Work of Me and My Boss

Monday, August 25th, 2008

When I Take a long time to finish, I am slow,
When my boss takes a long time, he is thorough

When I don’t do it, I am lazy,
When my boss does not do it, he is busy,

When I do something without being told, I am trying to be smart,
When my boss does the same, he takes the initiative,

When I please my boss, I am apple polishing,
When my boss pleases his boss, he is cooperating,

When I make a mistake, I’ am an idiot.
When my boss makes a mistake, he’s only human.

When I am out of the office, I am wondering around.
When my boss is out of the office, he’s on business.

When I am on a day off sick, I am always sick.
When my boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill.

When I apply for leave, I must be going for an interview
When my boss applies for leave, it’s because he’s overworked

When I do good, my boss never remembers,
When I do wrong, he never forgets

Why employee on leave without prior notice

Friday, January 25th, 2008

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialed the employers home phone number and was greeted with a Child’s’ whisper.

“Hello”"Is your daddy home?” he asked

“Yes” whispered the small voice

“May I talk with him?”

“No”

Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your Mummy there?”

“Yes” (more…)
