Bad Boss Monday

Working America, which is an affiliate of the AFL-CIO, recently sponsored a bad boss contest. Some of the winners are described here. Its enough to make you appreciate your own superior's eccentricities, well, maybe not. Its not surprising that a labor affiliate would sponsor this contest. The number one reason employees seek out union representation - mistreatment by their boss. Not wages, not benefits, not even oppressive working conditions drive employees to a union as much as bad treatment by the boss.
