The Worst Boss You’ll Ever Work For.

(And why escaping them is the best career move you’ll ever make)

You know the one.
Swagger like a TED Talk. Ego like a Bond villain. Competence of a wheelie bin on fire.

They parade around the office like they’ve solved leadership, when really they’ve just mastered the art of blaming other people. Every meeting’s a monologue. Every disaster? Someone else’s fault. And the team? Just background extras in their one-man show.

Welcome to The Boss Who’s Never Wrong.
A living masterclass in how not to lead.

• Makes decisions based on vibes and vengeance

• Mistakes fear for respect

• Thinks “strategy” means guessing loudly and blaming others when it backfires

Their greatest hits include:

• “We need bold thinking!” (translation: ignore all logic)

• “We’re like a family!” (except you’ll get ghosted, gaslit, and guilt-tripped)

• “Let’s be solutions-focused!” (unless the solution involves them doing better)

The result? A workplace held hostage by one person’s delusion.

Good people leave. Great people break. What’s left is a culture of silence, second-guessing, and survival mode.

If this sounds familiar, here’s the truth:

You’re not too sensitive.
You’re not imagining it.
And no, you can’t fix them.

These people don’t want feedback. They want loyalty. Obedience. A round of applause for doing the bare minimum while making everything worse.

So what do you do?
You run.
You say thanks for the trauma, and you leave.
Because life’s too short to be micromanaged by a human PowerPoint slide with delusions of grandeur.

And once you’re out? You’ll start to notice something.

You’re not lazy. You were exhausted.
You’re not difficult. You were trying to do the right thing.
You’re not broken. You were bending to fit inside a box that should never have existed.

Real leaders make you braver. Not smaller.

So if your boss is a walking red flag in business-casual? Trust yourself. Pack up your talent. And don’t look back.
