Question:


Answers:
i have found over the years that while it it tough to control the behavior of others, it is possible to learn things that will help you to "control" your response to their behavior. there exist certain practices that help to minimize the effect on you of other peoples' dysfunctions. we are all different, but what worked for me was doing things that helped to keep me calm, balanced, and energized. i sort of built up a reserve of "tolerance" to bad behavior by others in that way. what happened around me no longer brought me down so much, or upset me. my approach was to exercise regularly and to do alot of meditation. in a short time i noticed a big difference. i didn't get as angry, and i didn't take their behavior so personally. also i studied a bit to find out why they did what the did. very eye opening. i would suggest that you read *the complete idiot's guide to toltec wisdom* for some tips on meditation, and on insight into the causes for human psychological dysfunction, and a lot more that's helpful. also check out www.sahajayoga.com to tune into energies that will absolutely help to keep you calm, etc. please look into these sources and you will experience great benefits. best of luck!

He won't care , but you may feel better.

Help what? You'll be out of a job, and if you left voluntarily you might not even qualify for unemployment benefits.

But if you have another job to go to, it might help you to get away from the boss you don't like.

It is unlikely that your boss will change. If you hope the higher ups will see that he has problems and will fire him, that might happen after a lot of people leave, but in my experience it is a slow process, and it is VERY unlikely that they'd call all the people who quit and invite them back. Not going to happen.

Look at the company you work for. IF there is a structure for talking with someone higher up to effect some changes, you might try that. But that can always backfire and you have to weigh the risks.

Finally if your corporation has something called and Employee Assistance Program, one or two of you might try to employ the confidential services of a counselor in that program to help you find strategies for dealing with you enotionally manipulative superior. NO BECAUSE A PERSON WHO IS MANIPULATIVE YOU CANT GIVE IN THE BEST THING TO DO IS NOT BE MANIPULATED AND STICK TOGETHER WHEN HE OR SHE FINDS OUT THAT THEY CANT WIN THEY WILL MOVE ON
