I've always wondered if this song was composed post-Twitter. My guess it that this song came first. But Uncle Cracker sure as hell was prophetic, wasn't he?
If Twitter had a theme song, this would be it! Continue reading →

Thinking about how utterly pathetic and invisible my blog has been since its inception, I felt a certain connection to a boy band I was never a fan of -- yeah, 98 Degrees, baby! Although, I must say that this song, which I am about to use is a personal favorite back in the days.
The original lyrics are still there, with the *new* or rather *inspired* lyrics enclosed in very shy parentheses.

I pay for webhosting, internet connection and electricity (okay, not really, it's actually my husband who does..but that's irrelevant..). I waste hours upon hours poring over content.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR BOSS
When you take a long time, you're slow,
When your boss takes a long time, he's careful.
When you don't do it, you're lazy.
When your boss doesn't do it, he's too busy
When you make a mistake, you're an idiot.
When your boss makes a mistake, he's only human.
When doing something without being told, you're overstepping your authority.
When your boss does the same thing, that's initiative.
When you take a stand, you're being bull-headed.
When your boss does it, he's being firm.
When you overlooked a rule of etiquette, you're being rude.
When your boss skips a few rules, he's being original
When you please your boss, you're apple-polishing.
When your boss pleases his boss, he's being supportive.
When you're out of the office, you're wandering around.
When your boss is out of the office, he's on business.
When you're on a day off sick, you're always sick.
When your boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill.
When you apply for leave, you must be going for an interview.
When your boss applies for leave, it's because he's overworked.
