Staff vs Boss

When I take a long time to finish,
I am slow.
When my boss takes a long time,
He is thorough.

When I don't do it,
I am lazy.
When my boss does not do it,
He is busy.

When I do something without being told,
I am trying to be smart.
When my boss does the same,
He takes the initiative.

When I please my boss,
I am apple polishing.
When my boss pleases his boss,
He is cooperating.

When I make a mistake,
I'm an idiot.
When my boss makes a mistake,
He's only human.

When I am out of the office,
I am wondering around.
When my boss is out of the office,
He's on business.

When I am on a day off sick,
I am always sick.
When my boss is a day off sick,
He must be very ill.

When I apply for leave,
I must be going for an interview.
When my boss applies for leave,
It's because he's overworked.

When I do well,
My boss never remembers.
When I do wrong,
He never forgets.
