Free at last, free at last...

I don't like my boss.

Not only is he a complete moron, but he seems to think that women shouldn't be allowed in the computer field. (This was actually an observation that one of my male co-workers made one day.) There are only two female technicians on his team, and both of us got left out of a pretty important 2-day training class on a new software rollout.

Then he had the nerve to complain that I wasn't taking tickets that involved problems with this software that he wouldn't train me for.

The fact that I don't feel the need to share every thought that enters my head also always seemed to make him uncomfortable.

He's never on time, and he rarely puts in the minimum 40-hour week. He told me once that a few years ago when a new company took over, there were 4 techs on this team. Of the four, he had been employed here the longest, so the new company appointed him as the new supervisor, based on seniority alone.

Last summer, for two blissful weeks, I worked in a different department. I got along well with everyone there and was enjoying and excelling at my new job. Then, due to some bureaucratic red tape, I got sent right back here to work for the dipshit again.


But there is now a light at the end of the tunnel. I interviewed this week for a new job and just received word today that I got the job. As an added bonus, it starts next week, so he's getting two days notice instead of two weeks.

When I went to the interview, they walked me to a conference room, and just during that brief amount of time, I saw 3 people that I knew from working at Gateway a couple of years ago. I saw a couple more walk through the lobby while I was waiting, and one more applying for the same job that day (there were 16 positions available). It's going to feel like home!


Oh, and Darkwolfe got a job there too. But he actually likes his current boss.

I agree, although I'd add a few things like driving and voting, too.

I always get defensive when someone says their Boss doesn't do shit, but I see what you mean.

As an Owner/Boss, I work all the time, most of it when no one else is in the office. But if this dude works for a company and is a lazy ass, I see the difference.

True, my current boss is pretty cool, but temp jobs just don't have a future. Grab the $$ and run.

I'm being really really good right now and NOT making jokes about your thread title Jazzz.

Hey can you get me on?

Congrats on getting out of that situation. Unfortunately, I work for an IT company ran by someone who cannot even print their own emails (I kid you not) - yet insists they can sell potential customers on the technical aspects of our products.

If it makes you feel better, my boss is a dipshit also. Nothing worse than the son of the owner.
