well.. I had a job were me and 3 other colleagues were responsible for a chain of 5 restaurants, we were all young around 20+. Well my boss used verbal insult, mind-games, humiliation, screaming, even got to hit one of my colleagues in the face =) and you know what? This all happens because he is a small, bald, ugly and uneducated man, all 3 of us working there had degrees so he just felt frustrated, and had a serious self-esteem problem also, and because he’s a coward he used his superior position to humiliate us, thus making him feel better about himself. lol: That’s such basic behavior, and so predictable, even boring.

I left after a few months, as did everyone. If someone actually reads this… believe me “LIFE IS TO SHORT TO TAKE S**T FROM ANYONE”… it’s not worth it to feel like a moron, useless, humiliated, stressed, no self-esteem, no matter how good the paycheck is.

If your boss is an impotent wuss, that wants to spill his frustration on you, no matter what you say or do… JUST LEAVE.

I’m 28 years old, have a degree in hotel management, still working below that, but I’ll get there soon, but with one thing in mind: I don’t let NO ONE step on my face.

There are situations were you can surely use what we just read above, and I agree with it, but also there’s also many situations were the employee, is a punch bag, for the the boss’ emotional meltdown… Guess what, GET A SHRINK! We’re paid to work for you, not to take your nasty s!!t and make you fell better ❗

Hey Josh,
I am an adult educator and currently developing a job readiness course for an employment service agency for Natives of North America. Your site has provided many useful resources, that I will share with the class that will begin in January that I will be instructing as well. I love my job! My boss lacks the management skills that would be ideal, so much so one of my co-worker quit last week because she decided that she could not take it anymore, it is unfortunate that she was even too scared to try to resolve the issues at hand and just wrote (literally hand wrote) a letter of resignation to our boss’ supervisor and left during lunch hour, while our boss was out with the other co-worker, whom the boss has attached herself to. It is a very dysfunctional team, I just recently started (October 6th) and got first hand experience with the whole thing. First I was in an open office with the boss and three other co-workers and got moved to another open office with two other co-worker and then was offered to work at home due to the privacy I need in order to be more productive. Anyhow, thank you for the excellent work you are doing for humanity.
Take care
