Weird Bosses
I am sure we all have had our share of pathetic bosses. Share some incident or trait of your boss that is funny or not very likeable.
I had a boss who was a total feku. His lies were initially funny but it got pathetic after sometime when it combined with his ineptness and formed a lethal combination for the team. The guy would lie through his teeth about having patents, having invented or lived in USA. And he was someone who always compared with others and tried to show he is superior. Like if during a convo someone said that his/her sibling is so and so, he would go "Maloom hai, mera bhai CTO hai is/us company ka" (hard to verify before Linkedin era). If someone said my kid got a praise in school, he will go "Mera beta won some national competition".

I cant understand how people can make jokes about spouse at work. Self derogatory humor works but self family derogatory one is a no-no. My boss wouldnt talk about his wife at all bcoz he was busy womanising. His wife was a highly qualified professional stuck with tjis MC.

Re: Weird Bosses
Many desi people are like that.. they not only lie, but compare each and every thing.
A real life example: Gult colleague: I heard that your kid's day care is substandard, it's for families with low salaries. Me: So, 950 bucks a month in a mid-tier city is affordable for low income folks? And you are from the family of Hyderabad Nawabs? Experience something yourself or get an opinion from a few folks at least instead of learning everything from a desi guru. |
