[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When a boss feels threatened by those working for her and, consequently, puts them down, yells at them, bullies them.[/quote]

We have a boss that I think feels threatened, but she just presents a Miss Down-Home Texas/Innocent/Nice persona, while hoarding information and taking credit for others' ideas and accomplishments. She also promoted a bumbling, idiotic, brown-noser to be her deputy so that she continues to retain control and look good by comparison. Anyone who is an actual threat can not be promoted or paid more because then the top level will surely see how incompetent she and her deputy are.

So I close my door and try to avoid them like the plague. I am trying to cultivate a DGAF attitude. I'm just there to make money and devote my time and attention to my family.

And definitely the resistance to change is a sign of the toxic workplace. No other ideas can be presented or implemented because if it worked 20 years ago, it will definitely still work.[/quote]
