some bosses

I've had a lot of jobs; many basically forgettable, nothing fantastic. I'm still hoping for that. But, I've had the misfortune of having a few bosses I'd like to forget, permanently. A few of the lowlights include:

- grabbing / "adjusting" themselves in front of you in inappropriate places.
- doesn't know when to stop the "teasing" with the cutting, harsh remarks. (ever not know when your joking goes too far? notice who's not laughing.)
- they come back from lunch wreaking of alcohol.
- they get the rest of the staff against you, plotting against you to fulfill his own selfish twisted agenda.
- will tell lies (aka "stretching the truth") to make himself sound good or to avoid getting himself in deep water.
- "entertaining" clients by taking them to Hooters for lunch. (uh-huh...)
there's a lot more that I could share, but choose not to. you're saying thank you, I'm sure. I know I'm not the only one with these kinds of experiences.

in conclusion... there are some experiences you just don't want to repeat ever again. Some people you wish you'd never have met and care not to remember. There are others that the sweet memory of them will stay with you a lifetime. But in all cases everyone has learned something at one point - be thankful for that. And don't dwell on the past. But look forward to the good! Isaiah 43:14-21 "God says: I will make a way for you." vs. 18-19 don't dwell on the past.
