This boss claimed to be "old school," but in reality, he was just creating a toxic work environment. You'll probably encounter toxic bosses at some point in your career. You'd think to be a manager, you'd have to prove your communication skills are on point. But no. Instead, this boss manages to make every conversation and task as arduous as possible.
Knowing what to prioritise at your job is a crucial aspect of it. As they say, you can juggle many balIs at once, but you have to know which ones are plastic and which are glass. As much as your boss would love for you to get through 15 hours of work in an 8 hour day, it's just not possible. That won't stop a manager from pushing their employees to their limits, like this boss did.
U/Matsuri3-0 shared a story from a job they'd just left after realizing how toxic their former boss was.

However, this dude didn't go out lightly. Instead, they insisted on an exit interview, where they completely let loose!
