I'm wondering whether to raise some issues I have with a boss at work.
It's a law firm and I work in a small office within a very large firm. I mostly work for one partner (who is universally recognised as difficult and bit of a tool, but I can just about manage without walking out) but have recently done a bit for another partner (who makes the former look like the best boss in the world).
He acts all chummy, knows **** all about the relevant law, and gives you a hard time about the most trivial things he can find – presumably to show his "authority". (He's also made trainees cry etc)
I am wondering if I can raise these issues in a tactful way, like: "You have raised various issues with my work that are in my view are trivial. This had made working with you an unhappy experience."
Hopefully there's not much he can do – if he continues or gets worse then I can escalate it. It may also occur to my boss that I may not take the seemingly infinite amount of crap he dishes out. However they are both very authoritarian (which is 180 degrees out of line with the firm's management policy).
WCS I suppose is they say "if you don't like it then leave"…which I will, the moment I get offered a decent job.
Any thoughts?
