I think I got you beat. I work for a jackass who was promoted to management because he misrepresented his education (lied that he had a masters) to upper management. He's never managed people before. He is scatterbrained and unfocused. He plays favorites and protects his favorite who is a complete imbecile. He talks trash about everyone behind their back. He spends half the day socializing and chatting with others. He doesn't know his ass from his elbow regarding technology though he holds an IT title. He constantly takes two hour lunches and is protected by his boss. He is indecisive, has a big weak ego, and loves red tape, has no concept on motivating people or holding people accountable (probably because he imitates his boss's management style). He's homophobic and yet obsessed with gays and lesbians He's a liar and attempts to bully people, especially women. I could go on and on but you get the picture...
Why havent you punched that punk ass in the face?Have you at least told him he's a dick and shouldnt be employed anymore,much less allowed to walk around "normal" people?
Ha. The CEO of our company is a pompous fucking idiot and a bully. One time he came into the kitchen (I'm a chef) and blew his fuckin' lid at me, swearing, screaming, the whole nine yards for something another person miscommunicated with him. Then he storms out ot his office, when he turned around to sit at his desk he see's me closing his door, basically I asked him if he'd like to speak to me like that in the parking lot. Long story short, he apologized before I finished my sentence and hasn't spoken to me that way since. Oh yeah, also one of the products I created pulls about $12-15 million a year. Gotta maintain your humanity.
The "one" I speak of is a tamale labeled under Isabella's Kitchen, it's sold regionally at Costco. It pulled over $1 million in the bay area in December.
Here's my contribution: My boss "joked" about replacing me with another "hot chick" yesterday. Our team consists of ultra-vixen diva girl and the hottest (and also sweetest) girl in the company, my boss and me. It's great that he has a framed photo of him with both of them on the desk - minus me - wjhich is a real motivator for me. He is also ultra homophobic (he must have mentioned the fact that two girls in our building are...shock...gay, but that they are "OK" about a 100 times to me) and hates fat people or poeple who "whine", and don't even whisper about gay men, he shudders. Basically, all work sucks - unless u work for S7 - and that probably sucks sometimes too.
Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, did you get it in yet?" Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, can you save me three?" Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, is it in now?" Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, can you help me out?" Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, can you get me (insert product here)?" Ring... Ring... Ring... "Hey Ramos, what do you mean it's not in yet?"
The joke from my bosses here is to be replaced with a retarded monkey. This usually comes when things aren't going at all to plan and everything is spiralling out of control - "A retarded monkey could do better...". Reduced a few to tears in my time here that's for sure!!
I'm paranoid my boss is going to find this post, though he's much too stupid I probably shouldn't worry I don't even want to put alot of thought into why he is such a pile, I get so angry just thinking about the bs I have to put up with, alot of it is similar to Liquid's, but right now I'm dealing with this, I am salaried and pretty much work my 40 on the nose, I took a half day 2 fridays ago and I was docked 4 hrs. Correct me if I'm wrong, Labor Laws say even if you show up to the job and work 15 min you get paid the whole day of 8 hrs, right? So I tell payroll I should get the 4 and then I tell my asseater, I mean boss, about how I was shorted and he says to go tell payroll. Then the following monday he asked why I thought I should be paid the full 8 and I was forced into saying IT'S THE FUCKING LAW. So, to make a long story short, he argued and said fine, but you're back on the clock. Um, yea, is there a lawyer in the heezy, oh and this guy's not a homophobe, he actually likes pinching my ass. Wow, too much said!
i am salaried too. 40 hours a week if i take off an hour, they will make me give them an hour of my time. pretty standard practice, from what i can tell
yea well let's just say where I work we do nothing by standard practice here's a quote from the Labor Law site stick your tongue all the way in there mofo
if you can prove to the DOL that your status was changed from exempt to non-exempt as a form of retaliation or punishment for taking time off, then your boss may get fried.
unfortunately, I might just have to take it there I work for a guy who can't even spell MIGHT he spells it like the bug, "I mite have to get a lawyer" and I have to take directions from this fucking moron daily!!!!!!!!!
