I like to call it reasoning Bob...Arguing sounds so harsh, especially in the acoustics of a tiled bathroom.

Re: My second boss was a woman. She was an office manager
named Jean Coyne, and being 15 or 16 and a mail desk clerk, I could NEVER win. Just as well - I was an airhead who needed supervision.

My first boss was a woman and I soon found out that I could hold my own in arguing with her. LOL. Great memory.

Re: Bob...omg, what a perfect description..
Sometimes it's clear how certain people become bosses; other times it's a total mystery!

I had one boss who I'm sure if he got hit in the head by a 250 foot long zinger, his head would have broken the ball..

The harder you try, the worse it gets, right?
