<p>^is that normal to feel miserable at times?</p>
<p>Hah, I’m the opposite, kind of. I don’t hate my job necessarily, but I’m pretty apathetic towards it. My boss is what has kept me at it for as long as I have. (I even transferred to a store substantially further away just to keep him as my manager)</p>
<p>i don care whether he praises me or not when I do a good job, what I’m find annoying is the fact that he likes to make a big fuss out of every small mistake I make, scolding me loudly in front of tons of people… is this normal?</p>
<p>I got lucky; love both of my jobs and the people I work for. Love going to work every day.</p>
<p>i loved my job and HATED my boss, who would publicly humiliate, cuss, and degrade me. yeah i’m not hte type to bite my tongue either when that **** happens. i got fired.</p>
<p>Normal, unfortunately. ex.: My job is okay. I like my co-workers. My boss is tolerable, mostly. But he does yell at me for mistakes he thinks I makes (even though I do everything right) because I work “too fast” for him to understand. Grr. Drives me slightly nuts…I am too impatient to handle his crap sometimes, especially when he yells at me in front of customers and scrutinizes everything I am doing. After I explain what I am doing, and show him that everything is correct, then he’s like, well, “don’t do that” anyways, or do it “slower” because he doesn’t want me to make any mistakes. Well I DIDN’T MAKE ANY MISTAKES!!! What I do at work is all based off of 2 things; accuracy and efficiency. Guess what…I can do the two things at the same time. Just because my boss is too slow to process what I am doing, doesn’t mean that I should make the customers wait much longer than they have to for me to finish my job. Just because I am only working this job to make money - and my boss is working this job as a pathetic career…doesn’t mean I should have to put up with it. -end rant</p>
