Go the extra mile. It makes your boss look like an incompetent slacker.
Billy Strayhorn wrote Multicolored Blue. Billy to me is the boss of the arrangers.
You are the only boss you have. And I want you to be the most demanding boss that you can be. If you really want to make a success of this business, then you must put yourself on a schedule.
The Austrian theory of subjective value teaches us that there are many ways to incentivize or motivate or induce someone to commit an action for you: you can promise sexual favors, promise to pay money, hire someone, and so on. Also, there is no reason to think that both the boss and his underling cannot both be 100% responsible: in the law this is called joint and several liability.
Your parents ask you to follow the standard path: School, job, security. Is this really the best way? I don't think so - be your own boss!
You see, the Mets are losers, just like nearly everybody else in life. This is the team for the cab driver who gets held up and the guy who loses out on a promotion because he didn't maneuver himself to lunch with the boss enough. It is the team for every guy who has to get out of bed in the morning and go to work for short money on a job he does not like. The Yankees? Who does well enough to root for them, Laurence Rockefeller?
I am no big shot. I am not anybody's boss. I want to be everybody's servant.

Both Neil and I had done solo projects where we were the boss and I just thought that if he was willing to get into it, it would really be a good experience for him.
No man is the boss of his own house, but he can make up for it, he thinks, by making a dog play dead.
Can you not see that it is the INDUSTRIAL SYSTEM and not the boss which must be changed?.
We were a fast-growing company, and I was a demanding boss.
The worst mistake a boss can make is not to say 'well done'.
I remember Robin [Williams] walked up to me after the last take and said, "Thanks boss! We nailed it!" That will probably be one of the best moments of my life.
I don't mind The Boss. I think he's an honest guy. I have some of his records, not all of them. I've met a couple of the E-Street guys, and they seem really cool.
Your own mental attitude is your real boss.
My happiness isn't connected to my husband's or my boss's or my children's behavior. You have control over your own actions, your own well-being.
Ever notice how seldom we lose control when frustrated by our boss, but how often we do when annoyed by friends or family?
