Does your boss comes from a SQLServer shop or is he just one of these pointy-haired bosses?
SQLServer allows to setup autoshrink=Yes which actually shrinks datafiles on-the-fly (database size becomes variable) then, reclaimed space can be seen at OS level.
If this is the case -SQLServer trained boss, tell him "welcome to the wonderful world of Oracle", if not think of it as "serving time", you are winning credits and your next life might be better
