Alas, sometimes that's just not possible. Sometimes you end up with a Boss From The Eighth Circle of Hell.
As I've mentioned before, the Boss I had at the marketing agency in which I worked was not what you would call a computer whiz. We used to joke that we could give him one of those cardboard computers they use on desk displays in office stores and he probably wouldn't know the difference.
One day the Accounting/Payroll lady got some kind of virus on her computer. The Boss walked into the Designer's room and shouted, "Mabel (not her real name) has a fungus on her computer! Does anybody know how to get rid of a computer fungus?"
