Ive had more than my fair share of bosses from hell, both in the public and private sectors, so I always get a kick out of articles that address the problem (like the ones that say you bring this on yourself by sub-consciously agreeing with their style of management and that draws you to them.) Heres a new one from The Onion that addresses the matter (The Onion is known to use certain American colloquial often found among the masses - just hold your ears while reading this:) Calling his unique, minimalist approach to destroying their self-esteem “impressive,” employees said their boss is just as adept at insulting a single worker with a few well-placed sarcastic remarks as he is at humiliating his entire staff at once. “He’s got this really light touch about it,” said mortgage underwriter Kevin McElroy, 29, who praised his manager’s delicate, finely honed talent for demeaning others. “Carl never lays it on thick, but somehow he always says the exact thing he needs to say to make you feel completely worthless.” theonion/articles/boss-has-deft-touch-for-making-employees-feel-like,32084/?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=Pic:NA:InFocus
