Truth is that before I started work, I had this impression of female bosses and it is that they are usually not nice at all. This is judging from peoples experiences. Though so u can imagine my mindset when I started working. I have worked in three organizations before now and I am currently in working in the fourth. So u can trust when I give my own statistics.
From my first experience, I had a man as my boss so I wasn’t surprised he turned out to be nice all through my stay.
My second place of work presented me with the first opportunity of having a female boss who turned out to be very nice. She took it upon herself to drop me off after the days work every blessed day. Unfortunately, I was transferred to another branch where I had the opportunity of working with the second female boss who wasn’t only nice but who kept you on your toes by making u work and also enjoying every bit of the work. She also was ready to defend u whenever it mattered.
My third place offered me the third opportunity of working with a female boss, but trust me, this time it was far from all I had experienced working under a female boss as my boss in this place was not nice at all. She snaps at any given opportunity, was hostile and very touchy, funny enough she doesn’t speak good English. To make matters worse, she made me do menial jobs like washing of plates whenever the board just finished a meeting {it was a manufacturing industry}.After a month, I had to leave as I couldn’t stand her anymore. Did someone say ‘typical of female bosses?’
My fourth place which is where I am currently working, I want to believe God actually has compensated me for all the troubles I went through with my last female boss. Lest I forget, I am currently working under the fourth female boss and to say she is down to earth is an understatement. I can go on and on about how nice she is and how wonderful she makes me feel every single day. She not only defends me but she also told me she has taken me as her sister and trust me, her actions do not in anyway contradict her words.
The truth is that she has never complained or scolded me not even for once for whatever mistake I make no matter how silly it is and she is ever willing to assist me no matter the the magnitude or complexity of what I have at hand is. To crown it all up, she checks on me almost every 30mins to know if I am okay and she ensures I finish my work as soon as I can even offering to help me whenever ive got so much to do. There are even times she would not ask from me and would just go ahead and help me finish up my work so I can close early. She would also call me whenever she gets home to know f I am at home and okay. Really she has just been so FANTASTIQUE and can't be more grateful to God for blessing me with a guardian Angel that my female boss has turned out to be.
Can you share your experience? Have u been fortunate with your female bosses or have they turned out to be a pain in the neck? please let me know as your contribution will be highly appreciated.

Some women and their wahala.
some are simply proud, others lack good manners, others are only God knows what. . . cnt tell.
I won't say am "very" nice to my subordinates, but i surely won't put any in trouble in case u refuse to do what u're suppose to do or didn't finish at the expected time. My boss is always looking up to me so it's my duty to help out or find a way of finishing a given task on time.
I don't easily make friends thou and i aint the zig-zag faced type either. . . . little quick smile and we're back to business. I hate to make people feel uneasy in my presence so i make sure u're at ease and also open to me.
Early in the mornings; good morning, how u doing? and that's all. I sometimes eavesdrop their conversation and i must say av never heard anything bad said about me.
Am not too strict n neither am i too open(like best friends) to them. . . we're simply normal. Av never had a female boss.
@Poster.
I thank God for your "guardian" angel kind of boss.

Different strokes for different folks! Well, once worked as a consultant under a much younger lady. She pissed me off, and being a non-shit taker, I bagged off without my pay to make her happy. However, my boss presently is a young lady with a group of company. A very wonderful lady in her early thirties. She's much of a sister to all her staff than a boss. On Valentine day, she called we guys and like; "Who are ur vals? u better go out there and flex a little!". Some ladies can be difficult anyway, but not the Efuah kind of lady.  |
