The study actually showed that people who worked for Saab had more heart attacks, but was misinterpreted to mean "people who worked for SOBs" -- hence, "bad bosses". In related news, people with Volvos had 40% fewer heart attacks.
When are the Swedes going to study hair loss? Every time my boss comes up with something stupid, I feel a few more hair follicles dying. It seems to have hit Wally too. It was never a problem for me when I had good bosses. :(
At one time, I had a PHB-ette that was such a whack job loon, there were a lot of days I would have just assume have a heart attack and not have to be around her and her lunacy.
