Niccolo Machiavelli ( 1469 - 1527 ) a famous Italian Historian once ask a question : " Which is better for a King ? To be loved or to be feared ? "
Somehow I feel bossess these days should ask the same question to themselves. It is still a valid question to search an answer to. I happen to know 2 types of bossess, one who happen to 'wanna be loved by ALL' and another who 'wanna be feared by ALL'. As I am attentively reading the history of one most notorious monarchy of England, The Tudors, I can't help but relate one of those bossess to Kind Henry VIII and the other happens to have a similarity to Cardinal Wolsey who was King Henry's chancellor.
I have then made a decision to move on with my life and stay far far away from these 2 bossess. It was indeed a nightmare. Especially when you come close to someone who reminds you of Cardinal Wolsey ! ( Someone who wants power, manipulative, sneaky and cunning <-- to name some of his/her traits ) or shall I say 'skills' instead.
I don't think I have actually stumble upon a boss quite like this one ( in my 11 years of working experience ). And though people say ' do not burn the bridge ' when you move on, I set the bridge on fire and hope it burns to ashes !
I'll tell you why in my next posts.....
