The BOSS

Throughout my life, as I am sure we all have, I have had good bosses and some, to put it nicely, not so good bosses. For the past 3+ years I have been bless with the most awesome boss. He most definitely rules the roost, makes me jump at his beckon call, and I have to admit I have been spit on, screamed at, kicked....... We can stop there, but the list could go on and on and on. The pay is pretty shabby, not anywhere around minimum wage and  I work over time every week, without a doubt. If my Boss needs something at three in the morning, guess who he calls on, ME! My Boss is very good at telling me what the "rooz" (rules) are and makes it clear that I understand them. Today in the car I got a very harsh warning if I took a bite of the fruit roll-up I was opening for him I would be in trouble, big trouble. If I forget to let him do the things he likes to do "BY HIMSELF" it is likely he will start crying and might end up on the floor kicking and screaming. I guess that's what makes a good boss a "good boss" is that he gets what he wants done, done, and done the right way. My boss has mastered this. When he says jump, I leap, when he says run, I sprint, you get the point. Normally I would be critical about a boss like this, but not this one, most the time it is just praise coming from my mouth. On the up side he gives great rewards and most the time makes you feel like the only thing important on this planet, the one thing he wants the most. So it makes it worth all of the "other stuff." I am positive this is the job I want forever. Thanks BOSS for providing me with this great job and making my life exciting.

I love this post! You are always so good at words. Isn't "being Mom" the best job there is?

So, it took me reading at least half the post to realize you weren't talking about Dr. Beckstrom! I'm serious, and I thought.. really, you've been spit on and kicked at work. I was thinking you should change jobs, and then I finally put it all together. Yes, cutest "Boss" ever!
