Have you ever had a yeller as a boss? I can't say that it's abusive, it's just like he'll call my name out loudly from the other room and then proceed to start asking me things but before I get in the room so everyone can hear. And then if he's annoyed he'll say "That's not xyz" in same tone of voice and everyone can hear. Normal problem?

Yes, I have. He would yell from his chair to me outside of his office. I eventually when in and said. I need to ask a favor, if you need me, call me into your office. I feel very disrespected when you shout you instructions through the glass. He had no idea I felt that way and he corrected himself. Sometimes he would slip up and I would just look at him through the glass he would immediately apologize. He eventually became one of my best friends. Good Luck!

If you guys use any online messaging platforms you can say them to call you via messaging app such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, Whatsapp... If you feel disrespected tell them that. Nobody goes to work to be abused if you feel that way. In front of the law its your right to get respect.

Yep… from down a 20 foot hallway. I would calmly go to his office & politely ask “You bellowed?” 🤨

After about the 3rd time of doing that (in front of others, of course), he stopped. 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

I just left a very toxic work place.
The crazy thing is they were just named the best local municipality to work for. It's upsetting. They advertise a "culture" but don'tapply it. It felt like a used car sales pitch, I was sold a dream but given junk. I am constantly replaying moments. I have read so many books and everything leads to they were the problem. How do I recover from this?
