Try working in an office with only one other person - and that person being your boss. Who is a complete idiot. He has the memory of a goldfish, and forgets everything. He will tell me to do a task, and 10 minutes into it he will say, "Why are you doing that"? Or he will forget to ask me to do something and then get mad at me for not doing it. He can never remember to call potential clients back, and acts like it's my fault that we are not at 100% occupancy. For example, if I show someone an apartment and give them an application, and they never turn it in, THAT he will remember and then somehow I did something to cause them to not want it.

Also, as I don't have a set schedule, he will say, "Can you come in tomorrow at 10:30 to file?" So I show up at 10:30 and he asks why I'm late, cause he told me to come in at 8 or some shit like that. One time he accused me of losing an application for an apartment. He made a huge deal out of it and he hadn't even looked for it before accusing me. After searching for it I had discovered that he had already filed it, and all the sudden it wasn't a big deal anymore. He makes mistakes all the time, and trys to pawn them off on me. Every time, it's like the end of the world, unless I can prove he did it and then it's not a big deal. But when I make a mistake, even a typo or just a mind slip, he humiliates me by training me all over again and explaining why it needs to done this or that way.

He talks nonstop about his son, and I have to listen to every story about every thing this spoiled brat does. He will tell me the same story over and over again, day after day, because he can't fucking remember that he told me already. Plus he always asks me to buy this kid's damn fundraiser stuff. I have been working for this fool for months, and just last week I found out he has 3 other kids. I feel so bad for them! His one son gets everything including a go kart, and his other kids seem like they don't even matter to him. I also feel bad for his wife. He goes to dating websites for sugar daddies, which makes me very uncomfortable cause I'm a 20 year old woman. It makes me wonder if that is why he hired me, cause before I found this out, he was telling me how all the other applicants for my job were old and "unpolished".

During a usual day, he will take several trips out of the office and be gone for 1 to 3 hours, or he will leave early and still get claim he worked those hours. When he is here, he is on facebook or watching tv shows online. Today he was watching a tv show, I was in the back room doing something, and the phone rang. 1 ft from his fucking face. He called me in to answer it when it was right in front of him. Then the person asked for him! So I gave the phone to him and he looked like he wanted to kill me.

Yesterday my boss told us in all seriousness "not to mistake his weakness for kindness". There was no correction.

Last week a co-worker asked my boss (who is a carbon copy of the boss on office space) if he could find someone to remove a pallet of merchandise from the salesfloor, because she couldn't move it. He insisted she shoot him an email about it. Mind you, he has to walk past me to get to the offices. So my co-worker on her way back asked me to remove the freight, and to humor him sent him an email. FIVE hours later he called me to remove the long since removed pallet

My boss is a complete idiot.... Out of everyone on the team I am the only one with a college education, I also get paid the least!!....I like to read Entrepreneur magazine and one day I brought it in.....he looks at it and asks me "what is an en-trep-en-er". Ugh what a moron. When it comes to work he is always "busy"...staring at the wall and eating all day, maybe the occasional email. I bring ideas up to him such as how to use social sites to boost our sales.....that was 8 months ago......he went out and bought facebook and twitter for dumbies....still doesn't understand how it will work. I took a report that used to take everyone at least 2 hours (myself 20 minutes) and automated it where it only took 3 minutes, simple cut and paste and the numbers would generate themselves. Well It took me four months to teach him how to use it and it still takes him an hour. When I cam on board the team he asked me......entry level person to teach the assistant manager her job!!! Shes a moron too

I'm spending my Thanksgiving holiday working from home. My stupid boss called me with an HR "emergency". He received a complaint from an employee who's offended someone said "Black Friday" earlier this week. Can't wait for next month and all the complaints about "White" Christmas I'm looking forward to.

My stupid boss received a mangled piece of mail from the post office. It was an invoice that he had sent out. Somehow, it was so mangled that the only thing legible was our address and a portion of the address it should have been sent to. This invoice was in shreds. I arrived to work with a note in bold, red ink asking me to talk to him before I did anything about this shredded invoice. With his hand shaking he asked me what I would do. I told him I would re-invoice the client, he added, "Is that all?". He wanted me to go to the post office and have them refund the value of the postage!!!! I couldn't stop laughing. Later, as I retold this story a friend told me I should have taken the shredded paper, left for the day, and come back hours later with 44 cents, and tell my boss that I took on the post office and won!
