"It is a lesson in humility certainly, obviously i need to be taught that i am not too good to be bored and required to suffer my time to be wasted. i have no idea how to handle this gracefully. i would rather be playing my bagpipes and writing my paper."
Where is God in this? Well, I know it sounds counterintuitive, but even if they aren't Christians (or are), God has put them in authority over us, and we are told to pray for them. When was the last time you prayed for your boss (and not just for a large, heavy object to fall on him?) A lesson in humility, perhaps, but I think if there is a lesson involved, perhaps it is "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." OR maybe not :)
