Thus, the saying is true- “Change starts from you”. (Change of environment/ work). There’s no point arguing or reasoning with someone who is biased and unwilling to admit their own fault/ arrogant.

Not always, there are plenty of ways to catch the boss out if they are really just incompetent. Make sure you are recording everything in e-mail, ensure that you are pro-actively asking for the resources, or training, you need to succeed in your role and ensure that you get a response back via e-mail, even if it's just you replying to your boss to say "Just to confirm, you spoke to me verbally about this and said...", if your boss tries to dissuade you just lightly push back that it's a perfectly reasonable request to have an e-mail communication so you can refer back to it to avoid any confusion or doubt, especially in a busy or chaotic role. In which time any unfair treatment or breaking of agreements, contradictions or other such things can all be documented, just be sure not to make your move until you have amassed enough that puts it beyond all reasonable doubt who is at fault. Sure, HR will always tend to start out favouring management in the interest of doing their job, which is protecting the company, but unless you are particularly high up, your boss is just another employee from the perspective of HR and if said boss is causing the company problems in such a way that could really backfire on them, well, the sooner they get rid of that problem the better, one way or another.

When being taken for granted and being held to a different standard to others then I think its ok to fight back by trying to leave and putting in the least amount of emotional investment as possible. Sometimes a workplace is toxic and so broken you cant fix it. You can make yourself ill by worrying and in this instance just do the least amount of work acceptable and adopt what everyone else does. Bizarrely being a great worker in a broken workplace will get you nothing but hassle and you will get used by doing the work of the sycophants and bad workers and getting zero credit.

Swallowing pride and eating crow is why employment is crap. Playing the game makes you no better than a bad boss. It makes you a coward giving in to bullies.

Just because someone has the boss title. Doesn’t mean that employees have to tolerate discriminatory behavior. Sometimes, you have to call it out. Some bosses tend to bully. When you leave the company, you don’t need his recommendation. Most people asks their boss to help them get a new job. Most bosses are hired because their buddies gave them a job and they have no management skills

Play the game, be a hustler, take everything away from them and leave them zero hands then see the magic happens

I'm not telling people to quit jobs right away if they really need money but if it's something you absolutely can't stand anymore, just call it a day and call your boss an asshole, if you think he/she deserves it, some people need a reality-check sometimes for their brains to work normally. Making a plan for future is fine, but most people don't work for some famous or big corporate, their jobs are easier to find.

I decided I would accept every interview even if I already knew I didn’t want the job, to perfect my interviewing skills and get over myself. Out of 20 or so interviews I got about 5 job offers.

I'm facing the same situation. Already 7 years hanging on. I'm happy you could escape.

I’m a housekeeper for 6 years already and I’m 25. I just blowed up both of two boss today at Marriot telling us housekeepers that were slow but my patience was over today. I feel bad that I’m the only born us citizen and the only one that speak and understand English. They send me home but I know my co workers were happy for me to speak up for them.

I’ve had my share of bad bosses. I imagine there’s a lot of bad ones for a variety of reasons. It took me over 40 years to figure out how to deal with situations and challenges better. Two things have helped me in particular. Acceptance and respecting their position. We’re not going to change them. Most reject the behaviors except that’s not going work. If they’re a snake, treat them like one. Respect them and at the same time don’t show fear or demonstrate being a threat. Instead be an asset to whatever capacity you can be. Imagine you’re working for a different boss, supervisor or another superior if you have to as these things along with defensiveness can become habit forming. Again, respecting their position. You might be wondering how in the world the incompetent, inconsiderate, possibly horrid schmuck/schmucktress even came to hold the position! Truth is there’s lots of incompetence and terrible relating skills in the world. Be a contrast. Be the levelheaded, competent servant. It’s not that what you are experiencing isn’t relevant…it IS. Just understand that people can’t be changed and rarely do. The best way to ride a horse is the direction that it is going. By embracing things as they are, the better we negotiate them. It comes down to responding rationally instead of resisting and reacting. In this way we gain more influence of what we’re confronted. Viewing things from a third person’s perspective like in a movie helps too. You’re a character in the movie and you’re wanting the character to act in it’s best interest making wise choices demonstrating self-discipline and poise however challenging it might be. Emotional maturity. Adeptness at negotiating through conflict. There’s some pretty crappy management out there for sure. Just remember, part of the job title you can attach to yours is expert conflict negotiator. Keep learning in this regard. Ultimately the only thing we can do is adjust, adapt and keep on honing our skills in dealing with the inevitable b.s. in life. There’s plenty of it out there. Few are fortunate to not have to deal with very much of it. Life is hard. Having empathy is helpful as well. As does focusing on one’s breathing. Best to you!

