Default My boss is a jackass.

Yeah, he is.

He sits on his backside in the truck shoving coffee and donuts in his fat face. While we work out in a cold rain, with a stiff Jersey wind cracking like a whip.

I hurt my back, because the guy he hired (his brother) was too hungover to use a jackhammer without puking, so I had to use it...

Well I called out tonite, and the only other guy on our crew (besides me) who can use heavy machinery without killing anyone is in the hospital with Pneumonia.

Looks like fatboy has to drive the shovel tonite.

I bet he fixes the heat in it after this.

Freezing your butt of is always endurable when you spend all your time in the truck, on the phone. Eating quick check subs and farting.

Have fun in the trenches for a few days you jackass.

Anyone else have a fat lazy stooge they have to fake smile at in order to feed your family?

If you think you've got a bad manager, well mine couldn't run a bath or organise a piss up in a brewery

I'm convinced my boss has bipolar one minute hes happy as larry the next hes this psycho cursing the sky spitting taks ranting off to himself. Never forget when the poor tuckie turned up late was her first day as deliverer she doesn't work for us but picks up the orders and she came up to him smiling and all about to appologize when he turned around and told her to F off your to late come back tomorrow now just F off home!!! She turns up next day and he's Hello love how was your day like nothing happen If that aint Bioplar what is. He's a harmless old buggar but mad as a hatter.

I used to have a great boss, she'd let me finish on a Friday at lunch so I could drive the 240 miles home, start at midday on a Monday so I could drive back at a reasonable time (not the 5am starts I had been doing), and although my official work started at 0830 if I'd been running the bar the night before, or even on the other side of it, she'd let me get away with somewhere between 0830 - 0930. I'd also get plenty of time off for sport and study.

I used to cover for her, it wasn't all one-way.

My work was always done on time and to a high standard, I just had a messy desk.

Can't say anything behalf of AVGWarhawk but I don't know answer and it would be nice to know (not that I'm likely to be in risk of hurting my back in same way, I hope).

They involve things you are not supposed to do, the most common is trying to force it, the second is trying to jank it free when you get the point stuck(which often goes with trying to force it).
In both cases its down to the person using it not the boss...unless of course the person using the tool doesn't know how to use it in which case they shouldn't be on the job and that would be the fault of the boss.

Even if you use the machine properly, you can still get a sore back and other muscles.

When I worked in Denmark in 1989 I was asked to beat a fault floor put up the floor was approximately 1500 square metres. Then think to stand with a jackhammer from early morning to late evening. After a few weeks you feel it in your back and his arms, etc.
