So tell me which you would prefer - a male boss or female boss, and why.

None of the above. I want to be my own boss.

same here

[s]Same here, thank you! Although a female boss will tend to have less ego problems- that is, if she's not from my tribe.[/s]

i like to be the boss of some 1, but sha any how u have to live and dipen on some 1 b4 u will have your own independent so for me i prefar a male boss.

If I have to choose between two departments in the same company, I would look out 4 performance and not sex as a first option. And if they are rated equal in every way, I would choose the one whose physical appearance is more charming. My boss must be able to be a role model for me.
When u know that we come into this life as equal children of God, reincarnating again and again each time alternating between the sexes, then u can lose your likes and dislikes. The human mind is so strong as the prison-warden that locks us away from our divine knowledge, because it's best weapon is to make us like and dislike to create in us fear and anger, greed, lust for power/sex etc, vanity and undue atachment to our beliefs/properties. Spiritually though, the male is cut out for serving in the role of ultimate boss or spiritual leader of the universe! And u can't choose here.

I would go for a female boss. The women I worked for are usually better managers and know how to deal with people better. if you want to go for a clear objective in a competitive environment, I'd rather work with men, they're more focussed

definetely a male boss[has more power n control]

I'd have to say a female only because they would understand emotions better than men. I also tend to think they'd be more compassionate although I may be wrong. I've never had a female supervisor.

i prefer a male boss in case of someone who is matured and
not a sexmaniac and a female if a mother

A male boss, definitely!

It depends. I have two female bosses here in my curent job -- they're very nice. My last boss was a man but he was also very nice - in fact he was nicer. Most people prefer women when it comes to the ego problem but when it's a woman who might be interested in you sexually, forget it. They're very vicious.

Is this really a topic for debate/ discussion?
a boss is a boss is a boss
a bad boss is a bad boss is a bad boss
a good boss is a good boss is a good boss

What does sex have to do with it?
The next thing I know someone will be asking if you prefer a Jewish boss or a Black boss

I prefer a jewish boss!

but when it's a woman who might be interested in you sexually, forget it.

A female boss who might be interested in my sexy sexy self? Bring her to papa!

If she's the kind of woman you wouldn't touch with a sixty-foot pole what happens?

Try a 100 foot pole 

i personally prefer male bosses because females working under female bosses go through hell

hu do you prefer

wouldn't mind working UNDER Halle Berry

doesnt matter

I'd prefer a male boss because I can bend him anyway I want him.

male i guess 'cos they don't get into trivial issues around the office but i've worked with some females who really had cool heads on their shoulders and some guys who are simply ridiculous. but most times women are difficult pple when it comes to being bosses, probably because of their hormones (i don't know)

Who needs a boss when i'll be a boss?

I won't work under somebody (in Jesus Name -- Amen).

I don't have a preference. I don't think sex/gender determines what makes a good boss. It's the personality. I've had both bad and good bosses in both sexes. so now, I just hope for really good people until I never have to work for anyone again.

all my bosses are women, hate it , wish i had a male boss, maybe i d get better annual evaluations

most ladies will want a male boss,

I prefer a female boss,

, the charm works better on opposite sex

a male boss. when i was younger i used to work in a grocery store. we had a male as our boss, a very cool guy. he wasn't in anybody's business. his rule was "you do your work, and i will do mine". that all changed when he was transferred to another store. in exchange we got a lady as our new boss. i don't know what makes them(ladies) worst. is it their cycle or bad sex life? i mean this lady fired 10 people under 1 week(including the ppl who had the job as their career).

furthermore, she was always in everybody's business. her rule was " i run this store, if i don't like you, your fired". i guess she had the business woman mentality(don't really care about anyone's feelings, as long as her store is bringing in the highest profits).

anywho, since am a lady, i would prefer a male boss just because *yea, you know why*. but who really cares. am all grown now, running my own office.

Female Bosses in my experience tend to be too bitchy. 

Male all the way!!!

gimme male!

I don't wanna do my performance review on the wrong day of the month with a female boss if u know what i mean

If more female bosses behave the way i do, they would definitely be preferred. 
But since most of them don't, what a pity, i prefer male bosses. I think most females prefer male bosses too. there is definitely a reason why. I wont say though. 

I prefer male bosses too, female bosess are a nightmare most project leaders i've worked with are female, they are always --- i don't even have a word for them in my Vocab
