Where do I start? My Boss takes about four,two to four week vacations a year,sparing no expense. Yet,I am asked if we could possibly "re-ink" typewriter tape instead of just buying some new tape. All our equipment dates back to when I was in grammar school,so instead of just ponying up a little extra dough-guess what? We get to ship it out to be fixed over and over.
This man belongs to a yacht club,and this past holiday season,took his staff(all three of us)to an "appreciation" dinner. He ordered salad and a glass of water,expecting us to follow suit. My coworkers disregarded him and ordered what they wanted. I ordered something I thought wasn't too expensive. The next day, the office manager gets the reciept of the dinner on her desk, with the total, and the alcoholic drinks circled in red ink. He loves to use that red pen. He also loves to get his point across subtly, because he doesn't have the balls to confront anyone face to face.
My boss discriminates against our patients that can't afford to live a certain lifestyle, by basically not giving them the same attention as someone who's daddy can afford to give them sailing or horseriding lessons.
He creeps around the office, hoping to catch us in a non-working-mode moment.He comes in twenty to forty-five minutes late most days, making patients wait, and moving at the pace of a snail like he's on a stroll through the park.
When you look at him before he sees you, you can see the transformation from a normal expression, to a big, fake smile. It's creepy. He is so fake,that when something pleases him, he makes this face like he's having an old man orgasm.
He also likes to explain the procedure he wants me to do for a patient like it's brain surgery-very slow and repetitious,and he gets in your face and explains things like it's a life or death matter.
He makes ridiculous little messes around the office and pretends he didn't realize that he did. And if I enter the bathroom after he does, oftentimes there are skid marks and dribbles on the seat-not the bowl-THE SEAT.
Yes,while he may not sound as bad as a boss who sends a death ray with his eyes and verbally abuses his staff(that was my last boss)seeing him walk through the door in the morning makes me groan with disappointment.
