Absent boss leaves staff to handle everything
Staff in a small office say their boss is rarely present yet expects them to manage clients, deadlines and emergencies on her behalf.
Dear Annie: I work in a small office where our boss is almost never there. She comes in late, leaves early, works from home whenever she feels like it and is often “unavailable” when problems come up. Meanwhile, the rest of us are expected to answer clients, meet deadlines, handle emergencies and keep everything running.
