…if your boss is an ass?
I don’t just mean they waste your time at work (time they’re paying you for, let’s be serious for a second so at some level, wtf do you care?), but I mean a real ass – doesn’t rewind his video tapes before returning them to Blockbuster, steals pencils from schoolkids kind of ass?

If you’ve yet to see Part 1 of this fantastic interview with Social Media and overall Marketing smartie Mark Schaefer, head on over to the B2B Bliss Blog and take a read and a gander at the video interview with Elizabeth Sosnow. Also, subscribing wouldn’t be worst idea in the world either.
