  >Were you working for a sadist? Even if this was exaggerated a little bit, this isn't far from what I've experienced too. There's corroborated stories that he was much worse before I knew him. While I worked him, he was actively banned from all adult hockey leagues in the city due to violence. Generally speaking leagues dont allow checking or fighting at all because at the end of the day older dudes need to go back to work on monday. So he created his own league which explicitly allowed checking and violence. It was tremendously popular the first season for the first few games and then by the second season nobody was going anymore and they couldn't build 2 teams. >To be honest, I just look at the people in the management roles nowadays and if they give me "command and control" vibes, I'm out. I know better now. I didnt back then. >Sounds like you worked for a small business and didn't know your own worth. You had the leverage the whole time. Its crazy. When I was in that situation the burnout was just so punishing. You feel helpless and incapable. Everything is backwards and upside down. My phone would ring and I would feel that was it... i was about to be fired. If I wasn't being fired... I was about to chewed out for something I didn't do.
