[QUOTE="MuM_of_OCD_kiddo, post: 464325, member: 12241"] Not only would I grab him by the ears and give him a piece of my mind - if you can afford quitting without a replacement job lines up - I would totally renegotiate my salary in order to continue taking his *(&_&^*. "Not only do I squeeze x amount of work into x amount of hours, for which you would pay someone else $x more, as they would need so and so many hours more to keep up with your stuff not including the extras I end up doing for you that were not even included in our original agreement.

I am sorry - if I end up doing secretary work plus [whatever you do as his book keeper], then you need to pay me accordingly.
