Ah, yes, when a male boss is a gigantic turdface who makes everyone cry, he's "assertive" and "gets results".

When a female boss behaves in identical fashion, she's "bitchy" and "doesn't get on with people".

Some days I just hate people. Today is turning into one of those days.

I <em>totally</em> needed that. Fortunately, nightmare customer says he's gone home for the day. He said he was going out before lunch but that never stopped the endless stream of phonecalls telling me to stop doing what he just said 5 minutes ago was the top priority and do the totally unrelated thing that he now totally needs immediately or sooner, so I'm not assuming that I'm definitely done being harassed. More fortunately, I'm almost done with nightmare customer's big lump'o'work that I've been slogging through the last several weeks. Less fortunately, that means I'll have to get to the other stuff that's been getting backlogged while he's been monopolizing my time.

Thanks for listening ;)

I've never had a Lady Boss.

Maybe it is because, like a Lady Coworker told me when she found out I was supporting Obambi the Un-electable over The Great Lady Hillz of My Turn-ness, I am sexist.

...I have worked under many female supervisors, for the most part they fall into 2 categories. <strong>Category A:</strong> Fukking Awesome and <strong>Category B:</strong> Completely in over their head(you may notice that these are the same categories that male bosses fall into as well). Unfortunately your ABG has been out of work for the past 2 months, because he could not stand working for a category "B" boss!

<strong>MORAL OF THE STORY</strong>: time to get a beer...
