That only works with supervisors - sometimes. My problem is that i can't go to anyone in a higher position. My boss is the boss, and unfortunately, the last and final word as he is also the owner/CEO of the company. He Jekyl & Hydes too, and that is a real challenge to stomach. You never know which boss you will be getting, Kind of like having an alcoholic parent ;)

One has to leave. The jerk will only learn his lesson when he's writhing in agony, burning in a fire hotter than any flame known to man, while his own personally assigned worm crawls in and out of his eyes for all eternity "where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched".

What happens when your boss is the supervisor of human resources and they want you to get involved in the personal lives of your co-workers? My boss isn't questioning my work; it's the getting involved in people's personal lives that she's using against me which isn't in my job description. She obsessed with it and yet won't offer me any help in that area.

These are good points however, keep in mind if you have to go up higher it may mean your job if the higher up sides with your boss for a lack of evidence. Don't expect employees to put themselves on the line for your cause. You are alone. Document your meetings with your boss and cover specific solutions. use this to show that the boss didn't implement them. Have an out if your effort fails. Keep it professional not a personal attack. Stick to the FACTS. Eluminate the problem.

Bottom line, we need to be smarter than the boss to be abel to deal with him. Very funny; specially when they don't like nobody smarter than them!!!!
