Working everyday with someone who has seething jealousy & hatred for you isn’t good for you or the company. These are the women that were missed by Dr. Phil, Oprah and a good therapist. Some are even Mean Moms & the Bully Moms who somehow hid their emotions and went through their own hell & are now spitting it back out on us, their families and the rest of the world.

Now that I’m the boss, I have no employees now. But I realize at some point, I will have to hire someone. That makes me very nervous. But I’ve also taken notes on bosses I liked in the past & present and bosses I’d like to work for . . . not against, if I decide to go back into the workforce.

In the end you have to ask yourself, what would you be? Leader or Manager?

A good manager belongs behind a computer in the IT department number crunching, A good leader should organise the nights out. Personally Ive seen far more pure managers than id ever like to have known, but dont forget the other toxic manager, the pure leader. You might have known this manager too, he wants to be your friendand have fun, but rarely does any work actually get done and the company went bust, at least you had fun getting there, right?

I'm just fortunate to find another boss. This is a unique post on managearial and even political scenarios out there. What do you think about the toxicity of PGMA? Nice work, kabayan.

I agree not all bosses are cut out to be bosses and they all have the same needs as we do as they are only above some just on job status. Some workers are enough to drive some bosses insane and vise versa.Great topic and very enjoyable read as always! A great article Gift,very well written and very true!
