My boss just sent me an email, well written about how he wasn't going to yell at me for promising to get up a new company website before the new year and not following through because he just checked an the site wasn't up..but he was really angry...
Of course, I put the new site up on Dec 30 and he just had the old site cache in his browser. I just emailed him back a gracious email apologizing ha it took as long as it did, but that the site has indeed been up. I await the apology.

"how he wasn't going to yell at (you)"
If anyone at work ever yelled at me, I would put them in their g-ddamn place. I don't give a flying fuck who they are, or if their name is on the checks I'm given.

- this is a sure sign that you probably need to be yelled at quite often ;)
onewhoslaps - Probably. But I'd go Buddy Rich so no one does.********

Haha..here was his email:
"i was reading an article this weekend in Time of an interview with Obama and one of the questions was re: whether or not he gets angry. Of course he does, but he said he is not a yeller , but finds that he is able to let people know how disappointed he is and allows the guilt to do the work. So, I am going to try that in regard to getting our web site up. I am very disappointed that after being told time and again that almost within the hour it would be up and running that it is still not there? You tell me you have worked the bugs out and all you needed were some pix and then ... I lets a week lapse before I checked and sure enough it is still the old site with the same old stuff? What am I missing here? X@#<@%$^ Ok that was just a little yelling - the guy must loose his temper from time to time."
I just got of the phone with him and figured it out. He said "I went to the google and typed in our company and the old site came up..." Ah. Because the new site has a slightly different address and google obviously hasn't crawled it since I put the new site up. I just made a little redirect script so anyone getting the old address from google will be sent to the right address.
He apologized and was very nice about it.

Interesting... if you actually tell people your philosophy about guilt by disappointment, doesn't that defeat the purpose?

You should set up a re-direct for the old page Google has indexed...

Your boss needs to learn how to use a Question Mark correctly. His spelling and grammar are also way out of whack. Can people not write correctly anymore?

Can you mention the url of the company in this thread, please TheBlueOne ?
Then your boss will see this nice little story about him next time he 'googles' the company instead of just going to the url..
