My boss verbally abuses all of the employees. I have an extemely thick skin, was warned about the environment, and still I am in shock on a daily basis. In a 'normal' job there would be major lawsuits but noone here seems to care much. You probably wouldn't believe half the stuff that goes on at our office.

Indulge us.

Besides the vintage condom dispenser and a "Penises of the Animal World" drawing in the mens room today our accountant/bookkeeper was called a stupid wise and beautiful woman.

Last week I was a "worthless moron lower than whale shit in a hole at the bottom of the ocean". I actually chuckled at that one.

Today I was told to get keys to the building in case I had to meet clients late or on weekends, when I asked how to get a set of keys, I was told not to "be a dumb motherfucker and just get a set of fucking keys". I didn't know how to reply and just said "I'll fucking get them and won't ever bother you again; fuck" and walked out.

Here is my first meeting with the boss. I was working in my office and he walked in.

Me: Hi Mr. Lxxxxxx, nice to finally meet you
Mr. L: Do you know what the fuck you are doing?
Me: Yes sir, but I am still not sure on certain office policies
Mr. L.: mutters a profanity, stares at me, and walks out.

He came back a few minutes later and tells me to get him a cup of coffee and meet him in his office. I have NEVER been asked to fetch anything, ever, and was dumbfounded, then I made the mistake of asking how he wanted it. He simply replied "in a cup idiot" and added "put some fucking cream in it" when I was walking away.

edit: these are some quick examples, there are others here that have it much worse. I think he actually likes me and wants me to be successful.

Wow. :laugh:

My boss actually reminds me of Tom Hanks in the movie Big. He has a play house with foosball, ping pong, pool table, and a large hdtv on a 3 story house he built on top of his garage.

Yeah, so what are you all doing now? Last thing I remember is the Dug777 stuff you did for that class. Still living above the bar?

I student teach weekdays from 7:30 until 3:30 or so, then I work, and that's about it.

Yep, still living above the bar.

thats not crazy, it gets the excess chalk off the tip and away from the felt.

Sometimes...

my boss picks his nose in regular conversations with people.

he insists on signing paychecks and refuses to get direct deposit.

he has no concept of organization and gets annoyed at me when i put files back in the filing cabinet where they belong.

he likes to interject very loudly when you're talking to him, even when he's only bringing up a tangent.

i'll explain something, and then he'll argue with me, making the same argument i just made.

i'll explain what the other side's argument is, and then argue with me, using the argument i already wrote.

i'll say i'm about to do something, and then he'll interject (loudly) that i should do exactly what i just said i would do.

he used to sexually harass the good looking women, but there haven't been any here for a while so he's stopped. i don't know if he was doing it consciously or not.
