3. maybe instead of "how long until...?",
it should be "how many drinks until...?"

All kidding aside, good management realtions with employees is crucial for any company. Best of luck, tommorrow.

4. There's a hierarchy of bosses...

... and one has to know how to manage it. My boss's boss's boss had a boss. After enough of the boss's boss's boss's horseshit, I sent an email to the boss's boss's boss's boss, saying that the boss's boss's boss was a dickhead. My boss's boss was asked why I sent such an email to my boss's boss's boss's boss. My boss's boss said of my boss's boss's boss to my boss's boss's boss's boss, "because he is."

:P

10. Speaking from some experience...
I always make a good "first" impression - then fuck it up within a few minutes.
