Good boss vs. bad boss
Aug. 13th, 2008 11:09 amSo I've mentioned that at my 2 week posting here at the hearing aid place, my boss is only here two days out of the week. He calls in regularly and I get little assignments now and then, but largley, I'm on my own up here. But, to be honest, I wouldn't mind at all if he were here.
I thought about it this morning as I was calling people to reschedule appointments. There was a file that I hunted and hunted and hunted for and just couldn't FIND. I called the other office to see if the doctor was there and if he might know where it was, but he'd already left to do some in home appointments. So I decided to hunt for his cell phone number.
And, in the search for his cell phone number, found the file I'd been looking for. On top of my desk. I completely forgot that I'd called the guy yesterday to let him know that his insurance came through.
Now, had I been back at Glenn's office, he'd have been disgusted, rolled his eyes, or even yelled. Karen would have done similar. Regardless of the fact that BOTH of them make the same kind of silly mistakes all of the time.
I was alone in the office today, but had the doctor been here? He'd have just laughed at me. Probably moreso when I told him that I'd lose my head if it weren't attached.
I don't know what my next posting is going to be like, but this one has been a nice reminder that there ARE good bosses out there.
And I am SO GLAD I don't work for that verbally abusive jerk anymore.
Love,
Crystal
