ARE
YA KIDDING?? This might have been a title in a
Boffo comic trip, maybe: "Shy Little Brained People
in the Land of Business".
Ok,
maybe I am being too harsh. Maybe you have determined
that there are no suitable, eligible males on the planet
who are worthy of your affections other than your boss.
Maybe
you have never heard of the theories which indicate that
people with low self-esteem gravitate to people in power
and unequal, unhappy relationships.
Maybe you haven't heard of the common sense adage
of "not dipping your pen in company ink" or
are unable to relate that to "not doing your boss".
Yes, you are right, "crazy" is good.
I cannot tell you how many times I fantasize each day
about my co-workers, my ex-girlfriend, my current interest,
and my right hand.
But self-restraint is the
key here. I do not have to act on my craziness
at work. I have the ability to compartmentalize
my craziness, and even pretend to concentrate on my
work every now-and-then. And you know what, SO
DO YOU!
One thing you can do when you feel you're being driven
crazy, is to turn your computer off in the middle of
your work. That should take your mind off your
boss. Or maybe make a phone call to your family.
That always makes ME so crazy I forget about any other
entanglements I can get into.
Do
Not Get Involved with Your Boss
Ok, listen up, girlfriend. It is NOT a good thing
to
get
involved with your boss. There are so many bad things
that I can think of just off the bat, that it's making
me dizzy. If the relationship goes south, what are
you going to do? If your boss doesn't think of you
in that special way & you make your move, what are
you going to do? Do you want to spend eight hours
of every day with someone you're trying to develop a relationship
with?
Do
you think it's easy to have a working relationship AND
a friendship relationship with someone? What will
you do when you want time to yourself?
There are TONS of guys out there who are not your boss.
It's true. I'm sure of it. They're always
in my way when I'm trying to meet babes. Sometimes
they're even trying to dance with my current squeeze.
I know that they're out there looking for the shy women
who will treat them right. I don't know about
you, but when it's quitting time at work, I feel energized,
I wake up, I get out and hit the softball field, or
dance club, or whatever. But I don't bring my
boss along because he's married, he's not my type or
gender desire, and MOST OF ALL,
he's
my BOSS! |
