TheElectricCompany Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 (edited) I wouldn't say I was ever afraid of a boss, but one guy in particular created an environment where you needed to walk on eggshells, but when a conversation would turn awkward, the old "I'm just kidding!" trump card came out. Guy was a nut, I think he genuinely loved firing people. Â Pretty much this: Edited June 20, 2017 by TheElectricCompany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

/dev/null Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 No but I get the feeling that I put the fear of jeebus into some the recent snowflake hires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 No. I had a boss who tried to intimidate me. He actually threatened to beat me up in front of thirty other people. Given that I'm 6'4" and at the time was a fit 250, I just laughed. Â And yes, he was gone within 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I've had the passive/aggressive types who thought that if they occasionally praised you it made up for being miserable pricks the rest of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUFFALOKIE Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Mu boss's boss, senior director of engineering is a really great guy, but his nickname is the little general. Honestly, always the smartest person in the room. I fear debating that man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mead107 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Never been afraid of any boss or manager. It is a little different for me being in the union. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murica Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Nope, if a boss was trying to do that in the place I'm employed at they would be fired or reprimanded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 In my mind, you're not afraid of the boss. But you may be afraid of the bully who could cause you to lose your job and the ability to pay for the roof over your head, your children's food, etc. That type of boss.....should never be a boss.
