How to Deal With an Awful Boss
Sometimes, all it takes to make you downright miserable at work is one awful boss.
A boss who holds employees to a high standard isn't necessarily awful. Nor is a boss who isn't shy about offering criticism that's actually constructive.
So what does make a boss awful? If yours is egotistical, refuses to listen, uses derogatory language, or makes unreasonable demands, then you have it pretty bad. The same holds true if your boss is never satisfied with your performance, or anyone else's for that matter, yet fails to offer one useful piece of advice on how to improve.
