An Annoying Boss!

Philippines
June 4, 2011 4:08am CST
I have this boss for quite some time. I worked for her for one year and four months. She is very annoying because she is very tactless even though many people may be hurt. Sometimes, she will scold me in front of other people although I did made a mistake. She also wants me to do a thing that could be shame for me. She cannot understand you if you want to talk a problem. She is an intelligent girl but in an indecent way. The most embarrassing moment was that, i had to open our email to send a message to our online students and eventually I wrongly clicked the sent item button and suddenly, I was shocked of what I read because she was sending a bad message about me. What shall I do now? should I continue my services to her? or shall I stop and find another job?

Wow i thought i was the only person with an annoying boss. My boss is so fake so gets on my last nerves. As long as i come in on my days off and stay over time she is happy and smiling in my face. But if i can't stay for any reason she do really talk to me. She is so annoying!

Hi! squarepants, It sounds like your boss is an unhappy person and is taking her anger out on you. She shouldn't scold you in front of everyone, that's not professional and it makes her look bad. If it's possible, find out if you can actually sit down and talk to her about the situation that's happening. All that stress in the workplace does make people ill. And if feasible hold on to the job you have and begin your search for a new job. Only you know if jobs are plentiful or scarce in your area. Stay optimistic!

Hi. squarepants. Your boss is a really mean woman! When I had a boss like this, seven years ago, I had quit my job. I don't recommend you to do the same, not unless this is how you feel. I think that her behavior is very nasty! I think that you should talk to her first about how you feel and if the ugliness does not stop then you should contact her supervisor, or someone that is over her. She was wrong to send a bad message about you like that. What kind of boss does something like this? A hateful, nasty, rude, sickening, ugly, and foul boss does!

Hi squarepants, That woman who calls herself your boss needs to be taught a lesson and a real good one too. There is no point in sitting down and talking to her. You might as well find yourself another job because it looks like if you don't you're in for alot of depression. Obviously she is going to push you further. Don't give her that sarisfaction. Thumbs down to her management skills.

I think you should find a suitable time to talk with your boss. Tell her how you feel and make her realize how much you have put in the job and your desire to continue to give her the best of your service. Present your feelings in a respectful tone and I am sure she will be willing to change if she noticed that you want to live for another job. best of luck, cheers

hi naija4real, I have been thinking bout that idea but I think it doesn't work for her. I know it is bad to gossip about her but it is true. I am now hoping for the best that I can cope up with this. Thank you for the comments and hopefully that I could find a job that is for me.

If I were in your shoes, the first thing I would do is to find a way to communicate well with her before deciding to quit your service with her. Maybe she is facing some work issues with you, what could it be might be for a reason. If you cannot go directly with her, find someone who could help you to talk with her. Always think of two possibilities, either she would be nice to you or she would not. After knowing her reasons of why is she like that with you, then go decide if you will quit working with her, because you know its not easy to find a job right now.
