Work is alright. My co-workers is alright. But do I have an ass of a boss to deal with. Working with him wasn't so bad in the beginning, but after nearly three years of dealing with him, I'm tired. He's full of s*** sometimes.
Example 1: He expects everyone to be on-time and on the ball. Sometimes I'm late by 15 minutes because of traffic. Here is telling me I have to stay an extra 15 minutes at the end of the day because I was late. This coming from a man who completely forgets appointments and is constantly late for meetings.
Example 2: He gets mad at me because I gave his cell phone number to a potential employee. He tells I'm not suppose to do that and would I like it if he gave my cell number to the workers to ask. His cell phone is for business use and potential employee is part of the business. My cell phone number is personal use and I personally pay for it. He has no right to even say such a thing.
Example 3: "My favorite" is when he gets mad over little mistakes like a typo in the bid proposal or invoice. He rails on about it for like a good 5 minutes when all he has to tell us what is wrong and we can correct. He has to go on and on and on and alert all the parties involved of this error before a correction is made. All this coming from a man who's sense of written organization is bad, he terrible writing, terrible grammer and misspells the same words over and over again even after reading the correct words. He goes over all the written the material before signing. It's my fault if the final has an error.
As you can see, he has all these high standards for everyone else but yet in his bizzare mind he's completely excluded from his standards. His wife likes to tell me that he was getting good grades when he was going for his medical degree, and at the same time he had a wife and three kids. Now tell me how is it possible that a man who can't keep his own schedule straight, can't spell and has bad grammer and has a lack of attention to detail make it through three years of medical school with a family and get good grades?
