Career / Re: Women Bosses And Their Women Problem by seylex(m): 7:07am On May 26, 2016
hello guys, I'm really amazed at the response on this thread. truth be told, I've met a whole lot of wonderful women, mothers, mentors who people aspire to be. however there are these really obnoxious ones.

The disclaimer still stands irrespective of peoples opinion, this is not a gender issue, the topic was just meant to catch attention, there are bad men bosses too.

This thread has been really therapeutic for me as I wrote the piece out of frustration and its good to know that I'm not alone in this. I have taken the good advice of well meaning people, and I have learnt in the process as well.

Thank you for the contributions.

cheers.
Career / Women Bosses And Their Women Problem by seylex(m): 2:20pm On May 23, 2016
this happen to be my first female boss, and just 2 months of working together she is so typical of those ive read about. these are a few of their realities.
disclaimer - this is not representative of all women just the type of my boss.

a little background.
I was employed as a marketing and business development manager for a new product. she was not in the country during the recruitment exercise-out of the country) so she didn't know me from adam. Ive heard a lot of stories of how she was very insensitive, bossy and a control freak an admin officer with priviledge information said i was employed because of my calmness during the interview to cancel out her aggressive character. well i kept an open mind, however upon her arrival our first meeting betrayed her so much as she felt she was not in control of my person. just a month to the job i already had proposals on ground that will restructure the company and re-position it for the market. well since then its been a tug of war between us both.

All my requests and moves were rebuffed, all support was literally non existent. well marketing happens to be a cost centre in itself, sales brings in the money. many dont know the difference though including my boss. i managed the two role independently despite all the challenges, but we are yet to make sales.

she pretends as if she doesnt know why we are not making sales. and shes using that as a pedestal to victimize me. she copies the HR on unnecessary issues and quite frankly its frustrating.

well after all these i had to understand her and why we may never gel -

1. women bosses are arrogant
2. they always want to be in control
3. they are mostly lazy themselves
4. they are mostly insecure

at least my boss is all the above and more.

well, she wants me to lick her a**, but Im never doing all of that. I know over time we may blend but for now its so annoying. i feel like leaving already. Guys with experience should please give honest advise to a distressed worker.
