I am SOOOO bored! Your control issues keep me from doing anything. I sit here and get paid $20.41/hr to write bitches, watch porn and chat online.
You need to trust your staff. We are adults. We know our jobs. We can read and understand policies. We can follow procedures.
It’s your fear that YOU will look bad somehow that perpetuates a distrust of you. Think beyond the next day… —Aesop

confused i am, xeno? aidez moi
Aesop… you may not like what happens when you do this but do me a favour and ask your co-workers if they’re as under-utilized as you are. Because.. if they’re not it’s an issue between your boss and YOU, not your boss and everyone. Could be your boss’s issue. Could be your issue. Maybe he doesn’t like you or trust you, maybe you’re not trustworthy. But still.. i’d find out. Because if no one else is feeling the slack, you may want to get a job where you’re a little more appreciated.
Hell, i’d start looking anyway. Sounds like a horrible environment..
nowt to do wit me. Finally snowing down here!
I’m sure it would be a dream job for many…
it’s been a *weather bomb* free winter, up here
Hmmm…..substitute teacher, perhaps? guessing based on “The next day” and “Aesop”. Only hitch in my theory is the porn
So that’s what the union negotiating team is doing.
this must be one of your fables, hey aesop?
Watching porn on the company dime? I wouldn’t trust you either.
Boring.
Trollio/fail.
Meh.

My bosses are like matryoshka dolls – the smaller they get, the more controlling and petty they are.

Ivanski, you’re a fucking gem!
You know they can track what websites you visit, right? Somebody, somewhere, could easily find out how much time you’re spending on bigboobs.com.
>: ) I have my Bitchin’ Muses to thank for that. RAWK!
MONTREALMAN’S INTERNET ADVENTURE
Did you miss me for the past couple of days? Of course you did! I had an internet adventure. It went like this:
On Monday, Feb. 27, the DSL button on my modem kept on blinking with the result that I couldn’t access the Internet in general or Bitch in particular. So I phoned Bell and, pressing #3, got a technician in India! But I couldn`t understand her accent. Then Lori from Toronto came on and said that she would take care of things. However, she couldn’t contact Bell in Montreal and told me that she would e-mail them and be back in an hour.
However, an hour passed, so I went back to Bell and, Lo and behold! I was back in India! It was a guy this time but I still couldn’t understand him. Then AJ from Toronto came on and said that there would be a technician from Bell to come around and fix things up. However, the earliest he could come was Wednesday, Feb. 29, so I awaited his arrival.
He arrived promptly in the morning but after three hours(!) was unable to rexolve the problem. He had to leave but told me that the boss had ordered another technician to come by in the afternoon. The second technician, according to the first, had less training than him but he would solve the problem. I aked him, what could the second technician do that he (the first) couldn’t. He didn’t like that, and we parted on frosty terms.
The second technician went over everything carefully but still no luck. Then he asked if we had telephobes in the house and if they were supplied with filters. We said no, but promptly attached the phones to the filters. The modem stopped blinking! Success had been achieved!
All that remained was to re-start my Bell Internet account which required a password which, of course, I had forgotten. This required contacting Bell again which I did and, after two more hours, everything came up roses!
Just thought I`d share.
A pleasure as always.
Cheerio!
I love this bitch. It sucks to be micromanaged, especially if you really want to do the work, but are reduced to scouring facebook and the coast to pass the day. Case in point…
Another entitled asshole who can’t appreciate a good living. Sitting on porn at work will get your ass fired quicker than you can say bukkake.
What troodon said. You watch porn at work and expect them to trust you? You’re lucky to have a job. Maybe you should show more initiative.
Are ya’ll fucking dummies?!
The poster is forced to sit and watch porn/caaht/jerk off (whatever) as his/her boss is a control freak and WON’T allow the poster to do anything without his/her permission.
From the first sentence: “Your control issues keep me from doing anything.”
Really, READ it through first…?!
Ya I agree with troodon & Tommy…..porn at work is just not cool.
unless of course, it is a live porn show, giggety.
