Tears From My Heart
Tears roll down my face as I write this, not because I’m sad but because I caught a damn cold and whenever I catch a cold my left eye decides to cry non stop. Beautiful, just lovely.
Let me open my heart to you.
I fucked someone else’s life (life at work that is). I walked in the office on Wednesday, I had a lot of work to catch up on. January is one of the busiest months in here and if you add the fact that I’ll be leaving my job in about 2 weeks things only get harder.
I asked people to have something done by Friday. That something usually takes 5 days, but in my mind was Monday. I saw the expression of panic on their faces, they said it was not possible, that they needed more time, to which I replied that they had plenty of time, all the time they always needed. Nobody said a thing after that, I went back to my desk and resumed my duties (blogging among them).
This morning (Thursday) I walked in and realized that I had the days wrong in my head, then I thought about what I had asked those poor guys the day before.
I sat down, drank my cold milk and was going to tell them about the mix up, however, I didn’t. They looked like they were enjoying their job and who am I to deprive people of their happiness?
What I’ll do is wait till today (Friday) at around 6pm, see how they are progressing. If they are done, I’ll know they’ve wasted company time in the past and fire them (I wouldn’t do such thing, but I would look at them and tell them they are and then tell them they are not, that it was a joke). If they don’t have it done I’ll you look all merciful and kind when I give them an extension, as my friend John suggested yesterday.
I’ll be the always benevolent Leo.








No way would I have you as my boss..lol Sorry but I would have to poison your milk
xx00xx
Mollie and Alfie
Thanks, is nice to know you wanna kill me.
Would I ever .I just wouldn’t have you as my boss..My best buddie.Yes
xxx
You would be one of those bosses I liked, but I think didn’t know why…because you were my boss. I think you’d also be a mystery like you were hiding something, like you had a secret life that no one knew about where you had a popular blog depicting tons of goofy, funny,and sometimes very true scenarios of life. Of course I’d be totally wrong.
Leo, I’m one of them that works best under pressure – if I have a couple of days to do a job, I just play around for 2-3 days .. and the last day I get it done.
As boss myself .. did I want results more or less straight away, but that’s what a kitchen and restaurants are about.
I think your team didn’t mind when they got going … so I would love to have you as my boss. And I can’t work without humor …
Don’t drink the milk, man. I actually am that obnoxious, ass-kissy kind of employee who always finished projects way before deadlines. It probably wouldn’t bother me that much
Mummy works best when she’s busy, but she’d still hate you for making her work so hard (and I’d hate you for taking her away from helping me with my bloggy!!). So I’d be laughing at karma giving you that horrible cold BOL
ps, feel better soon!
You know where we stand on this poll.
I think you are employing a sound boss/slave strategy with this project you gave your team….I betcha they get it done too – without the extention….just in time for a big fat bonus…..

LOL! You’re a real A$$ at work my friend. Sure hope you ‘over’ pay them! LOL Shaking my head. Someone sure should do something to your milk
The Roo Mom
On another note…thanks so much for spreading the word about Tuiren
Poor little thing just played a Houdini and is out and about again. Sure hope she wises up and goes back to her new home asap. Something tells me you have a heart of gold under that hard shell you present at the office. No worries, I won’t let the monkey out of the barrel to your staff – hmmm…wonder if any of them read your blog? :O
Bwhaha you know that behind your back they are cursing you!
… your tags are the best of the whole world – that’s for sure !!!
Good news is that if I was on your staff, damn straight I would have reminded you that it’s Wedneday … bad news is that I’m not on your staff.
Then again, although this may not be the full story, it’s a great story for a post. Cheers to your tags.
love the response in poll so far lol x
I’m still getting my head around the fact that you’re a boss.
Whatever you do, don’t drink the milk!
If they got it done by staying late, and you don’t do something nice for them, well…
You are a bad bad man. And don’t those guys read your blog?
Is this the new Spanish manana attitude? I want it done MANANA!
Would totally poison the milk. Or possibly put Ex-Lax in your brownies.
ohhh bad bad leo
Gee thanks, why don’t you just chuck me naked into the middle of a black inner-city neighborhood, yell the N-word, and drive off? I thought we were FRIENDS! :p
absence? did I just invent this word???
I see you are noting my absence hahaha
I’d love to have a boss with some sense of humor.
I would make certain all the errors of the department were yours. How mean, especially since your leaving in two weeks.
Your next job is not in diplomacy is it?
