If your boss told you......

If your boss walked into your office and said

"you walk around the office like you deserve to be here"

how would you take that?

Re: If your boss told you......

I wouldn't take it. I would sit down and discuss what he/she means.

Bad boss..bad communication.

Re: If your boss told you......

I would probably be less offended then what my boss said this morning, lol. "Emily, you live in the clouds."

He swears it is meant to mean "angelic" but I know it means I am a ditz. Whatever. Chat Icon

I'd be concerned.



me too

i'd ask what they mean by that--since obviously if THEY employed you--then you DO deserve to be there. so what is that supposed to mean...are they warning you of something coming? very weird

Re: If your boss told you......

Depends on the speaker. If my boss said it I would freak because he doesn't have an ounce of sarcasm in his body.

If my DH's boss/partner said it, he wouldn't think twice because they joke and pal around all the time like that.

Re: If your boss told you......

How close are you to your boss?

If it were mine, I would say, "I'm sorry? I do not understand what you mean."

Do you think he has a reason to ask that?
