The Boss
My chief at a large retail chain used to decide on head office redundancies by chanting "One potato, two potato" over the staff list. Tell us about your mad psycho bosses - collect your P45 on the way out.
Bruce Springsteen jokes = Ban, ridicule

My years of bosses
Boss 1. My first real job I was 15 my boss was a weasly little man who used to send me out on errands in a black cab then count the change after, to see if i had given the driver a tip, if i had i got a bollocking, end result got well known in the West End cabbies refused to pick me up so i had to walk back or get a bus then get another bollocking for being so long.
Boss 2. This boss was an arsehole of the first water, he fucking knew it all our team of lab techs made his life a misery he collapsed at work and was carted off to a sanatorium for 6 months, he lost all his hair through stress when he came back to work it had grown back what did the knob head do managed to blow up a brand new incinerator about 60Ks worth and promptly burned all his hair off!!!!!
Sacked leaving yours truly to sort out the mess.
Boss 3. Rick was his name he was a gem a prince among men, I used to start work at 08:30 in the morning Rick was already there working his way into a bottle of brandy claiming that it made the coffee taste better, lunchtime staff social club 6 pints, after lunch another bottle of brandy, after work staff social club till it closed, after that prison officers social club next door.
He then used to blag a lift from coppers as he was too pissed to drive.
Plus side he left me alone, his female assistant made my life hell because i refused point blank to shag the ugly bitch and told her so across a crowded staffroom.
Me sacked
Boss 4 Delivering car parts he was a gem gave the key for the pick up a list of deliveries and said don't rush back, got a lot of sightseeing done
Boss 5 Senior tech was Polish couldn,t understand a fucking word he said he drank like a fish smelt like a goat thought he was gods gift to women I couldn't bear to be in the same room as him.
I left as quickly as I could.
Boss 6 By now I was working for a major car manufacturer this boss expanded my horizons by shipping me off to France and Spain for 3 years in my whole time I only saw him twice.
Me not sacked me very happy.
Boss 7 Back at college working in a pub to make ends meet, landlord drank himself to oblivion by 7pm, leaving me and his very fit 50 year old wife to clean up we used to clear out the customers lock up pull the curtains shut and fuck like rabbits, she was a howler he never once woke up once, went on for about a year, she ran off with a bloke who was 5 years younger than me, him sacked for being an incompetent twat.
Me not sacked brewery offered me a job with their anti fraud unit.
Boss 8 Working for a government dept by this time based in Bristol and Plymouth my boss adrian would turn up see if we were working OK, then fuck off to play golf.
Me made redundant
Boss 9 He was the chief accountant of the organisation I was employed by, a month after I arrived he resigned then spent 3 days in his locked office shredding every single piece of paper he could find when he was gone all his filing cabinets were empty, a week after that the police and inland revenue turned up looking for him.
Me not sacked MD lot of explaining to do.
Oh Happy Days

Don't listen to that lot.
I think you're brilliant, and welcome your future contributions.
In fact, if you fill each post with at least two screenfuls of irrelevant, punctuation-free detail, I'll click on them not once, not twice, but five times.
