However, expecting someone to do their job is another matter. Don't expect your boss to be competent, but don't let him screw you because he's not.
He's a bully, which means he's afraid of much in his life. He likes to say "no" to those weaker to him, and say "yessah" to those in power above him. He praises rarely and privately, and he chastises publicly and frequently. Last night was a rare occurrence, and I doubt it will happen again for a while. If he starts trying to screw me, which he did last year, I'm not putting up with it.
The new earphones have arrived. Just based on trying them on in the office, I believe these are going to be very comfortable while sleeping. I'll post a review tomorrow.
Fear is a liar.
