Things I miss while being the boss!

• bitching about my boss: this has to rank the highest. There is nothing like a good bitching session behind your boss's back. It's absolute necessity after a hard day's work and also instant catharsis
• acting like you are working: okay. this a bit dicey. when u are the boss, u don't have to act all the time! You can choose not to work. But it takes the fun away because nobody is bothered.
  
• coming up with excuses: this is the best part of reporting to someone else. he knows u are lying, you know you are lying, everybody else knows u are lying ... but even god agrees if there is pure joy in working, it is in coming up with the most implausible excuses and getting away with it.
• Making fun of your boss's quirks: I would have put this as the first point. But you would have called the bluff then, knowing this is what its all about. I tend to laugh in hiccups sometimes. And I never realised it when I was reporting to someone else! So you see.
  
• The "If I were" feeling: One of the greatest ways to kid yourself is to think how you would have done things had you been the boss. And when you are the boss, it gets fuzzy!
