Being a boss

I think it is always difficult being a boss. Seemingly you have to put in long hours just because you have soo much to do. And also you have so much power to do something and everyone comes to you for a disposal or decision.

My boss talked me about something i think is quite funny recently. She chatted with me about putting in a rigid schedule so she would know when are people coming in to work. And at the same time claimed that she has been a very flexible person in terms of the work timing.

I almost rolled my eye ball because I think it was really shotting blanks. I didnt thnk there was any issues about her concerns on schedules and PUNCTUALITY. i think it was more of her being too remote from the teams. Really a sense of false impression. Making it looked bad on us/me .

But i guess this is totally inevitable. Somehow sometime somewhere we are bound to get such bloopers. Thats why being a boss is difficult in its way. Being boss you try to talk about things that is under your jusrisdiction but yet somethng that you are not expert in. Very dangerous and not something easy to manage all the time. You may get lucky once with your people but not all the time.

Oh well I am tired. Guess i will have to give it my best to stay ok at work till more man power comes back. For now i am just taking it one thing at one time and by the way ... my boss loves it when we take it one thing at one time. And YET she wants things done. gosh... it sucks.
