We all have loved ones friends family whatever, and we know learn what their hot buttons are. Then when they go balistic on us a few dozen times we know what to avoid to lessen the ugliness of the future. I work for a woman who has about 35,000 different moods and just when you think you have done a good job..followed her convoluted directions to a T or done something so innocent that no one could object, she lowers the BOOM on you. So not only are you blindsided, but when you are filling out the emotional accident report, you dont even know how to fill in the
" Cause of Accident " line. What ensues is an environment where you are fearful of saying ANYTHING about ANYTHING around her, because who knows what direction the brick is comming from. It stifles creativity free and free thinking. Now anyone who knows me knows I have lots of ideas and like to share them..good or bad. I have taken that part of me and burried it for the time being. Innocent questions generate snarky defensive answers. Suggestions about improving things dont illicit a " Wow, that might work " response, but a " What was wrong with the way we were doing it " suspicious answer. So I go to work..do as I am told and shut the fuck up. It is so not who I am, but I need the money, and thats is the way it is. I am not changing my ways in general..just in the office.

Looks like the bitch is trying to perform a lobotomy on you. Just remember, you are there for the money, not the ambiance.
Just finally admit that this piece of shit was born miserable and will die miserable. It's just her dailywick. Be the better person.
