My bosses suck. They all have never done the job and all have been hired from outside the department I work in or have been hired within the department with little to no experience.
Most of my bosses suck. I did have a decent one a while back but they moved him out. The one I have now is a snivelly little bitch. He tries really hard to not give me a hard time but sometimes his micromanaging style comes out.
I had one guy that would try to rule with intimidation and yelling. Guy was old but could bench teh 350. He tried to intimidate everyone and bully people around. I would fuck with him though. He hated when you would call in sick or were "late" to work. To him even if you were a couple of minutes late one time you had attendance issues.
Dude would literally stand at the door with a notepad taking notes to see who was late that day. Then he would berate you later in the day and at end of year evaluations he would mention that you were late that one time so you don't deserve a raise or a good evaluation.
He hated people using earned sick leave. He hated when guys wives or women were pregnant. He hated that people wanted off for the birth of their child. I took six weeks off to piss him off and because my wife had a c section. She needed help around the house and with the baby.
When you would call sick he would yell at you and tell you that you're not dedicated enough. That you don't give a shit about the job. Lol. I would call and when he would start yelling I would just say so are you denying me my earned sick leave or can I use it? He would say I'll take care of it. And continue yelling. I didn't let him. After he said I could use leave I just say bye and hang up right away so he couldn't yell. It would piss him off so bad. He tried calling me back to continue yelling once. As soon as I answered I said are you calling me back to tell me I'm good to go on my leave and he said your good and try to start yelling again. As he was yelling I said ok good I'll see you tomorrow and hang up as soon as he began yelling again.
That guy was a total prick. I sprained my ankle in jiu jitsu one night. My ankle was a mess. I couldn't sleep that night due to the pain. So as soon as I woke up I called this douche bag to tell him I'm going to the doc. He was pissed. I went to the doc that day and when I was done I stopped by the office to give him my dr excuse and do a few things I really needed to finish up. It was already the end of the day. I went into his office and showed him my ankle. He said it looked nasty. When I gave him the dr note all it said was under my care for the date. He was all I need more than this. What ligaments were torn. What kind of care did he give you. I told him he could call my dr to find out because I don't know that shit. I also reminded him of HIPA. He went off on HIPA and started yelling about how corrupt doctors were and they were all scumbags and all sorts of shit. That guy was crazy.
He even tried to bow up to a little guy that was on workers comp. Anyone who took workers comp was a loser to him. Anyway this little guy was a pain in the ass but he was truly hurt. Anyway the boss tried to intimidate him and even stood up and slammed the table. The little guy yelled for help and called the cops right then and said he was being attacked, lol.
The thing is this supervisor used workers comp to get himself a shoulder surgery. He was 50+ years old and always lifted heavy as shit, even after he was told by his dr to take it easy. Guy was lifting heavy as shit a few weeks after his shoulder surgery. His arm was still in a sling and he was doing weighted pull ups and benching teh 275. Soon after he needed shoulder replacement surgery. He got "hurt at work", though. We all knew he was full of shit.
