Dream On
We all have bosses who drive us crazy. They insist on setting unrealistic deadlines and heap ridiculous demands upon us. Things like expecting us to come to work on time, to only take an hour for lunch and limiting our surfing time on the Net. The nerve of them.
What’s the alternative? Well, many people aspire to be their own boss, and expect their work life to be a whole lot easier. Not so fast. It is next to impossible to eliminate bosses in our own little worlds. Consider these bosses who will always tell us what to do, whether we’re self-employed, unemployed or work for someone else:
| Customers/clients Supervisors Supervisor’s supervisors Co-workers Employees Baseball coaches Mothers/Fathers Probation officers Bruce Springsteen (he’s The Boss, get it?) | Children Children’s children Wives/husbands Ex-wives/ex-husbands Policemen/women Personal trainers Lifeguards The President God (he’s kinda the ultimate Boss) |
You simply can’t escape them. Still think it’s panacea to own your own business? Don’t get me started.
