This is the first company that I ever worked for that I had a boss that steals my ideas and lies constantly! My boss always invites me to lunch were he likes to talk about work and pick my brain. After a few luncheons I realized that any suggestions and ideas that I would give him he would use in the office and take credit for it!!! Not only that I have caught him in quite a few lies bold faced ones and he spends more time walking around the office bragging about his past accomplishments and who he knows then he does working . On top of all this I was due up for my yearly review and he keeps putting it off. I have approached him twice about it and he I guess you could say he "sticks a pacifier in my mouth" by saying I will make time for your review and never does. Even though I am extremely frustrated and irritated I like the work I do and the company but I can not stand him as my boss. What can I do and approaching his boss in not an option. Help!!!

Don't give any more ideas. If you have to go to luncheons then if he asks you something, pretend like you don't have any ideas and say "What is your opinion/idea?" to get him talk, and just keep nodding to everything he says.
For the yearly review, pick up a date and time and ask your boss if that is a good time to for him to meet. If he says no, then make him choose the date and time there!

Quit having lunch with this jerk, he's not a friend, he's hired to BE your boss, and he'll do what everr it takes to make himself look big!!
