I have had two severely toxic bosses in my lifetime, and it is difficult to do anything because I kept second-guessing myself that it was my fault. It took away my self-confidence for years, and led to unsuccessful interviews, which compounds into more self-doubt.
- shortandsweet 6y agoCurious, what were the behaviors?
- adamredwoods 6y agoExtreme control, including weekend work. Verbal insults, derogatory, lots of profanity. Verbal reminders of power: one would hover over me saying "Why are you even here?" while watching me work, then tell me to leave. I would then get called back the next day to work on something else. It was erratic. Classic case of power and control: you leave when I tell you, you come back when I tell you.
