Always finds only faults, never gives praise for work well done, jealous, angry and an unhappy man

If you are able to talk to him, try this first. Speak in terms of feelings so that he doesn't feel like you're blaming him. Say "When you _____, I feel _____ ". If you are not able to talk to your boss, go through the chain of command set forth in your company's policy. There should be someone in HR or some department who can intervene. If the abuse is affecting your life outside of work, then you may need to evaluate the worth of this job. Only you can decide if the benefits of staying outweigh the pain and humiliation that you must put up with at work.

Finding another job might sound good, but sometimes the grass isn't greener on the other side (think about having an even WORSE boss than the one you have now!!)
As a former manager (yes, I was one of those creepy managers), I would suggest writing down all of your concerns, sticking to the facts and not getting too personal. Next to the concerns, you could identify possible resolutions. Sit down with your boss and have a heart to heart with him. If you're honest, and come from a standpoint that you want to help and make things better, he will probably be open-minded. Also, make sure you understand the expectations of your position, and ALWAYS track your progress (don't leave it up to someone else).
Good luck!

It sounds like this man has some major issues. Im going to tell you what i'm sure a lot of people will say, get a new job. When you quit, try telling your boss your reason for leaving. Do it in a mature way, but don't hold back. Tell him how terrible he is. If you don't feel like you can do that, write it down and give it to him. Your criticism has to be proffesional and straight forward. This won't help you any, but maybe it will change him enough that he will start to treat his remaining employees with respect.

You'll never last long in that place, believe me, I know, it dosn't matter how hard you work or what you do.
So given that, the best thing to do is to start looking for a job and at the same time put your foot down and tell him what you really think.
WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO LOSE???
Some people actually react well to being told off from time to time
little weird but true

If he is the owner of the company forget it. Otherwise have a talk with his boss though you will taking a chance there (have you resume ready). Otherwise change jobs or departments.
I had a boss like that.

how bad do you need this job? do you get a paycheck every week?. is everyone there at the job doing the man job or just hanging around? being a boss is hard.. try to strike up a conversation with him ...get to know him other than in this position. he'll open up.

Look for a new job. There's nothing else you can except tolerate it. Talking to him about it will only make him angry and if he's really a sleeze, then he'll just seek retribution.