I wish I could copy/paste your comment & hang it up in my office where no one else could see it (but I could, every day!) What you said hit me right btwn the eyes - esp the part about being the wise, competent servant (that part hits biblically too lol) Fortunately, my actual Boss is an incredible person & leader. I continually walk away from every interaction we have truly thankful & amazed by her, both personally AND professionally. She's a fair, trustworthy & excellent leader. HOWEVER, she recently promoted one of my coworkers to Office Lead (who is a nice enough person in her 60s....but is a TERRIBLY passive-aggressive & power-tripping sort of leader who seems to have chosen me as her preferred target.) She is CONSTANTLY doing little things in an attempt to denigrate me and/or elevate herself over me, esp in front of/intentionally within ear shot of other employees in our office (ex. constantly interrupting ONLY ME in meetings, going out of her way to correct me when it's not even necessary or appropriate, seeking me out to give unnecessary extra work/tasks/assignments, stopping me in the middle of the work day....only to loudly order me to do what she can CLEARLY SEE with her own eyes that I'm literally ALREADY DOING whatever it is, finding little reasons to chide/talk down to me in front of other team members, treating me as though I'm incompetent and/or talking down to me in a "mom voice" as though I'm her child/being naughty, etc.). I don't have any issues with her personally........but these behaviors (esp now that she has a role of some authority) are triggering as hell for me personally (as I was raised by an over-bearing, controlling, perpetually-fault-finding & passive-aggressive covert narcissistic mother). While I realize these triggers are neither my new Office Lead's fault nor her responsibility to fix, I am struggling to figure out how to calm my body ITSELF down after each of these little behaviors she does triggers my involuntary biological fight-or-flight response. Once triggered, it makes it nearly impossible to think clearly so I can calmly process & handle the situation right there in the moment & it takes usually anywhere from 1 to 4 hours before my body chemistry has calmed back down again (at least enough to process what happened & figure out how best to respond - as opposed to simply reacting out of the anger/triggering, etc.) I'm old enough to realize that these types of "leaders" are going to be anywhere you go these days; But 💥💥💥HOW💥💥💥 do you actually go about respecting someone's position when that PERSON THEMSELVES doesn't actually DERSERVE your respect (or esp when - as in my new Office Lead's case - they are continually trying to publically coerce and/or extract it from you by force)??? I've had private discussions with this person about the way she treats me/naming & giving examples of these specific behaviors, but it has so far fallen largely on deaf ears (although, she did privately admit to me these behaviors of her's are also a problem in her personal life as well - her kids have the same issues with her treating THEM this way too, apparently). I've tried to give grace & I make it a point to not give any reason for her to feel threatened/provoked (ie. I only give push-back if I've already given grace first & now feel I must respectfully stand my ground when the same behavior has now become a pattern of repeated [esp PUBLIC] boundary violations on her part, etc.) And before you say so, talking to my actual Boss (for all her admirable qualities) did not go well - despite my concerns for our new Office Lead being spoken calmly & intentionally interwoven with grace. My Boss seems unable/unwilling to see her new Office Lead's toxic behavior as the ACTUAL problem, but instead seems to see me having any issue with being TREATED this way as the problem (if that makes sense). I'm at a loss, but your comment gives me hope that maybe you've found the answer to this kind of situation even though I haven't & I'd really like to hear your feedback, if you wouldn't mind... And yes, breathing helps....but only so much. Lol (esp when being repeatedly triggered throughout the work day)

Being empathetic is not agreeing but viewing things from another’s perspective. Breathing techniques are sometimes useful. Be curious about her behavior. Resist reacting through observing and then responding. A little strategic indifference at times. Go to work every day knowing and accepting that some crappy interactions are going to happen AND that it’s going to be a good day anyway regardless what transpires.

My boss told me today to get help from a new recrutee. He did this in front of another co-worker. He always forgets whatever I had done before and undermines my work. He always says that I'm not working enough. I've had enough now. I always respected him and never talked behind his back unlike my co-workers. I always followed his orders. But enough is enough.

Sounds like the perfect opportunity for quiet quitting.

I wish I had known about the 99% rejection rate when I was in finishing school, I literally applied to 200 jobs before I got the job that I got but I always knew that I would never give up until I found one and that's kind of the attitude you need when you want to build a better life is that you just don't give up

@@thatr0ryt133 that is because the boss is insecure. A good boss listens to ideas and is humble by understanding sometimes he/she is wrong. However, these people think that they are weak if they are wrong and want to control everything because of their insecurity.

I work with a Boss who doesn’t want his subordinates to grow. We dont have freedom. Our off days are always compromised. It makes it difficult to even plan outside work. Life feels like a stand still and it’s painful 😓

Sooner or later that boss is going to fall.

