Is it an obligation to tell your boss about a health problem that could keep you from finishing an important task? Of course.
Steve Jobs' boss is his stockholders.
- xal 17y agoNo, his boss is his board. The board knew what was going on. The shareholders can appoint new board members if they feel so inclined.

- JabavuAdams 17y agoIt's certainly not a legal obligation. It may be a contractual obligation, depending on what you've signed.
- thras 17y agoLegal obligations are only a small fraction of the real obligations of men.
- JabavuAdams 17y agoWell, that's true and yet completely general -- therefore not particularly useful when considering specific cases. I do not believe that an employee is obliged, in all cases, to do as you say. Once you're beyond legal and contractual (read uniform) requirements, the rest depends on the specific context. It's silly to make an absolute statement. Your literary / dogmatic phrasing raises interesting questions. Is this a special topic for you?
- andreyf 17y agoSteve Jobs' boss is his stockholders His obligations to the board and his stockholders are so different from what most people consider by the word "boss", I think that's more misleading than informative...
