I called it "Working with Stephen", but since we last worked together over 15 years ago, it's not like I keep grudges or anything.
Me at 9AM == I think we should do this, this way. Him at 9AM == Nope, can't work that way. We have to do it this way. Me at 9:05AM == Fine, Stephen. (mutters to self that for once I'm not going to argue, let it be a waste of a day, after all, he IS The Boss) Me == wastes a few hours, goes to lunch, returns from lunch, continues performing ridiculous task. Him at 2PM == I was thinking, maybe the best way to do it is THIS way. Me at 2PM == Stephen, good idea. I agree that would be best. Me to self == Stephen, don't you recall that this was the way that wouldn't work because *I* suggested it at 9AM?????

Rinse and repeat.
