My boss is smart (mech eng from GT) and a good guy. The problem is he's been with a large company for too long. He's too used to being shot down by HR when an employee is a problem. He also tries to please everyone. Another problem, and really the big problem, is that he likes to tell stories. A lot of stories. He can, and usually does, spend a whole day bothering other employees that are trying to work.
He's gotten better at disciplining employees that need it and we've now got an HR dept that's not affraid to fire someone. I've talked to him about the story telling and he admits it's a problem and that his dad did the same thing, but he still does it.
With that said, I don't know if I want someone else especially sense the someone else would be me. I'm know I'm not a good people person. Don't get me wrong, I like almost everyone I work with and I can deal with the one's I don't, but I'm very blunt when it comes to criticism and I guess that comes off a arrogant or condesending.
