General Venting

[QP]

My boss usually picks a scapegoat every year and I'm the lucky bastard this year. I have always been nice and respectful to him because I know how crazy he is. Twice this year he blew up at me and I thought he was going to hit me.

Two fucking old bags who are coworkers at work with me, who are best friends, who do the minimal to get by, text and make phone calls all day, often taking several smoking breaks tell the crazy bastard that I'm not doing my job. He calls me in his office and tells me he is writing me up because he was told I don't do my work and that he is tired of my moodiness and snappiness. He does not give me a chance to talk at all. It's done and over.

So I get written up, those two booze hounds continue to do nothing at work and he is the biggest offender of being moody and snappy! And this dumb fuck calls himself a Christian! He's further from being a Christian! I HATE that fucker so much!

i hate this woman sooooo much..i was so happy to get this job...now i feel like jumping out of the window...or kill her....not a single person lasted with her for more than two months...i have started to look as well.....the bitch thinks she's the supreme goddess walking around....n the human race should be grateful for she came to become part of them...she will be sugar sweet when she needs it..othr time she expects the employees will bow before her..worship her...or chant...hail boss..i wonder how will she finish the project before deadline..with the subordinates leaving one after another!!!..no management skills...completely a stupid women ..who thinks she's the wisest lawyer ever born into this world!!

[Pissed Off]

I hate my boss so much I am literally on the verge of putting my fist in his face most days. I'm casual, and under no award rate, so I'm paid less that a Maccas employee, although I do up to 50 hours per week inc overtime and during lunch breaks.... so it's cheaper for my boss to fire me and hire someone new for less of the cost (he doesn't train anyone, the staff members do it - so like he cares). My boss has had his business for over 20 years, and if it weren't for us he would of lost it within the last year because he does not manage his accounts, he undercharges almost everyone, and he doesn't bother to even get payments for orders. Of course he constantly lectures us and gets shitty at us for these things which he himself never does. Oh and I forgot the brilliant part, his wife is a raging alcoholic who passes out naked AT WORK and who produced him with a mentally challenged (and extremely irritating) child which he expects us to mind when we're working AND he also sexually harasses (verbally but also physical like groping) half of the staff members daily. And he says sexually inappropriate things to customers. I could go on with a lot more things but I'm vented for now. Lol. I can't think of anyone I know with a more goddamn fucking irritating and arrogant boss.

Let me start by saying that i've never been on this site before, and i would never normally do this. However, after the day i had today, i think a bit of ranting is warranted. I work in a retail store that sells things to Professionals. I am one of these "professionals" that is to say i have been to school for this profession, passed my boards, all of that. my "boss" HAS NOT. However the bitch lies and tells the customers that she HAS. The ONLY reason she has this position is because the woman that was in the position has been there for 15 years and felt she was getting a bit to old to carry the work load. so she stepped down to assistant, and my "boss" being the next in line was HANDED the job. As if this isn't bad enough...she bitches about having to work 60-70 hours a week.....(not only to us but she also says this to our customers) and i've done the math....we aren't even open that many hours a week. NOT TO MENTION that she doesn't have to clock out for her lunch breaks or when she leaves the store during the day. Just as an example, i came in at 12:00 the other day she left at 12:30.....and didn't come back until almost 6!!!!! leaving me and one other older woman there BY OUR SELVES......and this is a VERY BUSY store. she goes to the bank (about 4 minutes down the road) and is gone for AT LEAST 45 minutes. she goes on break and is gone for 2 hours.....she only works for 10:30-8:30!!!! it's not like she's working 12 hours days! however she expects me to work 10 1/2 hours and only take a 30 minute break. PLEASE tell me how this is fair!? And i found out today that she has been talking about me behind my back to the other workers. If i call and complain about her NOTHING will get done. HER boss found out that she had been late 21 days in a row (yes 21)and wrote her up. but since then hasn't even checked on the store. the only reason she found out is because she came in one day with out any notice and she just happened to be late that day so she checked. the bitch DOESN'T DO HER JOB, and I AM MORE QUALIFIED FOR HER POSITION THAN SHE IS!!!! but does any of this matter?? no. i'm a pee-on. so that's what happens. i get shit on and no one cares.

