You Look Like an Outstanding Young Man
Well I arrived today at 9:00AM. Since I got a haircut last night, I get to listen to my bosses give me fake compliments on it all day. Boss #2 noticed first, said it looks great and that I look like an outstanding young man, then proceeded to call me Captain Stubing (The captain of The Love Boat). This is the first of many times today he'll crack the same joke. He certainly already killed it yesterday.
Why?
Well I went on a cruise, and returned about a week ago, I went to Mexico, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Haiti. So now I have this new great nickname.
Boss saw my hair and said the same thing, "You look like an outstanding young man" and then proceeded to walk away.
Business As Usual.

Have You Seen This Set?
About four months ago, my boss dropped off a set for me to add onto the website. I added it, and put it back on the shelf for restocking. The Girl Up Front, just received an order for one. Since Boss put it back, naturally nobody knows where it is.
The Girl Up Front asks Boss, Where is this set? and of course, he responds with ask Him it's on His desk. The Girl Up Front comes back and asks where is this set? of course I respond with I have no idea Boss put that back months ago. The Girl Up Front goes back to boss and repeats what I had said.
Boss expects me to have dimensions of the set, the packaging, the color of the cardboard. I have no idea about the answer to any of these so I just respond with it's in a cardboard package to get him to back off a little bit.
He begins his search. After five minutes he goes back to the Girl Up Front and says my name about ten times, probably saying how I lost it, because after all, my boss has never done anything wrong in his life.
This is the way it is here, if he messes up, he didn't mess up, you did. Always.
