Do you hate your boss?

I don't hate them, but I don't rate them either. Far too many, including my current workplace seniors, obtain their positions through having been perceived to have earned it rather than the ability to actually do it.
 
I like and respect all the people above me in my company right up to the MD.

I am occasionally angry at and/or terrified of my direct manager but I think if you're going to be a good manager you need that. I should work on getting me some of that.
 
I hate the way he says 'morning'. It's an extremely over excited and enthusiastic.. 'mooOORRNIIIINnn'... but he's not joking.

I just have to concentrate on not getting caught when doing my impression.

Other than that, he's appears to be quite sensible and knows what he's doing. I'm indifferent really... we don't speak much.

In my current job my boss has just left and she was excellent to work with. Would always tell me the gossip from management and tell me to move to bigger things etc. She was even asking her friends for jobs for me :D

However, she has left now for a role in insurance industry. Its not all doom and gloom though because she has also recommended me for a role at her new company where i am due to start within a month :D

You pumping her? Sorted.

I like mine but I have to as I work side by side 5 days a week. Just a straight talking, honest and reliable guy. Had a mad side which is funny when it comes out.

I absolutely despise mine, with a passion.

nope. I've known my current boss since we were kids, and our boss above him is absolutely fine too.

come to think of it, I've only had one boss I genuinely loathed, and that was when I worked in a call centre selling mobile phones (part time in uni holidays). she was a total biznicz, and was the most sales-driven, inhuman, unfeeling person I ever met. probably easy to get like that when all you see when you look at your employees is the size of your next monthly bonus...
 
Boss is an absolute legend. One of those guys who never gets ****ed off and you never ever need to hide anything whatsoever from. If **** ever hits the fan you tell him straight and he'll work with you to get it sorted. I think if you literally **** in a fan and it was all over the walls of the office he'd still be ok with it.

Maybe his cocaine habit has something to do with it, but then again I am a great employee ;). But yeah what a legend.

My boss the loveliest person in the world...............out of work that is! As a boss she is disorganized and promises things and then doesn't do them, for instance not paying someone to do an extra shift. She takes ages to action anything. (sorry boss:))
 
Nope, don't have one. Or a job. But my last boss was great, he owned the pub I was managing, but never bothered to actually turn up there. Also promised me a job should I ever go back to Edinburgh. And he was mental. And Dutch.
 
My boss is one of the hardest working people i know, he is more than fair he will even cover shifts so we can have nights out together and stuff.
Never had a boss so nice tbh
 
She's not my boss by any stretch, but i STRONGLY dislike the person i am working under at the minute.
 
This thread was in reaction to my old very good boss leaving and me obtaining a new boss who is a complete idiot.
