Horrible Boss

Ive only had one horrible boss. She was nasty and I changed jobs after a couple of years. In my two different career paths I was mainly a boss but I always had someone higher up & got on fine with them.

My only boss was supposed to be temporary... but she went out of her way to make my job a misery. Nothing I did was ever right for her - even when I had to deviate from protocol for medical reasons.

My last day there, she had a go at me because I wouldn't use a vacuum cleaner that had been stored under a boiler that had flooded the staff area at the back of the shop.

I was pregnant at the time and I wasn't prepared to risk myself or my child to clean the floor for them. I never went back after that argument because they couldn't give me a different boss and I couldn't work with her anymore.

If I knew then that the stress would force me to miscarry, I'd have done the damn floor for them.

I have several, one of them was highly abusive( verbally and he violated the HR laws of the state of California too). I was new to the workforce and I didn’t know any better till I did. I ditched the job and moved on to another when he needed me the most. The cycle didn’t stop there. A year later I got another who had no idea what she was doing and blamed the workers for her own mistakes. Typical, isn’t it? After that I had a few more mafia managers till I said it’s enough. I work for myself now. I don’t have to deal with any customer or managerial bs. My product goes to a larger organization and I only deal with bright minds who can do their job, not just talk and blame.

I no longer work there, but a friend who stayed was promoted to general manager, then they demoted him to team shift and proceeded to give him one day a week. He put up with that shit for about a month and quit. He’d been there like 4 years. That was a shitty thing of Dairy Queen to do to him. I said it then every day and I’ll say it now. Fuck Dairy Queen.

I only had one horrible boss so far. I told him to stick the job up his arse, walked out and found another, much better one straight away.

Had a boss that expected favors to keep my job.

{laughman ] minegoes back when i was a storekeeper our big boss would come and all he ever did was criticise and fine fault basically he was a first class w@@ker 🤬

I would say my crappy bosses just have arrogance about them, don't listen to ideas, have no idea how to manage staff etc
