As a small business owner (with no employees)! Help! I have the flu and need a day off but can't stop or the business dies! Need an employee so I can take holidays or sick days, but hiring someone would require even more effort!
At least when I shit on company time, I feel like I'm sticking it to myself.
That's a pretty good gig. You get to benefit from shitting on company time while knowing exactly how it impacts the company without any ability to improve it
My boss is currently handling my workload as well as his own while I, his only employee, am doing my last level of apprenticeship classroom training. He's done this for me every time I've gone away to school or for vacation for the past 3 years.
Yesterday I got a call from one of our top customers so I relayed the call to my boss.
He answers the phone.
I say the thing is spewing oil.
He lets out a huge sigh and goes "OOOOHHH man I can't wait for you to come back. I'll get it, thanks for taking the call, bye"
I'm 7 weeks down with 3 to go til I'm back to work and the man is beat.
