Do you like your boss?

Sometimes I do, sometimes I think he's a total a$$hole. It depends on my and his mood.

You are the boss, just do it!

You just walk right up to your boss and tell him/her.  If you are forthright about it, it shows you have what it takes to come to the point and want to come up in the world.  That is what a boss wants from an employee.........ambition and guts.

Fireing a person is never easy althought George Jettsons boss sure makes it look easy.  If he is hindering progress, not doing what he is supposed to be doing or what ever then you should.  Its part of your job perameters.  If you dont do it then other employee's will see you as soft and you boss might see you as incompetant.

When I make a suggestion or ask a question to my boss, I never let on to what I want the answer to be, sometimes I even suggest an answer that I don't want because I know my boss is going to change whatever I suggest. If I word it right, I can get him to suggest what I wanted, and think that it's his idea.

I've dated a boss of mine.  Heck, even the girl who worked my job before me -- she quit because she married my new boss!  Go for it.  Just remember -- work is work, relationship is relationship.  And wait until he ends it current one before you move in on the prize.\n\nI actually work with my fiance -- he's not my boss, but we met here and have been together for 2.5 years.  Studies show that us overworked Americans are turning more and more to workplace relationships and employers are becoming okay with it.

You shouldn't ever guage how you determine the course of your life or career based on what you think someone else will think of you. You should take a position that will fulfill you more in your career and within yourself.\n\nIf your boss is a good person, and you're open, honest and straightforward in your pursuit of a different position, then your boss will encourage you to better yourself. If (s)he doesn't, then (s)he isn't really a good person to work for.

Well I work for my dad. He is an ok boss. I sometimes get mad at him but I can't show it because I have to be respectful to him in front of the other employees...So that definately sucks. But other than, its nice!

Honesty is a remarkably powerful option here, both with yourself and with your boss.  There is risk / benefit to consider both on the side of taking action, or accepting the circumstances and focusing on not letting your contempt for your boss interfere with your job satisfaction.  \n\nI believe strongly that if you have contempt for your boss, your best move no matter how difficult, may be to bite the bullet and move on to another company.  Contempt is a very strong emotion - could your boss really ever redeem himself in your eyes?  If you can't change things at your company, and you are not willing to leave, then you need to give yourself permission to take your situation with your boss in lighter terms.  \n\nTry talking to your bosses boss, but that could quickly back fire if your boss's boss thinks you are the problem, not your boss

Don't. What good would it do you? Does liking them or not liking them effect your job quality?\nNot everyone is always going to like everyone else and in a work place you are just never going to like everyone. But you still have a job that has to be done.\nIf they are trying to be your friend explain to them that you are not interested and that you are there to work not make friends. But other then that it really is not necessary.

I think that type of leader can get his employees to work for him in a postive way.  I had a boss like that. He lit up the room with his positive attitude.  He was a Biochemist and ex-naval commander.  Everyone that worked for him busted their buns to be the best employee..he had a way of making you feel good for your accomplishements...he died in 1994 and to this day I miss him but will always love him

Not bad at all where I work, but then again almost all our bosses are totally cool. But I've been places where people flat out tell their boss "F--k You", and nothing happens to them. Weird....

you cant 'make' people like you. they either do or they dont.i have a friend "Al", nobody seems to like the guy and when he kisses the bosses arse it makes things worse for him cuz he losses the respect of fellow workers. me? I tend not to give a hoot what the boss thinks of me (or what my co-workers think of me for that matter).\ni just do my job and do it well and guess what? the boss and my co-workers tend to like me alot. go figure...

Unfortunately, most bosses are like this....but I have learnt to face up to my boss (your boss) or anyone who is "in a way putting you down", and it works....I will turn the tables on them and ask them simply "what it is that they don't agree with" or what would they do differently, I will never allow anyone to just "put me down" without at least getting some kind of response back from them, I want to know the reason why.......especially and you must be honest, if your intentions were well meaning....and after a few times doing this to your boss, your friend, your family member, someone in a store/restaurant, believe me, you will leave them with an IMPRESSION of who you are and that will be, that you will want to get to the core of the matter........Good-Luck

If they are nice to you, why don't you like them?
