Voo Doo... do you think it makes sence to pay someone $35 an hour to do the work of someone you could pay $5 an hour to do?? How rational is that?

And I'm guessing your manager makes a *little* more than you.
So, should a manager to take his/her time to do "administrative tasks," or would it be wiser to delegate that task to a subordinate?

It would be wiser to hire a temp to come and do it.. Its not arrogance, its called respect. Im not going to be some one's bitch, period.
Using your logic, it makes perfect sence for you to bring your boss his coffee, because his time is more valuble than yours right??

First off when it comes to my job (as a production manager) I am a minority in the company and have fought tooth and nail to get to the position I am at now. I call it like I see it, and am a bit out-spoken, but am seldom wrong.
What I have found is that it is not always what you say to another person, but instead how you say it. I have gained the knowledge over the years to be able to tell someone exactly how I feel on a subject, without them becoming offended or defensive. And if the need arises for me to voice my opinion to my direct superiors, the discussion usually ends up in a productive manner. And in the end they look at me in a respectful manner and value my opinions.
You need to remember that when you are approaching those above you that you want to come out of the situation shining like gold.... Also, you don't always have to be negative to produce the results that you are looking for. There is nothing wrong with "sugar-coating" a story, as long as the general point is received.
Good Luck to you!!

OLA!!
I've lost it on my boss before.
Now I just torture everyone by not overseeing the supplies of the fax machine. No one can seem to understand that when you run out of paper or ink you need to refill it and when you run out of supplies to refill it with you have to mention it to me BEFORE there is no paper or ink left in the building.
It's a small treasure but it amuses me.
