Tomorrow is National Boss’s Day, so if you’ve got a boss worth recognizing, now’s your chance… This time, you can be the one to buy lunch, bring snacks, or do the environmentally-friendly thing and send a Boss’s Day ecard!

We asked the Smilebox community on Facebook to give us their thoughts on what makes a good boss and this is what they said:

A good boss is…

• “Someone who takes a personal interest in his team – who knows something about them and what makes them tick.” – Lee Ann
• “Understanding, confident, and able to see things from all angles.” – Kristie
• “A good listener.” – William
  
• “A great boss is one that is willing to roll up his sleeves with his employees to get the job done and meet a crucial deadline. AND he’s NOT a screamer.” – Monica
