Internet Users Share Their Two Cents on the Fine Line Between Being Frugal and Being Cheap

A lot of these that we have talked about so far have been about practicing cheapness or frugality in your own life. But what if you have a super cheap boss? That can be a whole other level of difficult, because it is a real pain if your boss refuses to pay for the things that you need to do your job safely and well.

For example, we’ve got this fish story, which is phrased as though it is a hypothetical situation but is so very specific that I can only assume that it actually happened. In that case, this boss was definitely penny-wise and pound-foolish because surely paying for this accident is worse than paying for a knife sharpener.
