Today is my last day of a 'normal' life. I'm quitting my job and house and leaving my cats in the hands of some noob for a while whilst I do nothing productive and have glorious fun all summer.
Its my last day at work. At 4.30 I will be leaving my so so whiney boss! She moans for at least 4 hours about literally anything every day! She picks one or two things and tells every person she sees about it in great detail in an outraged tone until the other person backs out of her office or hangs up the phone.. Should I take my last chance and tell her to be more goddamn positive, or go out on a good note?
Anyone told their boss what they really think? result?
DO IT!
Do it through the medium of song
even if she's upset, it'll be entertaining.
No, but you can tell your boss what I REALLY think of my boss if you want!
He's alright. I'm going to his wedding reception this weekend, actually. And we play golf together
twat the cunt
she deserves it for being in a position of authority over you
damn straight!
Fuck it, why not?
What have you got to lose.
I often told my old boss what I thought of her, but covered it up as a joke... She was fucking useless, employing people because 'they were nice boys' despite them all being the least charismatic incompetent bastards in the entire world.
I almost hate to ask...
...was she the one that employed you?
Haha
I set myself up there a little but no, I was employed by a Korean workaholic.
You
don't work for a company that deals with virtual horse racing by any chance, do you? And if so, do you know Alan Gore? He's employed by workaholic Koreans, and he bloody loves it
Alan Gore?
Sometimes known as Al? No, I don't work for a virtual horse racing company. Sounds like fun though.
Will she listen?
Ask yourself this before you waste your breath.
she'll listen if youre screaming into her ear
while dunking her in the toilet
:p
its a risk...
But she needs a wake up call, you know? But DO 60 year olds listen to kids like me? Honestly, the last thing she does before she goes to sleep is have a moan about work to her husband IN BED!! WHAT is that about? And WHY do I know that?
oh if she's 60
leave her alone. she's not going to change probably and it'll just upset her.
I could understand you doing it if you hate her and just want to vent it but if you're doing it to give her a wake up call/help her then just leave it.
^ pretty much this
I think the only thing that can change the mentality of someone of that age and past it is a bloody nasty shock, i.e. a near death experience.
an entirely new avenue of fun to explore!
remove one of her limbs while telling her she's a piece of shit.
I'm going to tell my boss what I think in a meeting next week.
And I'm not even leaving my job. <gulp>
support, support
Will it ultimately achieve boss/worker equalibrium if we take them down a peg? Can we do this as a nation of general DiS staff?
Power to US!
depends whether you need
a reference or not.
reference shmeference
What's the point?
Be rid of her, walk out head high and think about all the things you can enjoy doing this summer. Bollocks to negativity, you'll probably only end up looking a prize twat doing it.
^ ban request
my first one!
hooray!
these boards durring the day have an air of Falling Down about them
I'm a bit scared of all you office people in your shirts ready to snap :S
What about those of us who aren't wearing shirts?
Are we safe?
yeah!
I'm shirtless too. But I am in a very bad mood :D
yeah your ok
unless you have taken it off in a rage?
make a thread about it on here
then email her a link to said thread, which will detail all your problems with her but avoiding any sort of confrontation.
hopefully she'll post something back.
She'll realise that for the last year
I've done a maximum of 2% work each day. I don't want to be busted! I think she thinks I'm vaguely respectable at the moment..
maybe you should exact some secret poo related revenge
you fancy him don't you?
Start a fight
like the one Ace Ventura has with the mascot at the end of the film.
Dirty protest
Saying what you think of her. Written on her desk. With HER poo. That'd freak her out.
bit much maybe?
would her blood do?
both would be best
a bit like alphabetty-spaghetti.
I'll take a photo
If you need a reference off her for when you come back then be careful
otherwise feel free
I'm quitting life to be a have fun!
who needs a reference?!
Save your breath.
You're outta there to 'be a have fun'. Presumably everybody else knows she's a whiny cow, so why bother?
*have fun
Right.
Here's what to do. Go out and buy a can of WD40. At the end of the day, sneak it into her office drawer with a note saying "I think you need to loosen up". It may take her three months to find it, but she'll eventually get *some* kind of message.
I'm going to go with you're suggestion!
love it:)
And, by the time she gets it, the culprit will not necessarily be me :) Perfect!
^ 5
:D
No - ou will need a reference at some point.
Walk out of their with head held high... thankful you will never have to look at the prune's face again.
happy new life!
