Another controversial topic I have been pondering over for sometime, which sometimes put me in a state of panic since we don’t know where we will end up for employment.

Has anyone watch the movie “The Devil Wears Prada is a 2006 comedy-drama film based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel of the same name. This screen adaptation stars Anne Hathaway as Andrea Sachs, a college graduate who goes to New York City and lands a job as a co-assistant to powerful fashion magazine editor Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep.” This movie sends shivers down my spine, should i be afraid of all women bosses, are they slave drivers, do they even have any feelings at all in their well dressed bodies?

This also apply to the Men, I’ve heard stories of how the male bosses treat members of their staffs regardless of their gender, making them feel as if they are inferior to them because of the positions they hold, pushing them to breaking point, setting targets that are impossible to be met.

All this been said, are all what I heard and saw in a movie enough for me to conclude, I’ll say NO..there is a mix feeling out there. Some women/men categorically said they would prefer to work for a male boss instead of a women while some men/women said they would rather work for a woman than a man.

This hasn’t put my mind at rest one bit, the best way forward in this situation is to have a first hand experience which would enable us to decide whether we prefer a male or a female as a boss.

Would love to hear your opinion or experiences .

if you are applying to a teaching position and a woman is the boss, pls go and borrow usain bolt boot and run for your life.

Generally, female bosses do have this pride they use in victimizing those juniors working with them. they dont see it that you are working with them, they see it that you are working for them.
And the last time i checked most dont have a happy home(family) if at all they are married.

Men are not left out as well but its sometimes easy to sort yourself out in the case of a man than a woman.

I think as a guy i will prefer a male boss.

It should be easier to create a good "work relationship" with my boss if he is male.

Besides, women tend to "over do it" when they are in a position that command respect and authority.
