Poll: What type of person is your manager?

[tim0thy]

According to an MSN article, Sandra Crowe lists the 9 nastiest co-workers?

They are the following:

• rambling hyenas
  sarcastic bees
  know-it-all owls
  complaining lizards
  dumbfounded donkeys
  prickly porcupines
  over-committing/under-delivering snakes
  unresponsive snails
  hostile apes

Which one is your manager?

 

[tim0thy]

dammit, how do i create a poll! hehe

 

[BChild]

that's a tough call.....i would say my manager is a hybrid of rambling hyena and dumbfounded donkey.

 

[Semper Fi]

Don't know we just got our new manager yesterday.
He seems to be none of the above, only time will tell.

 

[Xzaver]

An all around nice guy, who lives at home , and is god loving , he's also the guy that has the unplesant action of terminating me for trying to help were I shouldn't have.

~X~

 

[gittyup]

Very hands off.

 

[tim0thy]

mine is somewhere between nice guy and dumbfounded donkeys

 

[kru]

over-committing/under-delivering snakes

but a nice one

 

[Shmorq]

unresponsive snails
Doesn't do anything all day long.

Hmmmm.... that's a tough one.

My boss is pretty laid back and pretty awesome - if we need time off usually there's no problem. She spends a lot of time on the computer reading the millions of emails she gets all the time. I think the phrase most often used by her is "Well, I guess I should get back to work."

But we get to listen to a lot of different types of music, and usually she has an awesome sense of humor. And best of all - she loves chocolate. People know that and usually get her some when they are late for fittings or whatever - so then we get to eat it

So I guess she would be a "Sarcastic (in a good way) snail"

 

[Vikaden]

the type that sucks big donkey balls

 

[Windogg]

None of the above. My boss is a really nice guy that gives me a lot of latitude to do my job without interference.

 

[Ausm]

I don't see total jerkoff....

well...since i am my own manager..i would say hostile ape

 

[tim0thy]

<< well...since i am my own manager..i would say hostile ape >>



hahaha,... quoted from the article...

What?s the most difficult type?
I get the most complaints about the hostile apes. They?re the volatile, aggressive ones who destabilize people the most.

<< None of the above. My boss is a really nice guy that gives me a lot of latitude to do my job without interference. >>

me too, until i guess i started handling everything and he doesn't have to do shiet... and everyone sees that. so lately, he tries to micromanage me, which pisses me off... A LOT... kinda like... ok, now &quot;type n-f-s--l-i-n-k--&quot; yea yea, I KNOW the command damn it!

 

[Delusion2001]

i like my manager

 

[CvAgent]

Which One?
I have 8 supervisors, 3 managers and 1 director?

Suffice it to say I work for a fairly large company, oh yeah this is only my dept.

The ones i deal with most of the time(the 3 or 4 of them) are none of the above, they are fair and easy to get along with, as long as you fix the bizarre problems that the other techs cause
(I dont have a job description anymore
