that's NUTZ

does he think that you are a slave rather than an employee. If it was not discussed several days in advance about working on the weekend and you are not an "on call" employee there is absolutely no reason for your boss to call you at home on the weekend other than to tell you that the building burnt down and you don't need to go to work on monday.

I would report him to his supervisor on monday If it were me. That would freek me out.

That was something I loved about the ob unit I worked on, we had an on call anesthesiologist on the unit, and all of us were trained to function as scrub nurse or circulating nurse.

I did many a stat c-section.

okay, end of memory replay

This is funny!
I wouldn't have answered it either. I don't even look at my phones anymore, I have ring tones that tell me who you are. Unless you are really on call as a part of your job there is no reason why the boss should harass you with only a few minutes notice to come in on your time off. Does the boss even know how stupid that message sounds, "I thought you would want to come in on Sunday on no notice, I called you 7 times, um...don't you want to clean my desk.....?"

Well, he owns the company so that wouldn't work

Oh he threw a fit one day when I told him I have cats and dogs! He was like "How do you deal with all that chaos and hair?" He even made comments about me having cat/dog hair on my clothes


He owns a bunch of townhouses and has a strict "no pet policy" no cats, dogs, birds, fish.... nothing

So come the 22nd, the internet and phones will be shut off

Over $3.00!!!!! I'm about to tell him I'll pay the 3 bucks to shut him up.... lord, he's lazy AND cheap!!!!!


ETA: He's on the phone and is ordering dial up internet!
I can't believe this.. With him being an "IT" tech he knows all the online business we do and he's gonna get dial up?

I'm shocked!

OMG!
if I was him, I'd be
, him being in IT. This is his home cable, right? Not your place of business, I hope. I'd feel bad for you, if you had to deal with dial-up. for a better day for you, especially after his phone call yesterday.

Did anyone tell him that the phone/cable/internet company doesn't control the tax rate?
