I bet she'd give me SS#'s if I asked!
I have a very gossipy boss who shares personal information about other employees to me all the time. She also talks very badly of her own supervisors. She constantly is blurting out things that I think should be confidential and then saying "but don't tell anyone" or "I only told yo... more

FED UP!
I cringe at myself much of the time because I am unable to keep my mouth closed when I see incompetence, unjust practices, failure to comply with policy, etc. I have worked for a company tooooo long - have been a supervisor, moved out of state, returned to the company as a "staffer." The... more

my big fat greek boss
i've worked for the same company for over a decade and over the last two years had to work very close with the owner of the company. She regulary lies to her fellow directors and pays herself a lot more then them even though they are equal parners. she has her fat husband working in the company who ... more

working for jerks!
I do not understand the philosophy of my supervisors...minor incidents occur at work...we (the staff) respond to them appropriately - as we are experienced and trained to do (not from this job...from previous experiences - which is why we were hired in the first place...experience and knowledge...du... more

You change your mind, like a girl change her clothes...
yeah, that line in katy perry's song it's just perfect for my bosses. i work at a small hotel in the outskirts of lisbon. besides the rushed-up opening, hotel management rules change with the wind. i don't have a degree in hotel management (they have attended a small course for about 3 months. pur-l... more

sleeping with the enemy
I work in a small office (about 12 people). Over the past two years the married, front desk employee has been showing some interesting behavior...new boobs, new car, new clothes, etc. that I can't believe she can afford. Also, my employer who had outspokenly considered her an average employee in t... more

Suddenly feel like I'm working at a daycare
I've had a lot of crappy bosses in the past, but my current one takes the cake. I work at a small construction related shop owned by a husband and wife. I'm considerably overqualified for the position, but times are tough. I was hired to coordinate, and the wife has made it her sole duty to slowly ... more

The idiot does not want give up control
The company has grown and they are hiring professionals, but the Managing Director is not letting the managers do their jobs. He wants to micro manage everthing. He also has the old outdated philosophy that staff has to be pushed and not motivated. Our turn over of staff is rediculous, simply becaus... more

CFO = Certified F%$#ing Oaf
I work for a small oil company, my boss is the CFO of the company. I get paid $15/hour to be an accounting assistant. That SHOULD entail entering invoices, applying payments, filing, etc.

Instead I do HIS job so he can play online all day long, so right now I am managing all 300+ investment p... more

Still "Mashing it around"
I told my boss 3 weeks ago that I was taking myself off a project due to a team that had gone seriously sour (We can do this because we are independant contractors). The only thing my boss has to do is -TELL THE CLIENT- Does this happen?? No, the Client still calls me everyday asking for updates.... more

Just plain stupid
My boss keeps me in a "box" doing menial shit that I'm overqualified to do ... in spite of glowing performance reviews, my winning awards for the agency, and continually going "above and beyond." He also hoards information; no one on the team ever knows where he is (he never even... more

Sometimes Stupid Goes all the Way to the Top!
My boss hired a business consultant to come in and review our firm, and let him know what we need to change to make the company more profitable. The gentleman does this for a living, has years of experience helping small and medium-sized companies grow and is known in the business community as a sma... more

Friend takes over
So, my boss hired his stupid pal to be my supervisor. He's not as bad at the job as I thought he would be ... he's worse. He thinks being a boss means delegating all the work to subordinates, coming in late, leaving early and filling one's time with endless meetings while nodding sagely.

I fear ... more

Cronyism rules
I work for a midsize family business that recently passed to the next generation. The spoiled little boy now running the firm has made several hires, all of which seem to be based on cronyism and who he likes to hang out with rather than who would be best at the job. He recently announced the elevat... more

F***** Up Brainless Bastard
My company is one of the largest fashion retail chain outlet in the world. The best is - i'm on the upper mgmt team. Let's just say this group of stupid people come to my country, hired me to set up the whole new company here and put another clueless bastard which will be my superior.
Best thing is... more

A crazy woman with evil eyes shouts to all and me
She does it to all but in her secret office she builds up morale and gets people doing things they do not get paid for. She is a user. She falsifies information. She is a manipulator. A lier and all that is shit in this life. If she wasn't how she is, she could be a fun woman but there is some evil ... more

Boss who doesn't defend staff
I work for an IT consultancy company. My Bosses like to talk a lot. They can talk for over an hour over a single page. They also have no sense, and ask their staff (me included) to add or do a lot of irrelevant things and hence waste a lot of our time. They also don't pass down most of the informati... more
