change job.  It is better to work in an environment where you feel like a part of a team.

Most all people have some sort of mental illness. The key is are you being affected emotionally or physically by this person. If the answer to this is yes then take it from an middle aged person suffering daily from a boss and mother that are mentally ill. This has had a HUGE affect on my life and my children. So MY advice is to look for another job in an organized manner and make the move if you have any of the above issues.There are bosses that donot get off on power struggles.I have one now. BEST TO YOU.

I would tell him thanks to all of his great training and supervisory skills you feel ready to take a step up in the company....it is a step up, right?  Just let him know that you appreciated everything he has taught you and that you can't wait to sing his praises in another department....and make sure that is all that you do.  \n\nQuite honestly, if you have told ANYONE at work about this move.....he already knows.   Make sure you are available to help train or support the person who takes your place.....and once again DO NOT say anything negative about the boss to the new person.  That stuff travels faster then hot lava.\n\nGood luck in your new job!

In the US, the job market is so bad that your boss can make you do anything he wants and get away with it.  If you don't like him, you are free to look for another job.  I suggest you don't quit until you have one for sure.

Rise above it. If she deliberately embarasses you, then she is the problem. Do your work well and professionally. Talk with her and inform her that you would prefer to be told about your mistakes in private so that you could remedy them. Always be professional and job oriented. Bosses hate office politics....Document all incidents that are caused by her, if it continues over a period of time approach the person over both of you. If you are doing your work well, it will show.  If she is the boss, get out now while you still have some self esteem.  Good luck.  Be proactive, not reactive.

I would keep out of it, and keep away from them. It's not your business to manage her. \n\nIs there a boss above your boss? If it becomes an issue in work performance, go to that person or go to HR.

you could talk to your boss and see what she thinks or does ...and if you think shes not taking it seriously  then just ride it out while you look for another job. i had similar circumstances but i talked to the boss and things worked out

oh boy, very common story. If you cannot approach your supervisor, take it to upper management. There are also reference tools such as the internet to help you understand the topic a little better. If you have a very autocratic employer, all you can do is push on through & at your next evaluation, express your concerns with this issue & maybe come up with some solutions. Chances are there are more people you work with who have this problem, start a conversation around the water cooler, so to speak, see what you can come up with collectively to combat the situation.

Set the mf up.  Make up something outrageous and when your boss asks you about it just laugh it off.  Keep doing that and he/she will either stop or get fired.

Tell your new boss you have to finish out your time because it's the right thing to do.  They should admire you for that.\n\nIf not then tell your old boss that you're going to lose the other job and that you are sorry to let the down.\n\nJust be honest.  Don't look for excuses or sneaky ways to get out of it.

You cant tell your boss to do anything,thats why they are the boss ,to tell you what to do.\nIf she tried that he would probably sack her.

why dont you try going on your own.  do you have a contract with your boss.  i would "suggest" to him/her that you are going on your own and may "borrow" some of his clients cause you can do things cheaper and better.  then tell him you wont quit for the bonuses back.  or you could try to get your boss to increase commission on sales and rentals to cover the loss of your bonuses.  its time to play some hardball.  whats the worse that could happen.  you leave and work for someone else?

OK , the answer would depend on who you are more than who the boss is. It's like saying -  how do I deal with all the people in my life?\nAll of those who enjoy life, relationships with others have first made  \na discovery of themselves - really getting to know themselves(not too many ever do). Then, If you know at heart  that you are an OK person, worthy of love and respect- then you will know that is true of everyone else AND the boss. I wish you well.

Since he's your "new" boss, I'd say take the high road and try to grin and bear it.\n\nGood luck!

Hello....I would meet with the supervisor or boss and talk about it.  Don't leave without being told what approach will be taken so you know where you stand.  On the other hand, have you ever considered working for yourself?  I am going to email you.  Good luck.

I really like my boss alot! He's a good guy and realizes the hard work we all do....but geeze!.....The man is a "know it all" which is very irriating when you know he has no clue what he is talking about but displays that "know it all attitude". On day we were talking about giving birth....and there he was all up in the conversation like he has given birth before or something and telling us how it should be done! LOL!
