The things some bosses do

the things some bosses do -:

i worked for Honeywell Shield, at the time just got into using a an Amstrad lam Shell PC, my unbeknown to me MD gets wind of my computer hobby interests and i get i get a 'royal summons', i.e. be in the office for 9am sharp next day.

can i say i was not highly appreciative - as that week i was on nights covering the regular night mans holiday.

so i duly arrive expecting a row, rollicking over some ****-up or other or maybe the sack, but astonished i get given a book on 'Introduction to COBOL Programming', and asked to work out a program for the accounts dept, as they had obtained a compute from one of the clients who could not pay - yer right.

after 27 years trading - i'm still trying to write it in my spare time .
