You can either resign or stand up to him/her.

I almost did the former, then I made a U-turn and did the latter. It was a memorable day at work. He just kept looking at me, everybody left the unit for two of is that day. He was replying and I was giving him back immediately. Then I told him to give me the query, e no go pass am.

He never did.

@OP why not strategies on " HOW TO BE YOUR OWN BOSS"! Stop wasting your time on trying to comprehend or cope with your boss rather direct your energy on how to position yourself to become a Boss.

Having same issue with my boss she doesn't wanna hear you but there's one thing I have come to realize, and it's working for me.
1. I don't always want to express my self so I am just yes sir and yes ma
2. The moment you realize your opinion doesn't count to this kind of bosses the better for you cus if you are so intelligent you wouldn't be working for them you should probably be running your own company
3. Always be bold to speak when he wants you to with enough sir and ma at the end of each sentence.
4. Never you get close whenever they are pissed even if you have a report, just text them or leave it on there table
5. Lastly, always concentrate on your job and be professional don't try creating unnecessary bond for friendship cus it will never happen, these will keep them wondering what kind of human are you.

Note: all these stated above are if you dey chop wella from them ohh or your pay make sense no be for people way dey collect peanuts...

If the pay is ok, then manage him like that. General Abdusalam once told Abacha you can never be wrong sir, even if you're wrong, you're right, he ended up succeeding him as president.

Just answer him yes sir, and do whatever he tells you to do, whether you agree with his idea of not, just do it. After all you're not living under the same roof, so why are you complaining?

If both of you don't reach a common ground I see you loosing your job, and considering the millions of graduates in the employment market, I see you struggling to make ends meet.

This I have seen.

If there is lockdown and insecurity and your boss says you should meet him in person but you prefer zoom, how would you handle this?

I think the best thing to do is knowing what gets him/her angry and abstaining from them

Just out of curiousity,
How do you know what gets him angry?

Kidnap his son, then command him to stop being unsatisfied at work. Release his child but tell him to start being good ... good and polite to his workers or next time you would not release the child

Had the same issue with one idiot I worked with. I kept sucking it up till I got a job. He started acting cool when I got a new job and submitted my resignation letter. On my last day the idiot wanted to act same way like he always did, I talked him down and left the office.

Most of these type of bosses suffer inferiority complex and depression but put on strong man behavior to cover it up. Your mental health is a priority bro.

Don't reply him, just do your job with integrity. Greet him when he is close to you not when he is far or you going to meet him to do eye service. See how he will respect you

Davidski:
Get to know his/her Do's & Don't.

Get all your assigned work done to avoid loopholes on your part.

Learn to listen more and talkless.

Lastly, Learn to mind your own business.

Bro, bosses don't like you responding when they are angry.

The best response is say nothing. Just make sure u do your work as he ask you to. Mind you, they are also hardly satisfied.
Exactly!! I had one like that in my former place of work. Had to quit.

All of you should come together and tender your resignation letter same day. If he tries to select those to recall, insist that since you all decided to resign together, all of you must be recalled together.

What if they are leaving under the same roof - as in the boss provides accommodation?

Someone would tip “Boss” off
Someone would love to play a “take advantage of the situation “ game.

who’s gonna feed
“you all?”

What i mean is, you do not know the other person’s savings balance..
All man for himself.
