The unavoidable boss

I was socialising with friends yesterday afternoon when all six of us were simultaneously struck down by the 'Sunday night blues'.  Conversation turned to the week ahead, in particular, to the compensating factor of having a boss away from the office for a few days.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a few 'boss-free' days is good for stress-levels and therefore productivity and that this is true irrespective of whether that boss is 'good', 'bad', hard', 'soft' or whatever.

My boss is never out of the office.  He always knows where I am and whether or not I've completed every task on my To Do List.  He also knows whether or not I did the work properly or just went through the motions.  In fact, there's no pleasing my boss.

I suppose this is why I'm still in business.
