And according to a new survey, employees and bosses REALLY disagree on how often they apologize.
Only 5% of employees say their boss always apologizes . . . but 49% of BOSSES say they always apologize. On the flip side, 50% of employees say their boss rarely or never apologizes . . . only 2% of bosses think they rarely or never apologize.
The survey also asked bosses the reasons why they might not apologize. Here are the top five . . .

18% are afraid of looking weak.
18% say it's, quote, "not necessary."
7% say, quote, "I'm the boss, I shouldn't have to."
