20 Times Employees Exposed Horrible Bosses You’d Never Want to Work For

Not everyone is lucky enough to have a perfect boss who is so encouraging and understanding that you feel highly motivated to go to work every day. Most of you might not have hit the jackpot and ended up in situations that have tested your patience at the workplace. Here are 20 situations in which people have exposed their bosses in unique ways for their terrible attitudes.

1. “Put in my notice because my boss asked me if I could change the day I put my dog to sleep.”

2. “My boss, who knows my ADHD, showed me this abandoned cellar at work, and said, ’Explore it for me.’”

3. “Today, I fainted before work from dehydration and wasn’t able to use my phone until I got to the hospital and woke up. My boss is really upset and I’m super stressed about it.”

4.

5. “I work at a small coffee shop. My boss just absent-mindedly poured unroasted beans into a batch of roasted ones. Here’s us separating 10,000 beans... by hand.”

6. “I finally decided I’d had enough of my boss on Monday. And man, did it feel good!”

7.

8. “One of a seemingly endless series of unreasonable notes left by my boss.”

9.

11. “This structural pole my boss refuses to fix.”

12.

13. “2 weeks of telling my boss the produce in the warehouse is going bad. He said, ’Don’t worry about it.’”

14.

15. “My old boss took 10 days off and put this on her chair. In order to access her computer to cover her work while she was gone, we had to stand or bring in another chair. She would rewatch the camera recordings at 6x speed to see if anyone had touched it.”

16. “I’m still in shock.”

17. “My boss told me to at least try shoveling my car out and come in today. The red one is mine.”

18. “I walked to work in a thunderstorm, but my boss forgot to tell me we all have today off.”

19. “My boss gave me these gloves for welding after my old ones burned. I asked him for new ones.”

20.

’’I was 18 or 19, working my first job. He criticized my lipstick, saying that it was an ugly color, and recommending that I wore bright red lips to go with my bright red uniform shirt. He didn’t like my choice of all-black shoes. He didn’t like how I mopped the floor, taking the mop from me to show me how to ’properly’ do it. He even told one of my coworkers that she couldn’t wear a sports bra under her uniform. I quit a few days later.’’ © RegularEvening / Reddit
