An attorney I worked for. He fired me for "missing too much time" because I had breast cancer which included 3 surgeries and a 3 day hospitalization for pleurosy caused by radiation. He was an A***. Thing is.....I was pretty good at my job too-- but I'll never work for another attorney again. He wouldn't even give me a letter of recommendation as he thought he may have gotten in trouble for firing me if he did. Poor him, huh? We lost our home!!!!

My worst boss was my new boss from my government job, and I was a permanent employee. I had worked there for yearssss, and I missed my job. She (the boss) called me in her office 2 times a week, so she can write me for stuff I had never done. She has been constantly harrassing me with pride. In addition, she discriminated against me because of my disability, which is illegal by law. The government don't give a d@mn. I reported her in to the top boss. He looked at me, and deny. I put up with her for a year, but due to a personal crisis, I had no choice but to quit.
My lawyers told me to stay, but my long-time partner has pass away. I was not able think logically. I had been told to go back to work, knowingly that she is going to continue to write me up to get me fire on false acusations. The Union did not help me, they were a piece of shiit.
As a result, I am currently looking for a job, and I am praying that I can survive financely. While she and the top boss still have their jobs.
The advice my lawyers had told me is to stay away from all Asians bosses, especially the females from Hong Kong, Vietenam, Phillipine, or Thailand.

When I first went to live on my own , I had just turned 18, and really needed a job nights while I took business classes during the day. Young girl alone in a big city, no work experience.
I got a job in a nasty little restaurant withe a big fat greasy boss, every time I had to get behind the counter, he would try to squeeze him self by and rub all over my butt. I tried to avoid him, but then he would slide across behind me and cop a feel. By the end of the week, I couldn't handle it any more and smacked him in his big greasy face. He told me to get out and if I wanted any pay, he'd say I stole from him. Got pretty hungry there for a while.
Big lesson for me, look for work in better places!

Mike Wightman of Geoview, Inc. I got hired for a project which they did not even have the contract for, I could never make the guy happy no matter what I did, and was ultimately "let go", to use his words, because his nephew needed a job.
Worst Boss Ever!

Anna Sui. Seriously folks, this lady is the AntiChrist. I had never seen her smile (not even for her interviews with MTV), and her hobby is yelling at her employees. I used to work in her showroom... I once sewed a button on incorrectly, and she flipped out completely - walking around the room screaming bloody murder at the top of her lungs. If someone is in a bad mood like 110% of the time - isn't that a disorder or something?

The worst boss I ever had sexually harassed me, harassed me by phone, stalked me, left notes in my car, ect.... I ended up suing and won. I really didn't care if I won or not. I wanted him to know women don't have to put up with that kind of crap and what a sick b*****d he was. I would also hope it makes him think twice before trying it on some other woman.

A guy name Maurice K. He would fire the secretary just because he got bored with the old one and wanted to see a new face in the office.
He would sell software that didnt exist yet, then expect me to work overtime creating it so it could ship by the promised date.

A guy named Leonard, when I was 18 he pinched in on the rear and I knock him out cold with a 66 dodge tail light, needless to say I got fired. Yep before sexual harassment was even heard of.

A woman who would give me instructions on a project, but later would be drunk and scream at me for not doing it right or say that she didn't tell me to do it in the first place. I could actually smell the beer on her breath! Finally, I told her I was reporting her for being drunk and she ran to her car and drove away as the administrator was walking towards her car. What a mess!
She was later sent to rehab...
