Bosses Day is a time set aside to honor our employers, the individuals who work hard behind the scenes to make our work life more enjoyable and productive. Started in 1958 by Patricia Bays Haroski, this national observance came into being when she noticed her father- who was also her boss- completing countless jobs in the office to help his employees.
