For three years i have been my own boss, and now i need to get used to a new management. My boss is often verbally abusive, and because of this i constantly get stressed out. Has anyone dealt with the same situation. I would prefer to tell him politely to stop , but i am not sure if i am entitled to tell him to do anything...


Anyone else have it as bad as I do?
doh confused

Sorry, it sounds like i am writing to the agony aunt column in the newspaper, but the situation is so frustrating that i literally lost my sleep because of this and became a very active forum user frustrated

i dont know if that will help you, but:

Record his verbal outbrakes, mabye your mobile phone has a record function....... than, when he is in a calmer mood, play it to him.....

some people dont realise how bad there behaviour is and need to see/hear it first

If that fails or you cant do it.. Why dont you turn arround after one of his outbrakes and say to him
" Any chance you say it again but like an Adult?"

I'm lucky to have a very nice boss, he's been great to me in the 5 years I've worked for him.

I have, however, in the past, had a particular boss who was a complete bully and I ended up leaving rather than putting up with her. Life's too short to be that unhappy.

Thanks a lot for the answers. I tried some autotraining to cope with the situation and finally today told him that when i hear shouting and so on i usually get a headache afterwards...

He answered he is not a bad man, but it happens sometimes that he can not express himself in a form different from shouting. LOL

cheers

))) Yes, life is strange
