What do i do about my boss?

Question

I have this boss who's not very easy to work for. I think he feels since we've been friends for so long he can talk to me anyway he wants. He also knows my husband and my family. He's like a family member. But when he gets in his moods he seems to take it out on me tells me that it's not working out with working together. He like takes our personel life and brings it to work then he says he's going to let me go, then he says he was just thinking crazy. I'm like stop and go stop and go, i don't know if i should look for work or stick with this job; what should i do?

Answer 1

First, I think you can benefit from looking at it this way. If he really is so comfortable with you- like family- then that gives you the right and privelege of being a little testy yourself! He doesn't want to lose you! You are too familiar and valuable. Just laugh it of and don't take it serious- or you can respond in kind and see how shocked he'll be that he is too afraid to do anything about it for fear of losing you.

Answer 2

If u can find a better job then do so if not talk to your boss and let him know that u don't like the way he treats u sometimes and if this behavior continues u will seek legal action against him for creating a hostile working environment

Answer 3

Document everything and bring it to the BIG bosses attention....or go find another job, it is never a good idea to work with a friend!

Answer 4

Look for another job if possible. You spend way too much time at work to be miserable. Plus - if you know him outside of work, entirely too much of your day is spent in confusion.
