They say there’s no ‘I’ in ‘team’. But some people are selfish, shortsighted, and seem keen to ruin everyone’s day for their own pleasure or gain. Naturally, we call these people jerks. While unpleasant to deal with, your average, run-of-the-mill jerk isn’t usually someone to fear. Not so if they’re your boss.

Good bosses are a godsend, but bad bosses make you pray for divine intervention. Even worse than merely incompetent managers are bosses who love being jerks. Jerk bosses are by far the crème de la crème of all possible types of the species known as jerks.

Bored Panda made this list of the greatest examples of bosses acting like jerks, so you can feel a bit happier about working at your current job, in comparison. So go make yourself some popcorn, grab yourself a drink, and scroll down. Upvote your fave jerk boss stories and let us know if something similar has ever happened to you! Be sure to take a look at Bored Panda’s other stories about jerk bosses, regular everyday jerks, and the vast differences between leaders and bosses.

JDMRexTI Report

Your mom probably told you to stay away from jerks when you were a kid. However, when we’re all grown up, we can’t always choose our colleagues (and especially not our bosses), as we choose our friends. I’m sure that at one point or another we’ve all met jerks that made us grit our teeth, put on a fake smile and pretend like everything’s just peachy. When all we really wanted to do was Sparta Kick them into a volcano as a sacrifice to the venerable Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Good for you. Although having this kind of conversation via text messages seems a bit childish and unprofessional.

Ohio State University researcher Bennett Tepper explained to the Harvard Business Review that “if your boss is hostile toward you, you are going to be less satisfied with your job, less committed to the work. You are more likely to experience psychological distress. We know that performance suffers; we know that people are less helpful when their boss is hostile toward them.” So far, so good.

“I have found no upside whatsoever to a boss being hostile, even though there is a lay belief out there that if you kind of kick people a little bit, maybe you can get them motivated. We never seem to find evidence of that,” Tepper revealed how aggressive behavior isn’t too great for inspiring folks to work harder.

Tepper and his colleagues checked whether acting aggressively right back at a hostile boss would yield any positive results. Are you ready for the shocking news? No, acting like a jerk to your jerk boss doesn’t create anything of value for you, nor for anyone else. The old adage that two wrongs don’t make a right is absolutely correct. Only, in this case, two jerks don’t make a warm and supportive work environment.

Far from everyone has the luxury of quitting their jobs at the drop of a hat. That means that for quite a number of different possible reasons, some people are stuck working for bosses they otherwise wouldn’t touch with a 10-foot pole. What can you do to survive if you’re in such a situation? Sometimes, a change in perspective can help. Thrive Global proposes learning all you can from your boss, doing the best work you can, and taking responsibility for your own happiness.

Meanwhile, the BBC suggests you meditate at the office every day and watch the stress go away. And if you’re feeling overwhelmed with life, take a few deep breaths, go for a walk, cuddle a doggo, and remember all the wonderful things in life you’re grateful for. Keep calm and carry on, my friends!

That's tourmaline, not a diamond. Though green diamonds do exist they never have a sold green color. The green appears as splotches of pale green in a clear or yellow diamond. Tourmaline is a semi-precious stone worth at most $200-300/ct. A green diamond would be about $5,000ct.

I've worked in many places and did a year with a professional jeweller. That's a fake ring. The Diamond setting in mount in the middle green is too light and the sparkle is too high for a diamond making it a highly polished cubic zirconia along with the halo. The rest of the ring is dull making it sterling silver so my guess is this ring would cost around £40-£50 in the UK

Well, that's just stupid on his part. Even if it's a real diamond and can't be hurt by stuff the band is NOT bullet proof. A friend of mine who is a potter realized just in time that the platinum band of her sapphire ring was being worn to a thread by throwing pots. She had to pay a lot of money to get the band fixed- and wore it on a chain around her neck when she was working.

I used to work at McDonald's and thankfully worked in a good store. But one shift I was asked to go to another store to help out - I was shocked at how bad it was and informed my manager. I told her I'd never be working at that store again unless something was done. It was a new store but they 'promoted' staff from our store to go look after it but clearly the task was too much for them. I told my friends and family not to eat there.

So you fill in all the details with the boss's name ( Especially the "Girly man who files this report) and hand it back.

We don’t know the situation, the boss could be sick, have a sick child etc. Either way the boss doesn’t have to let the employees know why they aren’t there and it’s their prerogative to work from home. The boss was kind enough telling others to be careful and to take their time. They weren’t being a jerk at all.

Well, you probably shouldn't tell everyone you are going to Burning Man when you take that vacation. "I'm going to California" would probably suffice and not instigate a "random" test.

To be fair, maybe the training room is too small to adequately demonstrate cpr on the dummy.

It's definitely weird (who staples money? Just use an envelope or paperclip..), but not a huge issue.
