My boss recently returned from medical leave for 6 months. While he was gone I did his job, and now he's a raging jerk and trying to make me look bad in front of his boss. Like I didn't know what I was doing! Not everything was perfect, but I got along without him, and I don't appreciate him now acting like I screwed everything up or that if he was here it would've been much better. How should I react?

ask his boss if he had any problems with what you had to do
during the time he was gone!
if you think you did better than your boss ask his boss to check both of yall`s work!
who knows maybe a new job for ya!
on the other hand you could be fired....so think whats best for you!
if you think your boss is being rediculous maybe talk to his boss but beware of consquences!
tell him your being treated unfairly!

Hi,
there's a really bad situation.
Eveyone has different situations and our behaviour should be an expression of this enviroment.
I'd suggest you to:
1: Choose Your Fight-Back Strategy Based on Patterns of Behavior, Not Incidents.
The best way to deal with a bad boss is to get inside that boss's head and figure out what he or she is gaining from misconduct and inappropriate behavior.

2: Write a Letter of Complaint to Your Boss
Written charges are powerful and they are a useful tool for non-aggressive people to use

3: Get It in Writing
If your boss refuses to provide a documented authorization for anything he or she asks you to do, then you are not obligated to do it. You cannot be charged with not following orders if those orders are not written in your job description or in another formal document.

4: Build a Counter-Case
Your boss starts having frequent talks with you about your performance. He thinks it's lacking. He scrutinizes all your work, looking for the slightest thing to criticize. Have it all filed and ask support from HR

5: Do Not Sign
If your boss or any representative of your employer ever asks you to sign a document that accuses you of having done something inappropriate, do not sign it.

6: Bosses Disagree? Not Your Problem!
You might have a good boss who reports to a bad boss—it happens a lot in hierarchies. So what do you do if your boss's boss tries to give you orders that conflict with your direct boss's instructions. Put it in writing!

7: Get Even by Doing Your Job
Do your job…and nothing but your job! Your salary is based on the level of responsibility outlined in your job description. Start doing only what it says—nothing more. When your boss asks you to do parts of his job, tell him (in a written memo) that you don’t have time because doing those tasks would take time away from your job and cause you to miss your objectives.

8: Don't Get Sidetracked
When your bad boss badgers you about your performance, telling you that you're doing a bad job when you know you're doing a good job, your bad boss is likely to get tangled up in her or his web of lies. To get out of that web, your bad boss may try to sidetrack you by comparing you to other people, saying things like:

"Why is it that you're the only one who seems to be having this problem with me?"

The most important is dont tolerate any sort of emotional violence. This is harassment and should be report to the HR department.

Good Luck
Lucio

Put in for a transfer to another position in your company. If not take a leave for stress and look for other work.
