Don't Hate Your Boss - It's Not His Fault!
Did I choose him or did he choose me?"What"s not his fault?" you might ask. The fact that I work for him is not his fault. The fact that I have put myself in a position to be in this job is not his fault. The fact that I found myself in the position of having to deal with this particular boss was my fault. It was my fault because I didn"t take the action or the control or the initiative, not to work for him. Sure maybe after a few years of griping and complaining I took another job somewhere and got away from him. But why did I end up there in the first place? Why did I have to spend any time at all working for a boss that was an idiot?
Be in Control: Avoid Bad Bosses
Many times we end up working for a boss that we hate because we didn"t take control of our career to begin with. We, either by choice or lack of making a choice, let our jobs pull us along instead of us driving it. When we let our career or job take us where it wants to go instead of us taking our career where we want to go, we risk getting stuck in bad situations and working for bad bosses.
Grab the Wheel and Drive This Thing
To get out of a bad boss situation you need to take control of your career. Where do you want to work? What kind of company do you want to work for? What kind of boss do you want to have? When you take control of your career, you will be able to say good-bye to bosses you hate.
