Idiot Boss (Small Napoleon)

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR BOSS

When you take a long time, you're slow.
When your boss takes a long time, he's thorough.

When you don't do it, you're lazy.
When your boss doesn't do it, he's too busy.

When you make a mistake, you're an idiot.
When your boss makes a mistake, he's only human.

When doing something without being told, you're overstepping your authority.
When your boss does the same thing, that's initiative.

When you take a stand, you're being pig-headed.
When your boss does it, he's being firm.

When you overlooked a rule of ettiquette, you're being rude.
When your boss skips a few rules, he's being original.

When you please your boss, you're arse-creeping.
When your boss pleases his boss, he's being co-operative.

When you're out of the office, you're wandering around.
When your boss is out of the office, he's on business.

When you're on a day off sick, you're always sick.
When your boss has a day off sick, he must be very ill.

When you apply for leave, you must be going for an interview.
When your boss applies for leave, it's because he's overworked.

idiot boss (small Napoleon)

Some saying found on Internet:

"It's an honored tradition — working for an "idiot" boss. They don't take suggestions, don't think efficiently and don't make your job easier. If you've seen the movie "Office Space," you know the drill."

Bad manager - selfish, kiasu and JS

This morning, i was pissed by one small Napoleon in our Spore office.

Honestly, in today society, plenty of peoples join the work force with a skill set their bosses will never have. And so you find a lot of competent people working under incompetent managers.
Although i don't report to him but there still indirect reporting and overlapping here and there. His selfishness and job security (JS) protectionism is unbearable.

Sunshine Empire - is there still hope after all?

I make a call to BNM this afternoon but the person that pick-up my call only mentioned that is
now a court case. Finally, the truth came out and i hope that our money still there somewhere in Spore, Malaysia or in Hong Kong.

My lost (stolen) wallet - a painful emotional loss

30 January 2008; Wednesday@11pm.
A motorcyclist grabbed my falling wallet from behind and speed away. This happened right before me and in front of my house. This guy just did it, belittling and disgracing his so called soil people title. I am sure he is staying in the same neighborhood.

He probably needs my money to feed his family but at the same time, he probably went and had a good shopping spree with money that i have saved for my kid's ang pau. I was thinking hard about his family upbringing and his religion. I am hard on this issue because they always claimed their religion is righteous, the best and holy but contrary when come actions and reality - they are no where close. All that happening around me confirmed the hollowness of this whole thing.

The must painful part is the emotional loss. I can't sleep that night. Over my carelessness, I've lost all my documents. A new ic cost you RM$110, your driving license, credit cards (RM$50 for each replacement), my insurance cards and many others.

I am comforted that i saw this email in my mail box this morning.

The Prayer:

Father, I ask you to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask you to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. In Jesus' precious name. Amen.
