I am a very honest and driven person. I think this makes me good at what I do for a living. Even so I have a boss that micromanages me and takes credit for my work. She also belittles me even though I have an amazing track record at managing people and I have the numbers to prove it. I guess my question is how do you deal with a dishonorable boss who finds little things wrong and makes your life miserable? I love my job just not my boss.

She is always talking behind my back that I'm not doing a good job and she will belittle me in front of others even though I'm one of the nicest; hardest workers in the department. It honestly sounds to me that your boss is clearly jealous of you; and maybe even a little bit threatened by you. My advice to you is; although it may be hard the best thing to do is to ignore it. Your boss is probably just unhappy with her job and probably her life in general. Picking on you is probably her way of letting of steam. Try not to take it personally either. Another thing I do is to go in and ALWAYS be pleasant to her and the other employers when she is around. Even on days when she is clearly being a bitch or is in a pissy mood I will be nice and have a positive attitude. It is my way of showing to her and everyone else that I'm not going to get me down. AND; if things really get bad- you could always go to her superior and let them know what is going on. [ buzzie's advice column | Ask buzzie A Question ]