I'm working in a production office for a TV show and my boss is the production coordinator. She has severe anger issues from personal problems and treats the three of us in the office like we're part of a therapy plan. She's makes us come in at 6.30am so she can go have breakfast on set, and we aren't allowed leave the office for at least 13 hours. After a few weeks my body regulated itself and I only eat one meal a day now without feeling too hungry. She spends the entire day screaming, snapping & swearing at us as long as the producer/ director/ department heads aren't within earshot - for little or NO reason - and when she acts all nice and chatty and lulls you into a false sense of security, she'll suddenly call you boring or insult you personally. Yesterday when I asked her (a few weeks) in advance if I could leave for 30 minutes to go to the doctor, she demanded to know why, and what prescriptions I was getting. She calls the junior member of the team (he's 21) "The Boy", mostly when she's referring to him to other people, it's so demeaning. She bitches and complains about the other two to me, and about me to the other two. I could go on all day, but she's looking at me now and I think she's going to ask me what I'm doing any minute. Because it's the film industry, bullying and sociopathic behaviour is ignored and unregulated. I spent the first 30 minutes of my day today crying, first discreetly (and humiliatingly) at my desk, then in the bathrooms.

It's miserable.

my boss is insane! not kidding she is in love with my dad and told me the only reason she hired me was because of him. But get this. she's married! she's a paranoid schizophrenic phsyco. and she hates me!
one time when i couldn't come to work one of the children i teach gave me a christmas gift and SHE TOOK IT! and told everyone not to tell me. and because i called off of work she told everyone never to call me for work again. she prances around with her bikini on trying to show my dad her tan lines. and flirting with our 19 year old staff members. i can't STAND her!
oh and heres the kicker, she called me accusing me of talking about her and demanding that i apologize for undermining her authority, telling my mother when she called that she couldn't speak with her because she had a better relationship with my father.Ha but when she did talk to my dad the only reason why she called is because she caught me rolling my eyes while she was talking. completely insane.

[firefoxnin]

we can't let these stupid egotistical bastards get to us anymore, but hell i know it's hard not to want to rip there faces off or just completely tear them apart emotionally, i fantasize about it daily. i just wish they could understand where were all coming from and get off our cases just a little bit. yeah right. ill just keep dreaming.

Well there are three girls in our office. One of them happens to be my boss. She leaves at all hours of the day and leaves for lunches when we are supposed to be here and eat them. She calls in sick when she has been out drinking the night before. She says shes in the hospital with a kidney infection but my friends see her at the bar. She blames all her mistakes on me and my dad is the general manager here and he does nothing about it. he lets her get away with anything. we have 40hrs of paid sick time and she has already taken her 40 and added another 80 on top of that. thats only what she has recorded. she has made me cry so many times. I HATE MY BOSS

[nitarose44]

I am so glad I found this website!

Well, here's my vent: my boss is one of those women that is obsessed with being cool and trying to look young in front of her peers. To top it off, we are in HR and she is the HR manager so she walks on water in the company.

Anyways, yesterday I received my frist write up in my life & guess what....it was 2 days before my 3rd annual performance review was due. That day I had received numerous compliments on a recent publication that I had created. My boss was not happy that she was not getting recognized for this, so she started searching for things in our database that I had beening working on and that were not necessarily done the way she wanted even though they were completely accurate per company policy. She printed each of the reports out and put them in a huge file and labeled the file (my name's mistakes" So, she sat me down and gave me a write up and now she's feeling pretty proud. Every day she brings in empty interoffice envelopes that employees put in her box and then she drops them on my desk and says put them away. Mind you..... the slot that they go in was direclty next to her mail box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the thing that she does that annoys me the most is that she is rude to me (power trip) when other managers are around, but overly nice as soon as it's just her and I. I"m so sick of the two faced person she is.

