An Ex Boss. He always held a "staff meeting" so he could rattle off "his" accomplishments. On Fraiday. At 4:00PM. In Atlanta. Gee fucking thanks.

Holy shit. I had a boss like this. Basically paid for an audience.

There are lots of them. I got another one just like him a few years later. Mercifully he did his brag meeting Tuesday afternoons. I started having doctor and dentist appointments on Tuesday afternoons. After the second time he made a rule we couldn't take off early on Tuesdays. So then I started taking off every other Tuesday on vacation. Then I took to eating fart foods Monday night and Tuesdays at lunch. Then I would fart silently in his brag meetings. I tried everything to piss him off.

But true. Just because they are the boss doesn't mean they know shit.

If I'm holding a meeting at 4:00pm on a Friday the only matter of business is going to be what time to meet at the sports bar.

A rare manager you are.
