My boss is trying to kill me

Nothing but country music has been emanating from my boss' radio for the past two months forcing me to inquire about the waiting period for handgun permits. If I have to listen to the likes of the Dixie Chicks one more day I am going to shoot myself. My boss always has his radio on and seems to go through musical phases - oldies (40's & 50's), classic rock, pop, etc. I can handle just about anything except country.

Today, while he was out of the office, I changed the station to easy listening because when faced with the choice of listening to Shania Twain or being lulled into a coma, I'm choosing the coma. I think my boss got the message or he got lazy. When he returned to the office, the radio stayed on the easy listening station the rest of the day. Thank God for small favors.

You can write a Shania-like song about this...

"Oh-Uh-Oh, nobody makes me feel the way you doooo...

Man--I feel like a killer!"

(Cue generic pop guitar licks)

That's the worst! Actually, if it were old-school country, I wouldn't mind, but that pop nonesense is hellacious. I had a boss who kkept it on top 40, and that was nearly as bad for me, especially since it meant I was assured of hearing John Mayer every two hours. Sorry if you like him, but that song "Your body is a wonderland..," makes me want to put my ears out.
