When I am going to start looking for a new job, along with my criteria of higher pay, and big city location, I don't want to work for rude people. The people I work with right now (my superiors and my boss), are some of the rudest people I have ever known; impatient, childish, irrational, in your face, and demanding. Yes I know, demanding people are the ones who survive in this cut throat corporate enviornment, but this demanding behaviour is plain rude and hostile.
Right now I work in IT, as a tech support/junior system admin. A lot of my work involves going to cubicles and fixing problems. Most of the non supervisor level employees are fine, but it's the damn supervisor level people who are rude. My boss is down right impatient, a quality least desired in a system administrator. Not to mention the lack of people skills. You should see the kind of total sh!t answers he gives me.
ME: Well I checked out her computer, everything seems fine on it. Rebooted it twice. She still can't acces the network share.
Boss: Well she probably has a virus
Other people, like the HR lady and the accounting b!tch are senile and nuts. The accounting b!tch is known as the rudest person at work. Always shouting, even at her boss. Can't stand the slightest error on her computer.
Ok so back to my question. Next job I look for, it will either be development or QA. IT is fine too, as long as I don't have much user interaction. So during an interview, how can I size up the company, and determine if I will be working for rude people or not?
I used to read in Forbes, Wired, and what not, that how working for small companies was the way to go. Well this small company I work for is just totally not what I read about. This is more like a sweat shop.
