my own is worse, this woman am working with will insult me from morning till evening , she will say am lousy ,am this am that, come to think of it this is one of the reputable oil and gas company and all of us including her begged to apply, this woman will call me at home once the management are on her head and start blaming me for her mistakes, on tuesday she made me to cry infront of my kids laying abuses on me for her own mistakes. i wish God can just provide another job for me so that i can take walk immediately, becos the whole thing is telling on me. she will tell me that no one is indisposable that she can sack me but one thing she dosent know is that her sack is not putting fear on me. she made me hate muslims be she covers herself from hair to toe but equity and fairness is far from her dictionary, i have other people in my department but they are all muslims except me. the day they changed my former boss and brought her to texaco i was happy but barely few months she started showing me her stuff forgeting that no office is permanent, the only permanent thing in this life is death

Guy your own is even better, imagine today my ma'am in the office told me that I'm brain dead 'cos it's just 0.01% of the large transactions that were wrong coming from another person's input which affected my work. I'm preparing seriously to leave and I've gone as far as marking the day I'll leave on the calendar.

A lot of people forget no condition is permanent. Some1 who is your boss today, maybe your employee tomorrow, so when your boss is being mean to you fantasize about that

Peaches90: I once worked @ a company in Surulere, I've never met a more horrible person than the 'CEO'---Adebo.

He comes to the office and use swear words on his employees- words like 'In ur f**king family', Can u f**king tell me what you've been trying to do E.t.C and to think that he insults u without paying u!(He still owes me 450k till date...though he claimed it wasnt as much as that.

He has a way of bringing down ur morale anytym he wants. He keeps saying that there are over 5 million unemployed grads on d street- cant remember his exact figure now. He's had well over 20 people, if not more, sacked in less thatn 24 months. He's also in d habit of requesting for corpers and would ask them to leave before the end of their service year! He's had issues with virtually all d corpers posted to his office and i wonder why they keep giving him corpers. This guy told about 6 of us to go, that he wanted to shut down his company cos he wasnt making money (and he told sum other people that we had the guts to ask him for our outstanding salaries, that he was goin to see how we would get other jobs and ask to be paid, when He locks up!)...
Well, i got another job almost 1 week later- a verrry good one at that and almost sued him for not paying my salaries buh decided against it cos he is TROUBLE and i dont want to descend to his level cos he has soo many court cases, that his name is well known in the court in his vicinity.
He's always in one scandal or the other

Hahaha, hmmm. Thank God for you! Most times we keep ourselves stuck in a spot because we are scared, if you hadn't been pushed out, you would not have seen how much more embraced a better opportunity.

Wow! All θf the threads made me realise that the topic is a very severe issue! I mean, employees are not some bunch θf insignificant slaves been done a favor, employees offer valuable services that is why they were hired in the first place!

Seriously now, how can we solve this demoralizing issue?

I also want to suggest that if you are not ready to loose your job, please DO NOT post the names θf your abusive bosses or the company as they may just stumble on your post and the consequence may be one you aren't prepared for.

please let's talk suggestions on how we can deal with these bosses!!! Anything other than "stay calm and bear, or quit and be your own boss", will suffice.
Cheers.

12 years ago I worked as an associate for some big money boys in v.I, one of them was so proud and abusive, having no regard for etiquettes, or work place principles, I remember how he deducted my salary 4 6 months to buy another laptop that was damaged, his reason was that I was the last to use the laptop, today d same guy always patronising and lobbying in my office 4 contracts cos I got an appointment with state govt.

fxtimi: I have a boss from hell too. She owes us salaries like its nothing,still has the effrontery to insult at will and flaunts her supposed wealth in our face(where's the wealth when she owe everyone?). For her,no crude stuff like "in your family do people blablabla" or f bombs. She will say some things that will leave you in no doubt that you're being put down e.g. "I believe that logic is one of the first things they teach you in primary school, what primary school did you attend by the way?" and some other crazy stuff. She not only owes salaries but owes banks and our vendors as well.
Her belief is that if you cant take her crap and go else where, you're gonna need a letter of recommendation and she won't give you a favourable one, so everyone just takes it till they get something better. Everyone knows her in the marketing research sector(Aderoju).
No wonder she's a single,old, fat and ugly like a muthafu grin
I surely know who you are talking about, let me give u a clue, your office is at Ikeja... Right?

I totally understand your plight! Please be very careful not to be like the sponge, soaking in every vile word hurled at you. While you are still there, always be on the look out for other opportunities and do not hesitate to take off once you get the chance! Even the bible warns us about been closely associated with ill tempered people lest we become like them! People like that will rip off your esteem and turn you into a pitiful being with no sense θf worth without your knowing. So please guard your heart.
Cheers.

Hmm,I thought I was the only one that experienced this mental abuse from a superior.

Like a wise woman once told me,the adversity of a superior towards your work performance will only strengthen your desire to be prosperous and reach greater heights.Just tell yourself its time to move on and you'll be amazed at the fantastic opportunities out there.

Damn the unknown and take a bold leap of faith.
