10 hints you might be working for an Aquarius Boss.
It would be unusual, for an Aquarius Boss is of a rare breed. He hates giving orders! It’s too stressful! He is totally uncomfortable and would rather be hitting golf balls in the middle of a desert, than calling anyone in for that little “talk“.
The Aquarius Boss may call you by 10 different names, even though he may have bought you Christmas gifts every year since you’ve started. By career’s end, you may be known affectionately as only “Hey, you”.
He counts each and every one of his employees, his friend. He has real concern for you, in a shifty, diabolical sort of way.
If you’re spending more money than you make, be rest assured Mr. Aquarius will keep an extra careful eye on thee. If he even catches you mentioning you need more money kaboom! Before you can even turn to see him standing behind you, the job search to replace you will move with lightning speed.
The Aquarian Boss will expect a full day’s work. Punch that time clock! Goofing off, too much phone time, or suddenly having to leave early will shake his being to the core, and quite possibly your skull along the way.
Your Aquarian Boss seems rather liberal about your personal views and life. Nothing phases him. He’s seen and heard it all. Spending your vacation at a nudist colony, you say? “Wonderful” will be his reply. Your son would like to wear heels to the company banquet? “How impressive, he’s dressing up for our occasion” he’ll applaud.
The Aquarian Boss loves to watch you put yourself out on the line. Have a new ideas of how things should be done? He‘ll give you the impression of confidence that you‘ll make the right decision, “Go for it”, he’ll shriek. Then, when all comes crashing down, he’ll pat you on the back with a smile and whisper “I didn’t think it would work”.
To expect you to be enormously efficient in multi-tasking is an understatement. Your Aquarius Boss will not understand why just because there was a little police barricade on the fourth floor, your secretary decided to give birth during lunch and a bird flew in from an open window, his 500 page project was not completed on time.
The Aquarian Boss will drastically alter plans almost anytime a job is about to be completed. Scrapping ideas and changing venues is in his primal need. Keep up with the lunacy, luckily he understands you’re a bit “slow”.
Is your Aquarius Boss married? How would you know? The “wife” is not allowed to be any where near his majestic domain. Although, this mystery woman may even call one day and ask so sadly “what kind of company is this anyway?”
