Hey fellow anti-workers! As a boss, I have always felt very lucky to lead a great team, but bosses have their share of troubles and anecdotes. Today I want to share some of the things I’ve experienced in my role as a boss and also hear other people’s perspectives and stories
Endless emails: Your inbox feels like a battle every morning. People Issues: Recruiting and retaining employees can be a challenge, and sometimes we need to act like a “psychiatrist” on internal issues. Unreachable: Sometimes, a customer or supplier’s phone number seems to be “missing.” Sleepless nights: Whenever there is a big decision or problem, there will be moments at night when you cannot sleep.
“Company Party”: Our boss's “party” usually involves a video conference in front of the computer, sometimes in pajamas. “A bunch of cat lovers”: We treat our employees like our own pets because we love them so much. “Boss privilege”: Sometimes we can let go of work, but we really can't let go of work. Now it's your turn! If you're the boss, share some of your challenges and jokes. If not, what questions or things do you want to know about your bosses? Let’s explore all aspects of life as a boss and how to find balance and laugh about it all!
