Study Says 2 In 5 Bosses Lie

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the pointy-hair dept.

Freshly Exhumed writes to tell us about a Florida State University study of 700 employees indicating that nearly two of five bosses don't keep their word. The study will be published later this year. From the article: "The abusive boss has been well documented in movies ('Nine to Five'), television (Fox's 'My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss') and even the Internet. 'They say that employees don't leave their job or company, they leave their boss. We wanted to see if this is, in fact, true,' said Wayne Hochwarter, an associate professor of management in FSU's College of Business."

    GERD = (n) gastro-esophageal reflux disease

    GIRD = (v) something you do to your loins before battle ;-)
