who’s in charge?
My boss have officially gone to his 10 days vacation starting today and I was put in charge of both the labs. That means, within that couple thousand square feet of the both highly restricted labs, I will be the one who’s pulling all the strings there.
I will have the final say of who’s gonna walk and who’s gonna talk. I will have the authority to restrict basically any living organism from entering that area, at the discretion of my mood condition.
Besides that, I’ll also be in full charge of the highly sophisticated doohickeys in the lab worth millions, which some are capable of producing weapons of mass distraction … I mean… destruction. (Eg. the screwdriver, I can use it to open up the hull of a missile launcher… or use it to stab somebody’s head, and that guy’s gonna be as good as a corpse. Muahahahh!)
So I called out for the hordes of engineers’ attention right after our lunch time today, you know, to do that boss-employee relationship improvement kinda shit…
“Guys! I’ll be in charge of the lab for the next 10 days. That means, I’m your boss now… you will have to pay attention to every order I issue from now on … and move your ass to get it done. Are you clear? Alright, now go home & enjoy your weekend early. The lab’s closed for the rest of the day and I don’t want to see your fucking ass here”
…silence…
The guys worked on totally ignoring me.
Damn, it’s hard to be a good boss. Leave me alone.
Remind me to kill my future boss and install you in his position instead. Please don’t forget.
you didn’t put on the “i’m boss” face lar. dat’s y they din take notice.
ladies and gentlemen,

let’s open mahjong table… if customer care from US call… screw them! Just tell them Pre-emptive Chinese New Year Celebration!!!
close the office door…
ladies go make some pot luck!…
yahooO!!!!…
Engineers always obey when told to work but when you tell them to relax it is a different story.
My boss likes to ordain beer-drinking time on Friday afternoons. He even starts pulling out computer screen signal cables if none of us get up from behind our desks to relax a little
Enjoy the power while it lasts; and please teach the engineers to have some fun every now and then.
For the record; I am an engineer myself…
wan - Wan, remember to kill your boss and install me in his position. There you go… hehehh
oliviasy - I can’t. If I put “I’m a boss” face, I’d be an idiot.
william - Dude, I have a feeling that both of us are going to make a good partner running ALL KINDS of businesses… ahakss. *whistle for the callgirls*
andre - Errrmmm… when I was asked to work, I frolic. When I was asked to frolic, I frolicked harder. Ahaksss! (your boss should hire me dude)
but why?! why say what you said?!
shazareene - I don’t know… maybe because I think bears are mean and we should kill all of them for food?
That explained why majority of engineers are square,you should use this phrase ‘Work Hard,Play Hard’to shoo them away from work.
hey presto! now the boss will give the stuffs free treats, free time, free talks for 10 days!
Screwdriver, stab, corpse, hordes,. hmmm. Sound like a Rogue with engineering profession. Bah…too much WOW.
