The Worst Boss Ever
Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 11, 2018 (message contributor)
What if you had a boss that demanded that you check in with him every ten minutes no matter what?
What if he required that even if you were in the middle of other important work in your office?
What if he demanded that whether you were at the office or at home?
What if he required that even if you were trying to spend a few minutes relaxing in the back yard?
What if he demanded that even if you were having a meaningful conversation with a loved one?
What if I told you that you already have that boss: your cell phone.
On average, we check our smartphones 85,000 times a year. That averages out to once every 4.3 minutes.
