.
