1.- He holds the elevator door open for people (stands in the way with his/her arm between the door).
2.- Invites consultants over without knowing what to ask them.

...over to you
He can't park any of the company vehicles without some sort of damage being administered ( to be later blamed on an employee)
when your standing at the bar on a friday arvo and the boss walks over with his jeans pulled up to his neck (harry hi pants) and says, hows it hanging dude.
WAIT, WAIT ONE Minute... retarded bosses are NOT a "1st world problem" in fact they're predominantly a 3rd world problem because they're more people in that area, but they're ubiquitous through the classes...
Jeez some people.
Here's another one...
5.- Doesn't like what you've done, but doesn't know what he wants you to do...
Here's an example:
Boss: No that's not what I said I wanted.
Sub: OK, no problem what do I need to change or what would you like me to do?
Boss: That's what I hired you for.
Sub: I don't think routing a high pressure circuit through low pressure solenoids is a good idea, it's not the way it's designed to work.
Boss: I'm tired of arguing with you, figure it out.
Third world problems...
1.- He holds the elevator door open for people (stands in the way with his/her arm between the door).
Have to walk up/down 15 stories to get to my flat coz the elevator hasn't worked in... ever. Have to walk 5kms to work and back.
2.- Invites consultants over without knowing what to ask them.
Invites foreign consultants/partners, spends a week cleaning up the place. Makes us sleep in the street while they are there so they don't see us sleeping under our desks at night.
3.- Insists on having 3 different things act like 1 thing.
Insists we work 3rd shift straight, pays us for 1.
4.- Bakes his own cakes for cake day.
Boss eats cake. We can't afford cake for kids birthday.
/but hey, wasn't trying to derail your thread.
How about this true one from years ago, nightclub glassy. Get to work, boss says "we're too quiet, come back in an hour and a half." You live 35 mins drive away. This happens regularly.
Enter the meeting room with both his trousers pockets inlay hanging out making us fearing he is about to let the full elephant out!
yes... or Fly surfer gets the don't come Monday
When the boss lying on his back with his head under the kitchen sink as the lady owner walks in to spark up a conversation and notices his jatz crackers hanging out the side of his stubbies. I noticed earlier on but kept quiet. Still cracks me up.
that is very cool!
1. about to walk out the door at 6pm, missus is giving me a grilling for being at work so late and he pulls you into his office for a chat that turns out to be totally non work related - like talking about his crap old triumph moto rebuild.
2. Promises all of us new computers (mine is 5 years old), upgrades his own, upgrades all the newbies but now there is no budget for our upgrade.
3. CEO gets in excess of 100 million pay in 2010 however we are constantly going through redundancies while we have been growing at 20% year on year.
