I have a boss who started out as a receptionist. She was a great boss at first. After a while her inexperience started to show, to me and others. She is constantly getting me to do her work and fill in for her. She comes late, leaves ealry. She has set different dress standards then the rest of the departments. They get to wear jeans and polos, we have to wear more buisness casual attire. She makes you feel like an idiot if you ask her a question , she rolls her eyes and says <"use common sense!" I;m like it's new..commen sense won't work here!" I don't say that of ocurse. I try to be cordial. I can't tell HR who happens to be the wifes OWNER and they are also good friends. I know for a fact the HR would tell her everything I would say.Hr came out one day complaining about another employee and said they were "bitching for no reason" and then told what they were griping about and who said it. Those 2 peopl are my only issues. My boss will tell me to do one thing, Ill do it then she'll say she never said to do it that way. SO, I started to email her asking her, "Is this what you said, I just want to verify"that way I'd have it on record. She won't reply to me then she writes me up for not replying to her. I show her where I replied to her on an email and then seh says oh, I didn't see that.
How do you deal with this if you actually like your job that you do just have VERY difficult people who have big egos and are ALWAYS try to make you look stupid.
