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.

Re: If your boss told you......
I'd be very offending. And I'd say something like- Well DON'T I deserve to be here???
I'd feel like he meant I didn't deserve to be in my job- and that is cr@p!!

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

Ditto. I wouldn't take this as a positive statement in any way.

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?
