BOSS

Since you may have forgotten to mark your calendars, we’re hitting you with this info today. Tomorrow, October 16th, is National Boss Day. And while I initially thought, “Shit yeah, a day devoted to Springsteen? About frickin’ time!” I quickly realized that tomorrow is actually about this:

Wikipedia says that Boss Day is a time honored tradition. It dates back to 1958 when Patricia Bays Haroski registered October 16th as a thank you to her loving boss…who also happened to be her father. However, the entry also notes that Boss Day is widely criticized as a Hallmark Holiday, and just another way to kiss ass. And since my boss told us that we should do more blogging today, I guess this is my way of doing both. Happy Boss Day, Bill.
