Chatterbox: Boss Can’t Make Decision

Chatterbox: My immediate supervisor is a dream and a blessing to work with/for. She is honest, fun-loving, hard-working, understanding and treats her empoyees as adults. Our boss, however, is a different story. He is the director of the department and has a difficult time making a decision…any decision. Things have to be discussed over and over and over again. And then thought about for a couple of weeks. Then discussed again because he's forgotten what was discussed the first time around. Several key employees are tied up in meetings throughout the week that use up 8-9 hours that could be used much more productively.

Question: Describe the worst boss you've ever had?
