Stupid Bosses

I work for a public college.

My field is highly technical. My immediate supervisor is a former parking attendant. It takes years to gain the knowledge to work in my field. I have no idea how she got the job. Of course, she does not know what the hell she’s supposed to do.

She pisses me off because:

She works only 7 hours a day but is required to work 8. She watches the clock when I come in about five minutes late.

Everyone in the office works only 7 hours a day. They get to pick the time they want to come in.

She would not let me pick my time.

She takes about ten smoke breaks a day plus coffee breaks.

She was supposed to be fired years ago but her boss is protecting her because he’s just like her.

I used to work at this clothing store. It was amazing. The people were great and welcoming, the managers made you feel at home. My boss’ name was “Jake”. Jake was such an awesome guy, very well respected and fair. He always made sure that us employees were always satisfied. 6 months go by after I got hired and Jake got moved to manage another store with with better opportunity, so we were excited for him. He then appointed one of the few managers we had to become our next boss, and he chose “Stacy”. She was nice too but was really close with “Rob” and “Nick”. However after she was made into our new boss, us employees figured, well, now that she’s our main management, she will keep a level of professionalism and distance herself from these two boys. Needless to say, she grew even close to them and played favorites.

When things are not going for him in his personal life, he takes it out on us. He is always checking on us (which I don’t mind), but he’ll either sneak up on us or watch us from a distance hiding behind the racks. Than he’ll pop out of nowhere and look at his watch and look at us without even saying a word. The next day, he’ll move us to another department and give us the silent treatment. Other times he’ll just stand there and stare at us without saying a word. When ever his football team loses, where it be college or the NFL, he is in a bad mood. But when his team wins, we’ll hear about it all day from him. And if his team loses, he’ll say, “We are at work. We are here to work and talk work, not football.” When he gets upset, he’ll grunt and bite on his teeth screaming obscenities through his teeth. One time he kicked the door and threw the phone at the wall. He got rid of his secretary because as he says it, women have no place in the shop. Everytime we work overtime, its always mandatory. When we asked why he doesn’t go ask around the guys for volunteers before he makes it mandatory overtime, his comment was, “That way I don’t have to ask”. His personal life is in shambles. His second marriage only lasted a month and a half. He left his 9 year old daughter at home while he was at work. When the boss checked his voice mail, I could hear her crying and saying that she was scared to be alone at home. When ever a deliverer comes to work, and if its a female, he won’t allow us to sign the paper work. He’ll meet her outside before she has a chance to walk inside to the receiving clerk. He once got punched on the forehead by another employee for pointing his finger in the employee’s face. He is known among the plant and in the front office as, “psycho, whiner, baby, mama’s boy, redneck, cry baby, ticking time bomb, communist,german secret agent, etc

Stupid CoWorkers

I’m in the middle of a remodel and 2-room addition at home, which, if you’ve been through one, is akin to walking through the Gates of Hell. I asked for this Friday afternoon off so I could be home to let in the carpet cleaners and linoleum layers. My supervisor said that would only leave 3 people at work, so, no, I couldn’t. So far this week, we have only had 3 people at work every day. Evidently it’s only a problem when I need the time off
