Is your boss a compassionate person or aggressively pro-bottom-line? |
|
Just curious. I keep hearing how more and more supervisors and such are pro-bottom-line, treating human compassion as much of a commodity as anything else they wish to exploit...

My current potential s/o is kinda domineering too. O8) It's weird, but I'll tolerate it... For a few good reasons. O8)

He's a Republican who voted for Kerry this year because he strongly disagrees with the direction the GOP has taken. He's always taking the side of his employees against both customers (grocery store) and corporate management. He's always fair, always cheerful, always ready to pitch in, roll up his sleeves and work hard.
He's also kinda hot and I've been known to have nasty dreams about him, a fact that amuses my hubby to no end. ~blush~

My boss treats his employees very well. And is understanding of unique situations as well, and let me voluntarily cut my pay and hours by 20% when I decided I just couldn't spend so much of my time at a computer, for my own happiness. Also a staunch Republican. On the two or three occassions I have heard his political views, they seem very contradictory to the office environment. He empowers workers at the workplace, but not at the voting booth.

8. My boss is really like a little kid |
|
He worries about the bottom line maybe once in a while, when he's decided he wants to go out and buy something. He lets me take off work for family or church reasons, and donates his time, money, and even work for kids and those less fortunate. He has his faults-he gets mad if he thinks you aren't sufficiently appreciative for his largess in giving you your time off. He hates to work and tends to sluff off his tasks on everyone else. Basically he leaves me alone to run the office, and I like that. He'd love to be a rich capitalist, but he doesn't have that focus on the bottom line to do that. So we putter along, and are basically mostly content.
