Sticky Work Situtation
I hate my boss. Like really hate him. He talks down to everyone, hands off all his work, and is just a jerk. Anyhow, last night he stepped over the line in my opinion. He was being a jerk about something and someone called him Hitler. He thought this was really funny and then proceeded to put a piece of black paper over his lip and walk around the office telling people to work harder and to stay late. He thought this was insanely funny.
I must have looked horrified because he came into my office this morning to apologize but I still feel like this really stepped over the line. What would you do in this situation?
Re: Sticky Work Situtation
I don't know if I would turn him in yet, but I would start a journal and document every inappropriate action in the work place. Start with yesterday and write down everything: time, date, incident summary, people who were there.
If something happens from this or another incident, you would be able to show documentation of every offense.
Could you attempt to talk to him?
Let him know that what he did bothered you, and you find that he was not acting in a professional manner? Boss or no boss, he's just a human (I'm not sure what his experience level is).
I also like the above post, in regards to keeping a log.
I actually already have a log of things because this is not the first time he has offended me. This was just the first time that I think HE realized it was wrong.
I would talk to him except he is very defensive and hates confrontation. I have tried to talk to him before about things and he yells and walks out of the room.
And just for a little background, the man is in his 50's, spent most of his life in the army and claims to have been "born to be a manager". Oh yeah, did I mention I work at a college and he is also a sociology instructor?
