My face when I'm trying to remember what my boss is talking about but he has the worst breath I've EVER smelled in my life. I can't focus on anything that he says because I concentrating on breathing through my mouth and not making a face. Is there a polite way to mention this to him?

Maybe have a box of mints, take one and ask if he would like one? If he says no, reply with, "you sure?" Ack.

My boss (atty) is so disorganized! I’ve been with him 6 months and he’s having a hard time delegating, sharing info and managing deadlines. I’ve organized the caseload to manage the deadlines. He says he wants me to help with discovery but when I offer to start on one, he says he needs to do it. (Since he might have to present as evidence) When I give him deadlines and ask for the docs he says he’ll get to it. It’s a small 1 man firm, and I’m the first assistant besides his wife. Any advice?
