How Bad is Your Boss?

I was watching Venture on CBC last night, and they were doing an expose on Bad Bosses.  This is a list/questionnaire of the 7 Deadly Boss Sins:

1.  Does your boss embarrass you in public or criticize you infront of others?

2.  Does your boss have a tough time making or sticking to decisions s/he has made?

3.  Does your boss take you for granted?

4.  Does your boss hog the limelight when things go well and/or blame you when things go wrong?

5.  Does your boss argue about everything?

6.  Is your boss unclear about what s/he expects of you?

7.  Does your boss pile on the work or have an unrealistic expectation of the workload s/he dumps on you?


If you answered "yes" to

1-2 of the above 7 questions:  your boss may stress you out at times, but they're normal

3-6 of the above 7 questions:  you have a Bad Boss - confront them (carefully) and/or consider quitting

all 7 of the above 7 questions:    Boss From Hell - run the fuck away!
