Good (Wednesday) Mornin' DU!

[matcom]

i'm expecting another BULLSHIT SHITTY day at work (like yesterday). The boss is a f*cking LOON and its IT's week to get shit on (again) x(

he just can't understand why you ALL wouldn't RUSH RIGHT OUT to a website that is: unsecure, contains NO company name or information, is a ONE PAGE application and give all your personal financial information including your SSN#! WHY oh WHY are you ALL not flocking to this "web site"? oh, that's right. ITS MY FAULT! :eyes:

anyway, i suppose i still have a job so it could be worse. sent him a harsh email last night (whilst drunk) and he wrote back this morning so he didn't fire me (yet).

anyway, even though i am dreading going into work, i want ALL OF YOU to have a FANTASTIC DAY!

:hi:

*sigh* wish me luck

3. Good morning!

Yeah, your boss doesn't seem to understand things when you explain it. Have you tried visuals? :shrug: Good luck.

My suggestion: buy him motorcycle magazines and distract him. :7

4. LOL visuals

that is ALL this web site is! on big visual. no info. none. not a phone number in sight. no company name. its a number. A FRIGGEN NUMBER!

no privacy policy on how we will use your info
no contact information
no license (we are a mortgage company)
no equal housing logo (required by law)
no state
no nothing
100% unethical


:argh:

6. Yeah, it was a little...ummm...skimpy on details!

Show him Lending Tree's site...that's a good one for security. Of course, they probably paid some big time outfit a gazillion bucks to produce theirs...but...hey...

5. Good morning! And here's hoping that things will be better for you today.

Good luck with the boss and your work day!

7. Morning Matcom

Like you, I am in for another shitty shift at work (5pm to 10pm). Somehow, knowing that somebody else is going through a living hell at work makes me feel just a little bit better.

Do you sell mortgages or just do the website?

One of my (3) jobs is selling mortgages. Health insurance is another and working nights at the credit department call center of a catalogue gift company is the other (cash flow because my businesses are just starting out)

Why are there sooooo many dickheads in supervisory/ownership positions? It's one of the great mysteries of the universe I guess.

9. i'm the webmaster

a one man show hosting, developing, marketing, maintaining <14> web sites currently. EVERYTHING with this idiot is reactionary. it ALL has to be done YESTERDAY.

the guy doesn't know SHITE about the web but will tell you he knows EVERYTHING!

and because he is a billionair, i'm supposed to automatically kiss his ass! like i respect ANYONE making that kind of money off of other people. he has 60 loan officers working 'for him' and they each give up 30% of ALL commissions....TO HIM!

this guy doesn't even show UP to the office until 3:00 pm most days. :eyes:

last night he emailed me at 8:00 pm asking if we could meet (LAST NIGHT).

ummm hello Einstein, ITS 8:00 AT NIGHT! no, i am currently NOT at my desk! I AM HOME JERK!

:eyes:

10. GAWD!

I hope you're not talking about one of my counterparts!

This guy fits the mold of some of the multi-millionaire types I have worked for. A few observations that might make you feel better.

First, be very amused by the people who suck up to your boss in hoping he will drop a few crumbs off of the table. There is this mentality out there that seems to believe that by hanging around a rich person that the person will somehow have pity on you and make you rich also.

Second, be amused by the lottery winner mentality. It goes something like this:

A dumbass renting a trailer wins a multi-million dollar lottery. As required by lottery laws, they hold a press conference. The winner who couldn't have correctly spelled "VW" before he won the lottery is now treated with respect for his "wisdom". Moral of the story?

Money does not equal intelligence.

Hope you are amused.

11. lol mildly

not to mention the $500 (before tax) xmas bonus he gave me this year. WOW such gratitude! now, i suppose its better than nothing but read the following:

get this. being in IT, i have access to all the figures.

this guy. ONE MAN. makes over $400k a MONTH! and he does NOTHING except bitch and moan that the 100 changes he wants to all of these sites can't be done in one day :eyes:

8. Morning
