National Boss Day

[Toro]

Never knew it existed until today. My Secretary gave me two fine cigars, really made my day. Knowing OOT, I'm sure you all can top that.

I'm already giving my boss close to 1/3 of my life. That's enough.

Wow, people actually celebrate "National Boss Day"? One of my coworkers and I noticed it on the calendar yesterday and joked about it; didn't realize people took it seriously.

Maybe I'll actually do a full hours worth of work today.

I'm talking sixty minutes.

"non-mandatory but highly encouraged potluck" for staff to feed the bosses at my law firm.

Be careful. Doing too much too quickly could have unintended disastrous results like an increase in workload or the dreaded higher expectations.

Email from my boss today:

Well, it is all very nice of you to honor the boss types around here, whomever they may be, on this beautiful day, but I do not want anyone to think that this type of hallmark ritual changes any of the basic analysis--- that every day is bosses day as far as I am concerned and I expect you all, with our thanks of course, to work your selves within an inch of your lives every second you are here and even when you are not here. Life is not about fun, but work and more work, as all of you who help us here know, and then, as a reward, most of us will die at some point.

My secretary is out sick today. I'm giving her a hard time on e-mail.
