October 16: National Bosses Day

Today, October 16, is National Bosses Day. I’m fortunate to work for Jason Causey, who’s not only one of the very best and brightest in his field (representing consumers like you and me), but he’s also very kind and wants to help people in financial difficulty. Bosses Day gives the staff here at Bordas & Bordas an opportunity to show our appreciation to those we work for and with whom we spend so much of our time.

Some years we provide a nice breakfast for them, which proves a little difficult since usually several are out of the office attending trials, depositions and hearings. Not sure what’s in store for them this year?? What makes a good boss? Fairness, honesty, understanding, approachability, a good communicator? Sounds like the traits you would want to have in your attorney, right? Also, good traits to have as a parent, child, student, neighbor or friend. The origin of Bosses Day dates back to 1958. Patricia Bays Haroski, an employee at State Farm Insurance Company in Illinois, registered it with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Ms. Haroski chose the date because it was her father's birthday. Who was her boss? ....her father. Hope you take time this month to recognize your boss!
