If you think your boss is the biggest cause of stress at work, you may be wrong, for a new study has claimed that spouses cause more anxiety at home than superiors in office.

According to the study, based on a survey of 3,000 people in Britain, there may be no place like home, but if one wants to relax then one might be better off at work.

My bosses are first class.

Sarcastic. Funny. Pushy. Smart as Hell. Meaner than a snake.

They are my reason for getting up in the morning.

Men usually marry women younger then themselves; that is why it seems wives outlive husbands.

Single women/single men are the stats that effect these statistics the most.

Single men never married reflects the higher death rate for men due to two factors: work and recreation related deaths, and the risky lifestyles of homosexuals. Women do not usually perform heavy construction, combat, or engage in risky adrenaline-driven sports activities.

There exists a high suicide and homocide rate among homosexuals, as well as a well known occurrence of diseases particular to anal sexual activities.

Single women never married exhibit little in the way of risky behavior, whether it be in reacreation or sexual lifstyles. Most have jobs that do not involve physical risk.

Keep in mind that this involves large groups over a long period of time. There will be individual exceptions to the above familiar to each of us.

It’s because they are the closest people to you, and when you feel they get on you unfairly, it’s worse than someone you’re less close to. When they don’t understand you and misinterpret what you did and usually assume the worst intention, it’s worse than if a stranger or acquaintance does it. It’s easier to let it slide when the person doesn’t know you as well. Part of it is we feel they should know us better, give us the benefit of the doubt, and not assume the worst about us. They know the things that bug us and yet when they still do those things it’s like they don’t care. You open up to them about problems and fears and if they get thrown back in your face during arguments, it’s just brutal betrayal.

And then, what if you and your spouse work together? I just blew your mind. Your boss at work could also be your ‘boss’ at home! No place to escape the stress. It’d be like the neutered guys in the Netherlands where the women won’t even let them pee standing up.
