With Microsoft's 'robotic boss' in the making, goofing off at work while your boss is away could soon become a thing of the past.

Microsoft is working on a robot that will allow people to be in two places at once.

That means when your boss is taking a day off work or on vacation, they could also be in the office at the same time.

The robot is equipped with a pair of cameras, wheels and a high-definition screen to allow employees to interact with their boss through Web cams.

CNN’s David Goldman says it may not be too long until a ‘robotic boss’ will be strolling down hallways to attend work meetings.