On 4/5/23 I lost my job for standing up for someone else when he singled out this specific person In a meeting and when I tried to call him out on that he got angry and fired me he was the most toxic manager I’ve ever had the displeasure of working for I truly hope he gets what he deserves he showed no remorse

There is nothing wrong and nothing more fulfilling than calling up your boss on their B.S. follow by an “I quit” and dropping the mic.

And you know what that might be my next stop here within the next couple of months because this is some bullshit because I have a store manager who is a complete bitch

You put all your energy into finding a new job and put your focus there and keep telling yourself you’re working on it and it will come.

Tmr is my last day , I resigned during my probation from a very difficult boss. It's not easy.

My boss is not bad for the most part, but he is obsessed with tardiness. It’s enough to cause me a lot of anxiety. It’s enough to make me look for a new job.

What if I love my job, but my boss treats me differently from my coworkers in a way that makes me afraid to show up to work? Whenever I make a mistake or misunderstand, my boss complains to me about it, but doesn't give me the opportunity to fix my mistake and I therefore never learn to do it correctly. Sometimes I misunderstand and do something wrong and my boss makes a scene in front of my colleagues. It makes me feel small compared to my coworkers and it's distracting me from being able to perform well throughout the day, so I make even more mistakes. I really want to excel at work and I care a lot about what my position can do for the people in my community, so I don't want to leave, but I'm afraid that maybe it's not worth the treatment. I've been getting fewer hours than my coworker who has the same position as me and even after complaining to HR, nothing has been done about it.

You can raise what's called a grievance if you cannot sort this issue out yourself. Then you can ask someone above your boss to step in. Bottom line is tho people always have personal preference when it comes to who they like. If the grivence doesn't work it would be time to look for a place that values you as an employee good luck! 🙂

I had my share of bad bosses. There are situations where I fought back and some I accepted it. You play the game enough for you to find a better opportunity and leave the current one.

I appreciate this because sometimes it’s about saving yourself

Jordan Peterson is SUCH A GENIUS. I really like listening to this guy.

Started a new job at a bodyshop in a new city Been working at a former shop for 18 years Loved going to work each morning Put in long hours Me and the owner even had a few beers at the end of the day New place The owner for the first few days : Nice amazed at my work Even brought him a few new ideas on tools And ways to speed up production And cut costs Week later him asking me to drop what i was doing on one car And rush on the other Then run back to the other car etc etc Parts falling behind on orders Then him over my shoulder watching what i am doing Seen him yelling at a few others The one day him gathering around the workers Saying we are falling behind Work is not getting done We had a few cars come back When one of the workers said ..I waited a full day for parts even after i had taken the car apart The owner then was triggered and blamed him for the back log You should of got the parts guy to order the parts ..first thing this morning Not at noon..(The guy could not of known what to order till the car was apart And seen the damage ) From now on this is how it is going to be You order Then work on the car You stay untill the job is done Not at 5pm If you don't like that There is the door ...The worker turned and started walking...Anyone else? The painter smiles And starts walking ..Shocked the owner says Ok so tomorrow....I turn and start going to were my coat was hanging No way this owner just had a bad day This place is a rats nest Owner yells out What your leaving to? "Sure If you have the time to be over my shoulder mirco managing You have the time to do it better than i can" I'm saving you money yet again ....In my truck the 17 year old detailer headed to his car lol

Must be a common thing. My panel shop boss was a psychopath/control freak with ocd. I put in 110% as his manager and made him alot of money but nothing was good enough, he took all the credit and told everyone i was stupid. He had me doing 6 different job roles and In the end when i said no to one of his ridiculous ocd fuelled requests he threw a chair at me. I walked but when i went back to talk he turned it on me and told me i had character flaws and should see a psychologist.

God I love Jordan Peterson

What about when you don’t hate the job but want to switch managers? That’s tough

My boss will literally make fun of me for asking a question, when I've only been there for 3 weeks, then turn around and answer the same question from someone who's been there for over a year. Not sure if it's just the new guy hazing or what

I really am disgusted by my bosses actions. She blatantly lied about something ethically important to us at staff meeting. I called her out on a something and found out from upper management that it was a big fat lie. She did get in trouble over this. I am sticking it out. 3 more years until I retire. Not looking for a new job.

as long as you start to take actions your resentment immediatly decease even if you are putting yourslef in a bitter situation.........totally agree!!!!!

The worst is that my boss discriminates against me and others in my team because we suffer from depression. Three years prior, I was hospitalised for depression; however, in 3 years since, I worked hard, won a platinum award for exceptional performance, did work way above my role, and got high praise from other senior managers. Recently, I interviewed for one of 2 roles one level above my current position. Needless to say, I didn't get either. I have 12 years of experience and he chose 2 favorites, very Jnr and nowhere near my skill level. Of course, I am looking for something else. I let his behavior slide but I am laying a grievance against him for discrimination and unfairness. Even if I don't get the outcome I would like, I want to expose him because he plays an excellent political game. Many across the business are shocked I didn't get the promotion because I have a good reputation and brand and I have worked at a higher role size for many years now I also have all the relevant qualifications. I am playing the game as I will not give him a stick to beat me with but I am going to take this fight up through the official channels.

