The boss's wife is reasonably nice, but the boss has very poor emotional control. He often suddenly lashes out before getting the facts straight, and he also has a bad temper when customers reprimand him, taking it out on others.
When he is in a good mood, he lectures you about principles. The sentence he says most often is: “You should be reasonable in how you conduct yourself and handle things; with reason, you can go anywhere in the world.” Yet he often yells at people for no reason at all. When you first start, the boss will also frequently tell you how much previous employees received, saying that they always give cash for holidays and absolutely never gift vouchers—then when the holiday comes, he gives you 600 in cash.
