I was hand­ing out Laura Fisher’s “Bet­ter With­out Bosses” stick­ers yes­ter­day when some­body pointed out that it was Boss’s Day some­time soon.

That would be today.

I don’t have a boss. Most of the peo­ple I work with don’t have bosses. We don’t even feel the need to say we’re “our own bosses” with­out being ironic.

It is not your boss’s fault she is your boss. The role is not the per­son. I’m tempted to appro­pri­ate this thing from the use­less Cham­ber of Com­merce and make today the day we relieve bosses of their oner­ous and bur­den­some task of pro­ject­ing an unwar­ranted air of author­ity.

They are still, after all, chained to that rock.
