    - There are days where I wonder if your boss is fake just because hes such a stereotype of a bad boss. - Walt_Disney Feb 5, 07:43 4
      - he came from a different time (the business is 42yrs old) and his success, as it is, is dimming - tRuMaN Feb 5, 07:49 2
        
        for instance, i have finally persuaded him that we shouldnt be emailing tax returns and supporting documents (in pdf) - tRuMaN Feb 5, 07:51 1
