Stupid grumpy boss

[i_amtrunks]

Work slower.

I'm in a similar position Bartrim, where I am online to combat boredom, but working slower works wonders for when you have the boss hovering around near your desk and you cant peruse the internets.

ANd the only way complaining about smokers bludging will work, is if the boss himself is not a smoker.

If he is a smoker then you can point out the hypocrisy of him allowing himself to have a smoke-bludge but not allowing you to have a cyber-bludge. Although, this won't work if you're also a smoker as you'd be doubling up on your work bludges.

Thanks for the support guys

Unfortunately the manager is not a smoker. He's a facist that wants to cut any form of "bludging"out of work ie: No smoking, all mobile phones to be turned off etc etc.

I think this is grossly unfair considering I do work during morning tea and lunch because they usually are busy periods. I've tried warning this guy about the backlash a-hole managers get from their staff but he doesn't listen. If they play hardball with me I'll just let them know that since I work during lunch and morning tea and don't get my official breaks (15min morning tea, 30 minutes for lunch) then I'll just leave 45 minutes earlier.

Also what the jerk doesn't realise is that I also need the internet for work. If they lock me out then that means more work for him because he will have to do all the online work

find out where his phone number

then get your nephew or some local teenage drop out to ring him

he'll think again that the trip to Thailand back in 1999 was no hassles

or just make a jelly and put it in his desk draw

Ruin His Career!!!

Shag his Missus, no matter how ugly she is.

Even if you get fired, it'll definitely be worth it.

Here's the thing Pulse. Being a grumpy, surly, douchebag usually means that your marriage fails...or his case marriages fail (yes he is a double divorcee). I can't imagine why anyone would divorce him

HAHAHA, that will serve him to quite well in particularly since you mentioned that he dislike the internet... he will be wishing that he hadn't done that..

And you can demand more money (worth a try) if they want you to use the internet again :P LOL
