I have had my share of bad bosses and I may have one or two in the future, but life is too short to endure the agony of someone who should not have risen to the level of sufficient authority to make life miserable for others. I guess that question is like "How did Hitler get to power?". No matter where I have gone, people with their own head problems have become the master of someone else's professional or occupational fate and made life miserable for them. Why do corporations /companies raise up tormentors rather than mentors?
I think it is the duty of every good employee to resist these sick puppies and hold them to accountability, as best as they can, given the vulnerable position they find themselves in.
Easier said than done...
