No complaints. I've worked with British, Dutch, Italian,
Australian, South African, Irish, German and American bosses and
they've been pretty good except for the Yank, but he was on his way
to a nervous breakdown by the time I came aboard anyway. The Dutch
and Australians cut the crap and get to the point, which is the way
I like working, the British, Germans and South Africans are
considerate and the Italians and Irish have a great sense of
humour. With the exception of the American, I've wound up all my
roles with those bosses on good terms. I still keep in touch with
most of them, and they're still happy to provide advice and help
when I need it.
I find it a bit difficult to call a guy stingy when he's shelled
out for lobster dinner and an iPod Shuffle for each staff member
and their spouses, along with a case of Bollinger plus two other
cases of decent wines in one evening.
