I want to work in a place that is professional. Where buddies don't barge in, leaving me standing alone with my ignored greeting while they go and chat with my boss and the other girl. Where all the clients are equal. Where promises are made but when it comes time to dole them out, there is a second interpretation and I get shafted.

I guess more important than this is I wish I had the (no ifs ands or buts, these kids got) guts to actually tell my boss that the way he stated above promise did not for one minute make me think of the second, shafting interpretation.
