You can stay out of your house longer if you don't like your wife, ignore your parents' calls when you are too bored to talk to them, but bosses... that's a tricky one. Whether you like them or not, you have to interact with them, and if you are planning to stick around in your job, you have to keep them happy. We give you the 10 most common types of bosses.

The incapable boss - You literally could not find out anything from her. Not because she isn't willing to share. It's because she doesn't know anything at all and hence nothing she can do to help.

The bross - This is the combination of a bro and a boss. Always wanting to hang out with you for drinks or a smoking session, robbing you of anytime to get any real work done.

The Hormonal boss "2 faced" - one minute she is jovial and happy cheating with a client, the next she come screaming down your neck with instructions.

The questionable boss "Why is she boss again?" - Given how she slacks off in the office, one wonders how she even rise up to be in that position.

Always around boss - This boss is like a ninja. You don't see her but once her name is mentioned, she will appear out of the blue.

Egoistic Boss "You shouldn't be better" - Got a bigger house or car than this boss? Be prepared to "pay" with more workload.

Boss from hell - They need the 5 reports, 15 power points by yesterday.

Slave driver - No medical certificate is powerful enough to deflect her stream of demands.

The skirt-chaser boss - Not sure why but his hires carry the common denominator of young and pretty

Cheapskate boss - tap water instead of water cooler, interns instead of a full-time administrator, no air-con on a rainy day, you get the picture.

Dont forget the following:

- the insecure boss: cannot take it of you have bigger car, prettier wife, better looks, nicer handbag etc..
- the incompetent boss: the ones that tries to get you to answer any questions raised by his own boss... usually will be yelling at you to get into his meeting with his boss so that you can answer for him
- the politician: continuously playing politics with his subordinates and also his peers. Refuses to acknowledge that any of his subordinates are better than him so that they cannot surpass him..
- the joker: anything he says is borderline embarrassing to his staff

10 most annoying employees.

1. Always sick on Monday.
2. Always sick on Friday
3. Always sick after Public Holidays
4. Two hours for a one hour lunchbreak.
5. Always an hour late for work but leaves promptly at 6
6. Talks behind the backs of people paying his salary
7. Thinks the old way is always the best way.
8. Watches the clock like a cat stalking a mouse
9. Makes the same dumb mistake over and over again
10. Thinks updating Facebook on the job is a perk.

There are reasons why someone is a boss while you are a slave.
A boss need not be smarter , better looking or more talented than you.
But chances are he worked harder and got more things done than you.
