Mid Boss

I'm the Mid Boss. That's someone who's kinda-in-charge-but-not-really. We get sh*t piled on us by The Boss, and then we try to pass some of the sh*t down to the Peons, but unfortunately, as the Peons have little to lose, we find that, inevitably, the sh*t sticks to us. That's us, the Mid Bosses of this world.

Still, there are worst places to be Mid Boss-ing. I'm back in Holland/The Netherlands, and I'm now in charge. I report directly to The Boss.

Being a Mid Boss doesn't only mean reporting to The Boss. There's also The Boss At Job 2. And TBAJ3. They all want a piece of your ass to kick, and you have no choice but to oblige. Or quit. Which, in my circumstances, is not an acceptable option.

Still, there are perks. This Mid Boss is flying off to Malaysia and Singapore for a 1 week stint of business (with a serious dose of pleasure, hopefully), starting Friday!
