Lousy Boss

Everybody can be a boss but not everybody knows how to be a boss. I have come across some bosses that don’t really know how to be a boss.

These bosses don’t have clear direction, thousand minds, keep information secretive, fussy over small matters, always last minutes, not punctual to appointment, no confident, stingy and etc. They tend to be very friendly to you before you join and they even promise heaven and earth to you but after you join them will be a different story. The worst part is, they will just simply use their authority as a boss to instruct the staff to do somethings that are beyond their job function.

Over the years, I used to work under few lady bosses. I thought that lady boss is difficult to deal with because they are fussy, moody and calculative. Until recently then only I discovered, sometimes a male boss can be even worst than a lady boss.

We cannot choose the boss but we can choose the company. My advice for the youngster is, don’t ever go for those small company especially those “China man” company that are running like family business, because your future is not guarantee! They will only treat you as “family member” when they need you to contribute, however, the benefits will always go to the “real” family member. Think wise, act wise!
