36: Vindictive Boss | Management Tips

Having a vindictive boss is never a “good thing”. Having a boss that goes out of their way to destroy your personal belongings takes crazy to a whole new level. That’s what we talk about today on Office Horror Stories.

Here’s a preview of the office horror story we will be talking about:

“Adrian is THE most awful boss EVER. Adrian is a huge bully for no good reason. Vincent is a sweet guy in his 50’s who still lives at home with his mom. And Adrian thinks of himself as some sort of Messiah. Here goes! It’s the end of the day and work is almost over; everyone is getting ready to leave and Vincent hangs his lab coat up ready for the next day. Adrian likes to do A LOT of overtime; I’m talking working from 4am-5pm when our contracted hours are 8am-5pm. So, this means, Adrian comes in much much earlier than Vincent. On this day, Vincent arrives at work and goes into the workshop, he knows he has a messy job to do that day, so he goes to get his lab coat, but his lab coat isn’t there. He turned around and Adrian is smirking at him. Adrian shrugged at Vincent as if he didn’t know what happened to the lab coat. Vincent started to walk around the machines and see’s that his lab coat is floating in the tank of oil they have in the corner of the room. That’s right, oil. Vincent simply said nothing because he knows that Adrian loves getting a rise out of him, so he lets it go and asks the superiors to order a new lab coat. A few months go by, it’s seemingly just another day at work with Adrian bossing Vincent around and telling him how useless he is. It gets to the end of the day. Vincent doesn’t like to wear his work boots in his car because of the oil they work with, so he keeps a pair of sneakers in a locker, but today, he notices the keys to his locker are already in the keyhole.”
