That's making a lot of assumptions about your 'boss'.

sounds like your boss got at least one thing right :)

That's what your boss is for.

but then how would the boss micromanage you!?

Hope your boss ain't reading this!

the question is: would your boss say the same thing?

Taking a job knowing that the boss was incompetent, but he thinks he is t a top notch.
