Tales of Idiotic Boss (Part 26)

Mr. Baker was in delivering a corporate briefing to a group of students from University Technology of Malawi. As usual he started of with brief introduction and moved on towards the serious part. After 5 minutes, Baker realised that the students were getting sleepy.

At that moment, he pulled out one of his classic joke to "wake" the students....

Mr. Baker: I realised that most of you are maybe a bit sleepy. Let me tell you about one funny experience of mine working in this company.

Students: Ok...

Mr. Baker: 5 years ago, XYZ Plc.'s office was in an old and small complex. One day I saw a box of colourful round shaped objects in front of my door. I was thinking to myself "Who put a box of candies in front of my door? Looks nice.."

Suddenly, before Mr. Baker can continue further..... one hand raised high among the group....

Mr. Vash: Mr. Baker, can we focus on the original presentation aa? You know, the time is limited... just go into the facts la... (Note: it's just only 5 minutes into the presentation)

Everybody else was shocked and there were a sign of awkwardness among the lecturers and students.

Mr. Baker: So now what? Can i continue my joke or what?

Mr. Vash: Ermmm... ahhh.. ehhh.... please continue.. please continue...


MORAL OF THE JOKE
  1. Never ever humiliate your subordinate in front of other guests.
  2. You can send a small note and pass it to the presenter.
  3. Don't be an idiot (must I repeat this for every posts? I think I should. It's Idioticboss.blogspot anyway. ;p)

Mr. Baker: Ermmm... ahhhh.. ehhhh.... Sales performance huh... Ermmm... ahhhh... ehhhh...

Lord Adam: Hey, Baker. Why do you speak like that? Are you ok?

Mr. Baker: Yes, sir. I am perfectly healthy. Maybe I have been working under Mr. Vash for too long... (hahahhahaha)

MORAL OF THE JOKE
  1. Always be prepared for a meeting.

Mr. Baker: Good morning, Mr. Rave. I wish to inform you that Lord Adam wishes to organise a coordination meeting and would like you to join the meeting on 3 April.

Mr. Rave: I will be at India at that time. I won't be able to make it. Anyway, it's XYZ's matter, you all can proceed without me. But at the same time, I think I must be there for the meeting since we are part of XYZ. But then I am not available on 3 April.

Mr. Baker: Ok, I will inform Lord Adam you can't make it.

Mr. Rave: Hmm... But I strongly feel that I must be there. But I am not available on 3 April.

Mr. Baker: Ok, then. Will you be sending any representatives from United Kinetic to the meeting?

Mr. Rave: Well, you know, no point sending others. I make all the decision here. I strongly feel that I must be there. United Kinetic Mining is ME...

Tales of Idiotic Boss (Part 22)

Mr. Muka-masam is the latest sales executive to be transfered from the HQ. Everybody in the office felt that he is a very serious person because he never smiled or greet others in the office.

One day, Mr. Muka-masam was having a discussion with his assistant...

Mr. Muka-masam: Hey Ms. Nej, I noticed that the people in this office is very unfriendly.

Ms. Nej: Why you say like that?

Mr. Muka-masam: When I meet the staff or other executives in this office, they never smile or greet me.

Ms. Nej: Nope, people in this office are very friendly. (in her heart: of course people won't greet at an executive who has the look of a criminal or a rotten bitter-gourd...)

MORAL OF THE JOKE
  • If you are a newbie in the office, don't expect the whole office to "throw you a welcoming party." Go and mix or social around to know the people; even the lower staff.

Mr. Jack was having a bad sore throat.

The Tales of Idiotic Boss Resumes!!!

Welcome again to all the fans of "Tales of Idiotic Boss"... It has been awhile since I last posted in this blog. The main reason was my "idiotic boss" has been assigned to another department and the replacement just entered my office in November 2009. So it took me 3 months to compile some funny idiotic conversation with the new boss, who is as idiotic as the previous one... By the way, I just realised that I still have a few funny idiotic jokes on the previous boss.. Will post them all for your entertainment... Enjoy folks...!
