Thanks for the advice guy's,it is nice to know what other people think..My boss is very , very forgetfull,and very unorganised,he really is a nutty professor..he has a memory that can remember the most incredible facts and figures from a very long time ago,and specifications that most people don't give a rats about..but he simply can't remember the important stuff ie: staff wages,ordering bits and pieces,taxes,specialist tasks that only he can take care of !. I am the only full time employee in the store, the other's are part-time/casual, and I am constantly reminding him to do this or do that,I can live with the fact that If HE forgets to get a welding job done on time or a machined part made on the lathe 2minutes before the customer is due to pick it up,then HE has to explain that to the customer......I will never lie to a customer on his behalf because his memory and time managment skills are totally crap..I have a lot more integrity than to do that...so my underlying PERSONEL problem is his forgetfulness with the wages..perhaps he gets pissed when I ask for them because he gets embarrassed of his lack of memory and managerial skills..I don't know, but all I want every Friday is my wages in my hand with none of the crap to get them. I do like my position there,as I am in complete charge of servicing and repairs and I am left to my own devices,and I totally make sure the bike is ready on time ,every time ..I find it easier to have it ready ,than to make up some lame excuse for why it is not... but DOH! I still want my wages.....cheers...Buddy.
