The Comedy Central show @Midnight is interactive with Twitter followers and encourages funny responses to a particular hashtag and last night’s (and still trending today): #WorstBossIn5Words.

Head over to Twitter under #WorstBossIn5Words to read more or feel free to add your own below! For once the most neauseating overused and misused phrase “this really is a conversation we should be having” is actually applicable. Thanks @Midnight!
