@morbiuswilters said:Ha ha ha!  I love your boss. From the sound of it, your boss owns the company and is deeply in debt and working her ass off to try to make the company work.  She's obviously put herself much more on the line than you and your two coworkers combined.  For you to openly deride and question the decisions she has made in an endeavor that she is far, far more invested in than you is simply moronic and immature.  It's one thing to simply provide your opinion if it seems warranted, but you clearly don't even have the interests of the company at heart since you aren't concerned with productivity.  Some people have pointed out that the tone is a bit rude and unprofessional and I agree that replying to a subordinate that way will stress the relationship.  However, if an employee asked a question like that of me I would probably be looking to ditch the little fucker as soon as possible and venting some steam in an email is a good way to drop a hint.  This definitely sounds like a company owner who already feels pretty shitty that he had to make these cuts in the first place.
