Proof I need to get out of here:

Boss: *sends me an e-mail full of documents I already have because it was CCed to me yesterday* Please print these out for my review.
Things wrong with this request:
1) They're all one-page documents, and there are only six of them.
2) HE HAS HIS OWN PRINTER IN HIS OFFICE.
If they were booklets and he wanted them double-sided, fine. I can understand that. But no, this is the easiest of the easy. "Print, because I can't be bothered to do it myself."
This is a case of "I wasn't in for two days, so I'm going to give you menial labor".
It's probably not as big a deal as I'm making it out to be, but I don't like work for the sake of work. That's stupid.
I'm already in a miserable mood, I don't need him making it worse.
