bad supervisors/boss
hey,i just had to get home and make this thread and get it off my chest.some of the things ill say u might think is bull**** but it did/does happen at my place of employ.Anyway i work at a national marketing firm and am a marketing sales officer,i work under this woman who has been the company supervisor since company opened.Every day she makes it her mission to find something to bitch about to the head honcho.we have 40 employees and over half of them pay this woman on the side with cash so they can keep working(we have general packers)out the back.this and unreservadly kiss her ass,if ur not in this group then shell let you go the very first chance she gets-usually when weve finished a contract.for ten yrs she has abused slapped,shouted at,talked down at me and others to the point were some of us have actually thought of quitting and starting over but fk her! at our xmas dinners we usually go to a club for the night and they basically line up to put money into her machine for her to play,u dont and ur on her **** list,hence why im on it.the boss knows everything shes doing yet lets her stay because shes good at her job!! lots of the workers have worked here for over 4-5yrs and still havnt been offered a ft-perm position,hence she gets to keep her hold over them cause its harder to fire someone whos permnt.i thought ther was a law wer if u work fulltime for 12months u have to b offerd a perm position.is this true?sori for long post but shes making me homicidal!feel like going all columbine on her!!(joke) anyone else have a f'd up employer?share the pain with me.pleeeease!

Just quit, with Australia's employment the way it is you can find a job no worries at all.

Video her antics, and send them into Australias Funniest home video, because I know I was laughing my ass off with that stuff you just posted.

I'd be talking to a solicitor who specialises in this type of stuff, also try to find other employees that share your view (but be very discreet with this).
If you can threaten the company with legal action, and have a group of people behind you willing to tell all, then the big boss wont have any choice but to remove her.
You never know, maybe there is more than one person willing to turn on her, and then is going to find herself out on her ass.

You must be a pussy if you are still there and putting up with her crap. Just tell her to stick her job and find something else. I wouldn't even list that company on your resume unless you could back up the story with proof when your prospective employer wants to contact them.

my old boss was a pretty bad one,
i only got $7.57ph ( meant to be $10.85 )
i was meant to have a day off a week ( had 2 in the 1 1/2 years there )
i had my index and middle fingers trapped under a car for a few seconds, blood ****ing out he took one look and said they aint broken wait until the nerves calm down and start wheel aligning.
i wanna kick his ass one day