Thank you Jordan Peterson

I just delt with this exact situation a couple of nights ago. My best advice is to get to know people higher up on a personal level whether it's through friends or family. You're better off having a team of your own that can make a change in the workplace. My biggest concern is the leads and supervisors not communicating with their workers. The place that I'm working at now has an area of the factory where they say they don't have to communicate. Well, that could get someone killed and that's also why the turnover rate is so high. The work isn't bad. It's these power tripping leads and supervisors that are the problem. It's a good thing I know people way higher up in this business that can make a real change because these so called leads and supervisors don't care about safety.

He didn't give one inch of advice except to get another job. Fuckin genius.

Unfortunately there isn’t much you can do

A challenge is in the judgement of a higher peace and order that one risks breaking the rules over. Context becomes very critical in these types of conversations and the example that Jordan gives in regards to the sheep is for quick reference yet not so simple. If breaking the "Sabbath" will not lead to more dire or catastrophic results and one is certain of it then saving the sheep is morally permissible IMO. However if one can foresee a series of consequential and undesirable outcomes as a result of breaking the "Sabbath" then the choice is clear as the higher peace and order outweighs the life of the sheep. The dilemma occurs when it is no longer a sheep but a human being and instinctual or impulsive reactions in the moment take over... It's is complicated and limited by the individual's ability to quickly assess, discern, calculate and respond but even then all that is trumped by one's ability to overcome quickly the innate impulse to act.

So glad I found this channel

Peterson's intellect is beyond amazing.

Mr Peterson sir Thank you for being who you are

This is exactly what I needed to hear.

So helpful!

Im a breakfast cook. Ive started this job 3 months ago. The first 2 months were rocky due to personal issues (child custody battle. Child being sick constantly. Etc. . Racked up a few call outs, but nothing major) that being said. Lets go to the past 2 weeks where my attendance has been flawless and ive done everything asked. 2 other cooks are constantly late or just no call no show. Then we had a LINE LEAD quit and walk off mod shift, to which he recieved a 5 day vacation and kept all perks on return (perks being in a lead position after quitting) all the while if i was late i text an hour to over an hour before my shift starts (at 6am) to let the managers know. (Key note: march 8th i talked to the GM and asked for this sunday march 15th off, to which i got verbal confirmation) now today, im not feeling very well and tried to call out (again using enough time before my shift) to which i was cornered in a way that made me feel uncomfortable enough to show up to talk to hr about this entire thing. To which i was told if it happens again im fired. Is it fair i am treated this way, when the other 3 cooks can do whatever they want and not get into trouble. (Mind you that the only other white person on this line is the operation manager, whos so scared of confrontation that he wouldnt swat a fly away if it landed on his nose) there are other huge details. (One being 1 of the cooks in question asked for $1 raise yesterday march 13th to which he was told he would be given a bigger raise than he asked for, even tho hes always late and has admitted to multiple no call no shows before my employment at this facility.) I dont know the other cooks private conversations, but they 100% didnt have any negative body language regardling any sort of discipline, (i worked as a chef in a hospital and had to take classes on subliminal hints towards sex trafficking and a class on overall body language so we could discretely notice hints towards abuse of any kind and properly inform the needed personnel)

Nonsense. If your boss lacks a basic moral constitution you need to get out from under that. You will not starve. You will not die. You will not be homeless. Just be brave and leave and you will survive somehow. All this fear mongering about dependency on horrible bosses for a living is the reason horrible bosses exist in the first place. Let someone else be their submissive slave and free yourself. Fear of leaving a terrible person is nothing more than illusion. Period.

Excellent explanation!!!!! PERIOD

I use to work in a lovely coffee shop, but then came a new manager and that nice place became not pleasant to work at anymore. That new manager was making rumors around, she was treating people in a different way. She didn't know how to manage a proper one on one meeting with employees that after they would feel motivated and encouraged. She was adding hours to some of her favorite people. I left this job cos I couldn't anymore to work there. Few months I couldn't work because of my psychological problems. When I was starting to work somewhere I was feeling that going to be the same and I dont want to go through it again. One of my colleagues went to a psychologist. This manager knew about it but she didn't do anything to improve her self or change smht. She became even worse. The manager was doing everything to read off my colleague which one went to a psychologist. So how do we need to deel with that kind of "managers" who are destroying others lives?

I don't hate my job. I LOVE cooking chicken at KFC but my new manager is forcing me into management cause she only makes messes for everyone and expects us to do everything. I don't want keys, won't clean the whole store, and will NEVER manage the new generation Z teens.
