The relationship between the boss and the employee is very important to company productivity, but it can easily become complicated. Those who supervise people have to be cautious about what to say, how to act, and how involved they can get in their employees' lives. Managing such a relationship is definitely a precarious balancing act. But bosses can be friendly even without sitting down with the people they supervise and chatting about the weekend. Bored Panda has collected some of the best examples of boss-employee relationships you would probably like to be a part of, and they definitely seem like the kind that can make work bearable. From having the ugliest sweater competition to 'supporting' each other during a weight-loss contest, these examples prove that it's possible to maintain a friendly, yet professional demeanor in the workplace no matter what your position.

Did he pay for it or was it written off on tax as a work investment ?Negotiate with him for the consumption time to be fully paid with no other work loaded unto you. And then slowly indulge in it. Make sure the recovery "sickies" (at least a week in the gym) are part of the package. It will teach him a lesson for next year. While you have to watch out for a bucket of ice water, when entering the office NEXT time... (Cooling off period of your weight loss agreement)

Looks like your boss does not need to lose weight at all. I bet you also do not need to lose weight.

Your boss does not need to lose weight. He looks great. I bet you are the same.

stellermatt & Lios: OSHA is Occupational Safety and Health Administration, they are part of the Department of Labor and they oversee all work related safety conditions. A standing pad is a soft rubber mat for people to stand on to cushion the cement floor and prevent injury and fatigue.

One time my boss was moving stuff around the office to see where a new desk would fit best--but our office is rather small so it was a little difficult to get everything just perfect. I asked my boss if I could play some special music the next time he did that. He said okay and asked what kind. I played the Tetris theme for him.