I really can't stand her as a person and as my boss. If it weren't for this economy....I would have left a long time ago.

Well, I am 17 and I work at a library.. which I hate, but there were no other jobs.. So anyways, my boss is a fucking bitch I hate her face, she always does this stupid fake smile when she says sarcastic shit to me. And then she plays the "old" card and makes me do all the back breaking shit.. I thought working at a library would be easy, but when I get home I'm so exhausted I can't do anything I want to do but watch tv. I'm wasting my whole summer with this bitch telling me what to do from 9-5 .

[middlechild]

o.k. i dont really hate my boss he has done alot for me but I have a coworker who is 25 and over the course of two years he has tried to hand her everyone else work so she feels important it is bad enough she started off making the smae amount as me which took me three years to make not because she has any special skills or anything shes kinda dumb to be honest but she dresses like a whore and dances in my bosses doorway and throws herself at him. did i mention she started making what i make as a office helper I run my own department and work well over 40 hours per week. I have alwat=ys put my job before anything even my son and my health and he want to hand this bitch eveything she awlays messes up on her own job because she rushes through everything so she can raise her hand" i'll do I'll do it" makes me sick so when she fucks up on her job it is then my job to clean up the mess. My boss even told me fuck you when I tried to tell him that she was taking my phone call while i was out acting like she ran my department I even had e-mails to prove but he did not want to hear anything about his little bitch. WHAT CAN I DO??? Some days I want to quit because i leave work get in my car and cry because anotherday of him making me feel like she is the only one that matters HELP she would be thrilled if I quite thats what they both want

[trashprincess]

my prick boss just asked me IF I LIKE MY PAYCHECK and made me cry because I denied a customer access to our dumpster! hello.....For years, if dumpster full, come back another day! Literally asked me three times....Do you like your paycheck? WTF???

[Fed up]

Thought I would vent here since my family has heard one two many stories about my narcissistic a-hole of a boss. Well, yesterday produced another great story. He was really busy and asked me if I could go get him lunch. Keep in mind that I am a mid-level employee, have 2 Master's degrees (2 more than he has), and we have an intern working in our department (besides the fact that interns and assistants are not expected to play delivery boy either).

Silly me... I filed this under the "favor" category and accepted since, to be fair, he was swamped. Even if understanding why he couldn't have called for delivery or packed a lunch knowing he would be in a meeting all day is still beyond me. When I finally delivered his take out (no tip), he proceeded to complain about the fact that his chopsticks were missing and ... this is the best part ... told me to do a "quality check". Is this guy for REAL?

[Fed up]

By the way, I am very happy to have found this website. It seems that some of the problems I have been going through at work are a recurring theme here. In fact, I recently read an article that personality disorders (specifically narcissistic personality disorder) are a BIG problem among management in many companies. Does this sound like your boss?: www.healthyplace.com/personality-disorders/transcripts/narcissism-in-the-workplace/menu-id-62/

I'm sick and tired of my boss. I was transferred to this site as a favor to her and I can't seem to do anything right. I've never had a manager scream at me before, especially not as frequently as she does. I'm particularly tired of early morning wakeup calls. I'm sorry, if you want to scream at me, I had better be getting paid for it. Calling at 6am, mere hours after I left work, on my day off....... unacceptable. I'm more tired of how this crap weighs on my head all day long. Today is my day off. I worked last night, only slept a couple of hours before her call woke me up, and though I didn't answer and don't intend to call back, I can't fall back to sleep because now I'm worried about what I could have possibly done this time. I used to really like my job before I transferred here. It was a place I enjoyed going to, and I planned to keep at it until I was finished grad school. I can't do this anymore.
