Bosses

At work today, my boss announced he was establishing a company gym membership plan. At first, I was really excited. Then I saw the gym. It was an exclusive boxing training area. My boss boxes. Nobody else does. It's great for him, I guess. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, the boss decided to be nice and buy the staff some pizza for lunch. Great idea. Except I work in a kitchen. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, the main dining room was being repainted by a crew. I went inside with my boss. "Hmm," he growled, "this is more of a peach than the pink hue I wanted." The walls looked green. Remind me not to eat his peaches. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, my boss called me into his office. Lately, we've had a lot of layoffs in the department. He kept me on pins and needles for twenty minutes. I didn't get fired. Just a 5% paycut. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, my eye was a little red because of some trouble with my contact lenses. I figured it would eventually get better as the day went on. I was wrong. Midday, my boss said that pinkeye wasn't so bad. After all, he told me, he'd had scabies. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, my boss came back from a two week vacation to the south of France. Naturally, he spent the whole day complaining: about the people, the wine, the food, and the flight. I listened to it. I took my last vacation to the Jersey shore. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, we were all hoping for a reprieve from a busy breakfast. We were denied. I must have had 8 full tables of customers. Later, I caught the owner complaining. "Am I supposed to take this money to the bank now?" he said. I still make minimum wage. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, a guy with a really bad haircut came in to buy some hair gel (not get a haircut). I sold him some, and as he walked out my manager glared at me. "If you did that to him," she said, "I'm very proud of you." She was serious. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, I had to prep veggies and I realized my knife was on its last breath. I asked the manager for $11 to buy one. He told me that we were seeing hard times and that he would sharpen it. He went outside. He came back with a broken knife and $11. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, I told my boss he could probably find someone cheaper to do my current job, and that would enable me to get a promotion. He said there's not really room for a promotion. But he is genuinely interested in finding a less expensive replacement for me. I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, I had the supremely unpleasant realization that I'm broke. Just in case you didn't know, that's a bad thing. To try and recover, I asked my boss for a raise. He asked me why. I told him for the money. He said that was "so coarse." I'm dumbemployed.

At work today, my boss had me google the "facts" that she had fabricated for a presentation. My instructions were to find out if anything was obviously false. Otherwise, it stayed in. I'm dumbemployed.
