You're lucky to even get this much.

I never trusted Martha Stewart.

The Talk of the Nation program about bad bosses was interesting, but one thing bothered me. Everyone talked about how a good boss is one that is nice and "human" and not a slave driver etc... While this is obviously true, I wonder why no one mentioned what would seem to me to be the most important aspect of a good boss. That is a boss that helps you be your best, and helps you to learn and gives opportunities to achieve excellency. Granted, being a bastish slave driver is not going to help most people in that respect, but a boss that is only nice and not so strict seems worthless to me if she doesn't offer any value to the employee. In fact, I would rather have a boss that acts like a jerk when it is needed to make me better.

I went to drawing group tonight, but didn't do so well as I found it difficult to keep my mind off of the project that is due Monday and I am not even half done with. Of course I went back to work after drawing, but it is not enough to keep me out of the office tomorrow and Sunday, and probably straight through till Monday... so don't expect much on the bastish net.
