Riddle Wednesday

Boss’s Day is celebrated on October 16th in the US to show appreciation for bosses and managers for their hard work and leadership. People often give cards, gifts, or just share a simple “thank you” to acknowledge their boss’s efforts and leadership. It’s a nice way to foster positive relationships in the workplace.
