The relationship between management and subordinates can hardly be called simple, since the responsibilities of some include monitoring and criticizing the work of others. And this, in turn, often leads to stress and conflict, which ultimately affects the work process and the final result. Some Japanese companies are innovative in their approach to solving this problem. In a special room, dolls are displayed that look like a manual. Each employee can go there, shout or even beat a copy of his boss, thus relieving stress. But this method is quite complicated. However, mankind has long known a simpler and more effective means. This is humor. That's why funny stories and jokes about the boss are so popular. They laughed heartily, relieved tension, it became easier. Dolls are not needed and vocal cords with fists are intact.
Jokes about the boss and employees
There are many ways to motivate for good work subordinates. And this is what one resourceful boss came up with.
The head of the company says to his employees: “This year you worked very well and did a lot, so the profit of our company has increased dramatically. As a reward, everyone will receive a check for $ 5,000. ” The subordinates were delighted, thanked the leader, and they themselves were already mentally planning how they would manage such money. And then the boss says: “If you work with the same zeal next year, I will sign these checks!”
The following joke about the boss and subordinates tells a similar story.
The subordinate addresses the leader: “Since you have repeatedly praised my work, can I count on an increase in salary?” The boss replies: "Due to the fluctuating predisposition to the productive capacity of your position, comparable with industry standards, it would be inappropriate to talk about financial growth." Subordinate: "I did not understand anything." Head: "That's right."
At the interview
A young specialist comes to get a job. The interview is conducted by his alleged boss.
- "Do you smoke?"
“Yes, quite a bit.”
“What about alcoholic drinks?”
“I don’t even touch it.”
The boss smiles and asks: "Probably you spend a lot of time with the girls?"
“No, no more than everyone.”
“So you have no vices?”
“Well, there is one of course.”
- "And which?"
- "I lie".
Strategy and Planning
Jokes about the boss with an unexpected ending are also interesting. One of these we offer the reader.
The chief of subordinates gathered in his office on a very important issue. And the cleaning lady, taking advantage of the lack of people in the room, began cleaning. The door to the chief’s office was open, and she had the opportunity to hear everything that was discussed there. The head addressed the staff: “The company’s management is dissatisfied with how things are going in our division, as there are fewer customers and sales fell. I’m listening to your suggestions on strategy and planning. ” Some suggested for the convenience of customers to purchase new furniture. Others believed that commercial offers on more expensive and high-quality paper would attract more attention. The third seemed that the main strategic direction should be promotions. The cleaner continues to wash the floors and mutters to herself: “Strategy, planning, stocks of some kind, they say, they say. Here in a brothel, where I once worked, if there were fewer clients, then they just changed the girls and the bandera! ”
Jokes about the secretary and the chief
Not quite business relations between leaders and young secretaries have long become a fertile topic for folk humor. There are lots of funny and piquant jokes about these characters. Stories with a rather interesting plot, in our opinion, are presented below.
There was a phone call in the office of the director of a large company. It was his lawyer who insisted on an urgent meeting, because he had two important news. The lawyer asks: “What news should I start?” Bad or terrible? ” “Let's get the bad,” the director says. “Your wife found a million dollar photo!” The director is at a loss: “Wow, bad news! What do you think is terrible in another piece of news? ” Lawyer: “The horror is that you and your secretary are in the photo!”
The manager swears with his secretary: “How can you relate to your duties this way? There’s no one to pick up the phone, in the documents a mess! ” Secretary: “They call you, not me, so answer yourself, the documents are in order, there’s no need to find fault!” And in general, I have too much work, so it's time to raise my salary! ” Director in anger: "I will fire you!" The secretary smiles on his shoulder with a smirk and says: “Well, okay, then my legs will not be here!”.
The next joke about the secretary and the boss cannot be called classic, but it has an original ending.
The boss found his secretary painting the nails, but did not swear and said: "I would very much like to praise you for the work done!" The secretary stared at her manager in disbelief. And he continues to say: "As soon as you deign to do it!".
