At no professional job should you expect your boss to slap you joking or not. It would be assault and immediate dismissal at nearly any professionally run organization. It's ridiculous that he even tries to justify rather than apologize.
I don't get the joke either, can somebody explain how your boss smacking you in the head is funny?
I can't stand that man, absolute mouth breather. Every time he opens his mouth I like him less.
….if we’re still in the PL next season, I’d be thinking Dyche is 3rd on my lifetime list of best Everton managers, with only Catterick and Kendall ahead of him.
