The Worst Boss Is…
This year’s Bad Boss contest exposed many horrible bosses. More than 700 horrible bosses, actually. Ranging from hilarious to heartbreaking to just plain horrifying, they showed us just how bad bosses can be. Now, after thousands of votes, we’ve got our three winners.
Bad Barista garnered the most votes to win the People’s Choice Grand Prize with the story “Boss with No Heart.”
My boss called me several times, threatening to fire me because I was unable to do my job. She continued to keep calling me, specifically harassing me about how my health problems were causing scheduling problems for the business, until my mother picked up my phone in the ER and told her to leave me alone. (She didn’t.)
Traumatized Tracy’s story “Please Put Your Granny Panties Away!” won the Most Shared Online Grand Prize after having the most shared story on Facebook.
Is there a polite, professional way to ask your boss to put away her undies? This is the question I have been asking myself for the past six months…
“No Chairs for You!” by DownloadMe , was a standout in the eyes of the Working America staff, and took the Staff Pick Grand Prize.
The second month we doubled sales to $150K, but “it wasn’t enough”…so to “teach us a lesson” our boss took away all of our chairs…FOREVER!!!
Each of these deserving winners will get a much-needed vacation from their bad bosses, thanks to Union Plus. But while they’re the only ones who get a free vacation, if you’re a Working America member you could get a discount at any of the places our winners may be visiting. That’s because all Working America members are eligible for a wide range of Union Plus discounts and benefits, including vacation discounts.
Whether you submitted a story, voted or shared a story on Facebook, thanks for your participation in the Bad Boss contest.
