Today, my boss bitched me out for doing some random web browsing while waiting for some documents I needed to arrive, then went back to his desk and went on Facebook, thinking I couldn't see. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boss yelled at me for having Facebook open at work. That's fine, I closed it and continued on with my work. In a meeting later on I could see the reflection of my boss's laptop screen in a mirror behind her desk. For two hours, I watched her scroll through her Facebook feed. FML
Today, my boss yelled at me for visiting Facebook on my work computer. He says that since I can't be trusted, I'll be supervised from now on. I was uploading pictures to the company's Facebook page, which I have to do once a week as part of my job. FML
Today, I was caught going on Facebook at work. I was called into my boss's office to be reprimanded, and while he was lecturing me on the importance of staying focussed and the misuse of company property, his computer beeped. It was his Facebook chat notifying him of a new message. FML
Today, my boss called me while I was working from home to bitch me out over being away from my computer for 49 minutes, when my lunch break is only 45 minutes, thus wasting another 13 minutes. My boss is known for spending hours online gaming from home during work hours. FML
Today, my boss told me I can't use the computer for entertainment. This coming from the same person who spends hours at a time every day on Facebook and other similar websites. I'm also not allowed to sit down while using the computer, which I use about half of the day. FML
Today, a random customer at work admonished my coworker for being on her phone. During our lunch break. As he walked away, my coworker muttered, "What the fuck is his problem?" I nodded in agreement. He heard her and saw me nodding. As did our boss. Time to get written up. FML
Today, I was on a conference call and digital meeting at work when I got bored and started surfing the Internet. Little did I know that my desktop was being shared. My boss was on the call and saw everything. FML
Today, my boss fired me for "fooling around" on my phone. I was looking for supplies for a surprise party we are throwing him for his birthday, and I didn't want to do it on my work computer because he has access to our history. Also, this happened during my lunch break. FML
Today, I was working on entering a lot of information in the system. When I'd finished, I closed the screen to move on to the next steps, my boss came by to see how I was doing, just in time to see me looking at a now-blank screen. I'm convinced that my boss thinks I closed a screen that wasn't work related. FML
Today, I got fired from the job I'd had for eleven years for going onto Facebook while on the clock. When I got home, I saw that my boss had updated his status, from work, to "Finally fired that bitch." FML

Depends on who OP's boss is. If he owns the company/runs it and keeps his bosses happy, he can do whatever he wants. It all depends. It sucks, but that's why you should want to get promoted.

It seems as if someone doesn't lead by example...

Or send him a message from a fake profile he don't recognize asking him about what he's looking at, like, "I see it's your mom's birthday. So did you send her flowers?" Totally creep him out.

People still play Farmville?

Seems like your boss needs to practice what he preaches.

Maybe i like puns a bit too much, but imagine if OP was an assistant pastor and his boss was the main pastor?
Tthug 34
Not necessarily. What if his boss owns the company? Then he can do whatever he wants. And yes, because he is paying you, you can stay the hell off FarmVille, which you shouldn't be doing at work anyways, even if you're waiting.

Call him out on it. That's some major bullshit. Jackass.
Flowtastic 16
Nothing really the OP could do if he does call him out on it. He needs to see higher ups instead. Though, regardless what his boss is doing, it's still a YDI for screwing around while on the clock, IMHO.

Well what were they suppose to do ? Sit staring at the screen with a blank look on their face? Either way they are gonna get in trouble.

There are benefits of being the boss.

Do what I say not what I do, common leadership fail.

Considering he's the boss he can do whatever he wants. Op is getting paid for his time- the boss is paying himself.
notabeachbabe 13
Assuming that he is the owner of the company. Not all bosses pay themselves. They still get paid by the owner of the company therefore he isn't doing what he is being paid to do. You can run a department but that doesn't mean you pay the workers.
