ive worked in the same restaurant for 5 yrs. My boss is crazy, bi-polar, a drunk and dabbles in coke. I have partied with him and we have a rapport. He has shown me disrespect in the past, and especially today. Im so fired up that i want to get at him somehow. Ive seen him demean so many employees and managers over the years its disgusting.
Hes not just your average ****** boss, though im sure it sounds like it. I dont have the energy/patience/desire to get real detailed.
So if i called HR and snitched him out for all i know, would it be worth it, would i feel good? I dont believe in ratting and mama says no one likes a tattle-tale, but im very tempted. Why should this douche-bag get to treat everyone around him like dirt and get away with being a gross excuse for a decent human?? this guy hates his own kids, for chrissakes....

You should consider snitching. But be careful that he has no dirt on you . Restaurants are notorious for this kind of manager. Keep your business to your self if you do snitch and don't tell others.
If you do go to HR with your complaints and nothing to your standard is done, consider looking for a new job, who wants to work for a company that will keep MGR'S like that around! Good Luck.

If you do go to HR and "snitch" on your boss, how can you prove that the dirt is true? Would you be able to be anonymous? If so, go for it. I'd just be worried about him finding out that you were the one trying to get him in trouble and then he'd make your life at work even more terrible.
I totally believe that this guy is an awful person and boss. If you can prove this to someone in HR, do it, because no one needs to wake up every morning dreading going to work, unless they bring it upon themselves. Good luck!

Let's separate personal feeling from business ethics, shall we? You can loathe someone and still work for them, or even respect their professional knowledge. However, this guy sounds like he may be violating company policies/ethics if he's partying during business hours and/or harassing his employees.
If you decide to complain, you need to make sure you are voicing your concerns in terms of how his behavior affects the business and your work performance, not in terms of what kind of an a*hole you think he is or how he feels about his kids. You also need to realize that there may be repurcussions to your complaint - whether it is being called as a witness in a harassment case, or whether he decides to rachet up his obnoxious behavior further.

So, you've acted like a friend to this guy, partied right along side him, and now you're angry and want to rat him out for things that you did too. All because now his bad personality traits are causing you trouble instead of someone else. You two deserve each other. If you rat him out, that earns you protection under the law from any type of retalitory action. So if he's giving you trouble, you better rat him out and save your job. They can't fire you because you could sue and win by saying they were retaliating for whistle-blowing. Free money for bad behavior, the new american way.

I wouldn't do anything until you're ready to leave the company. You can have a talk with HR, but from experience, I'd say that he'll probably hear about it from office gossip.
I had a supervisor who was really awful. I would have to hear about his sexual conquests all the time, in very graphic detail. I went and told HR about how I didn't like his attitude and the way he talked when he was around my desk, and HR gave him a lecture about his behaviour. Then he just asked around and found out that I was the one who had talked to HR and he treated me like crap until he left to go to another company a few months later.

I would just try to use his past record as an incentive for him to give you a raise, better hours, better days, or something... go up to him and be like I really need so and so days off, more money etc, or kindagive threatening hints that you have been in contact with HR lately and they have been asking you questions regarding his behavior at work and outside of it- then act like his buddy and be like I came to you first-before I told them anything- kinda like I scratch your back and you scratch mine kinda deal- just give him a good mind fing and he can be turned into an asset for you.

Leave the poor slob alone. He will get his in due time. People like that f*ck up all the time and in the end, they pay the price. You don't want to be the reason he looses his job and cannot feed his kids, then he goes out and blows his brains out. Do you want that on your conscience?

Whatever dirt you got on him, spill your guts! If he has disrespected you in the past, go for what you know! Who gives a flying f--k about the tattletale rule? I sure as hell don't! If he does wrong, he deserves to be punished for it. There's no question about it!
