Holiday Sharing - Turkey Bosses

By Michelle Malay Carter on November 22, 2007 

Happy Thanksgiving to those in the US!

I shared my turkey boss story already.  Have you every worked for a turkey of a boss?  Do tell.

For those are unfamiliar with American slang, a turkey can be defined as:  a joker; a person who does something thoughtless or annoying.
