[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The worst kind of boss, IME, is a married man with a stay at home wife. They have absolutely no understanding of what childcare entails and the idea that some couples split domestic duties, yet they expect their employees (who mostly have working spouses) to adhere to the same face time standards they do (with a non-working spouse). They tend to discount the work people do if, e.g., they go home and put the kids to bed and then log back in for another 2-3 hours, because they don't see it. [/quote]

No. The absolute worst boss are women who are 2nd, 3rd wives of rich men, have grown step-children and no biological kids of their own.  They call themselves "moms" but have not an iota of understanding about what it means.  They do not do domestic chores, they do not do childcare and they are unaware of what it means to have a limited income.

The men boss with SAHMs actually appreciate the women employees a lot more because they know that their own lives would have been messed up if not for their wives. They may be a  bit clueless but they are always amenable if your child is sick and you want leave.  The childless bitches on the other hand are horrendous. [/quote]
NP. Absolute horse shit. I work in an industry in which the majority of men have SAHWs and these men have no respect for women. Regardless of the patronizing little quips they make about the wives being "boss," they perceive their wives as less intelligent than they are and generalize this to all women. They also take child care for granted because it has never been an issue for them and think that women who aren't comfortable yucking it up should just quit and stay home like their wives did.[/quote]

WTF?  What kind of men boss with SAHMs have you had? I call total equine crap on this one. The worst are women with no biological kids of their own.  The best bosses are WOHMs or men with WOHMs or even men or women boss with SN kids.    [/quote]
