Happy Boss’s Day
By
Some people have wondered if Hallmark invented Boss’s Day to increase card sales. On the contrary, this holiday was first registered in 1958 by Patricia Bays Haroski, who chose to honor her boss (her own father) on October 16th, since that was his birthday. Four years later in 1962, Illinois Governor Otto Kerner officially proclaimed 10/16 as Boss’ Day. Hallmark did not start selling “Boss Day” sentiments until 1979.
Whether you manage many or just one, enjoy these quotes:
There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else. (Sam Walton)
The person who knows HOW will always have a job. The person who knows WHY will always be his boss.
(Alanis Morissette)
More power than all the success slogans ever penned by human hand is the realization for every man that he has but one boss. That boss is the man – he – himself. (Gabriel Heatter)
