Told what to do about beds so badly made (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bossed

'told what to do' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'beds so badly made' is the wordplay.
'badly made' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'beds'+'so'='bedsso'
'bedsso' anagrammed gives 'BOSSED'.

'about' acts as a link.

(Another definition for bossed that I've seen is " Ordered".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
