Poll: Does your boss know less than you?

I think this might just be an epidemic -- people working for bosses that are less knowledgeable than they are!!

This is a two part:

So do you feel your boss knows less about how to do your job than you do?

And

Do you respect your boss?



For me:

No, my boss does not have a clue what some parts of my job entail, and it's pretty hilarious when he tries to act like he does.

and

No, I have very little if ANY respect for my boss. And yes, it's mostly because I don't think he's nearly as knowledgeable as me! Gosh, that probably sounds arrogant.

My boss is an idiot

I definetly know more than her. Secretaries keep telling me I should run the school!

My boss knows nothing and I have absolutely no respect for him. This is why I'm leaving!

i think this has soooo much to do with Job satisfaction!!! i LOVE my new job, and i really think that This is the reason why.

yes, my boss could run circles around me with her knowledge, and not even blink an eye

and i have Alot of respect for her. Not just for her knowledge, but her professionalism as well. i can honestly say that i never had a boss that i respected before b/c even if they did know more than me, they were just unrespectable in other ways (cattyness, snottiness and just plain unprofessional, basically)

My boss knows NOTHING about what we do and how we do it. She repeats what other people say in meetings so it looks like she understands when she has NO clue!

I really have NO respect for my boss. She is a nasty, control-freak of a woman. She is very mean to people and thinks it is ok to be like that. She thinks she is a queen. Ugggghhh!!

my boss is definitely not as knowledgable as I am in our field. He tries to make himself look good by using these fancy terms, but he uses them wrong. It's so sad!!!
