worst bosses

Are Capricorn Bosses Difficult to Work With

Capricorn bosses are often seen as strict and detail-oriented, which can feel like micromanagement. However, they are also highly responsible and goal-driven. Not all Capricorns create chaos or are unkind; their leadership style varies. Understanding their focus on results can help improve workplace relationships.

Capricorn. They micro manage. Their cheap and like to create chaos out of the simplest shit. I work in an office and have experienced both male and female capricorns in charge. Please prove me otherwise. Most generous bosses I've had have been aries and pisces.

I'm having some serious work issues with a Cap woman. She isn't my supervisor but is a higher position than me. She is the worst micro-manager I have ever dealt with! I'm thinking of putting in a formal complaint because she is listening to my conversations and then emailing me or butting in on my work when she over hears something she thinks she should comment on. Serious control issues.

Who would be the best boss? I don't know. My direct boss is a leo. She's on top of her shit but she does some things that are unprofessional (ex having an obvious favorite team member, not treating us equally, talking about another team member to one of the others) I would think a libra would be good, but I hear they aren't

I agree with you, nothing to do with tender and I know he does always care about himself, but working with him is better than others. I have liberty at work, like cancer mean family, he lets their children work if they trust them.

I think cancers can lead very well, cause it's all about the unit, they might have problems in helping others professionally though, because they hate losing staff.

I agree with this too. My boss had to let go some workers because of higher orders and it was a pain in the ass, he has all team sycronized to do all best. We were/are the best team in all company, most of because of him, because the way he leads.

Neverless, he always think of him first, he ascendend very high now, he is not my direct boss anymore (he is boss of almost everything now). But when higher questions come out our team comes alive again because he knows what we capable of, he simple will say the person he trusts will be in the project and he knows we will put it to work like a charm.

The pisces boss I had was nothing like a pisces. He was always on my back and didn't take any bullshit from lazy workers. I respected that. Aries boss was very disorganized but treated her staff well.

At first thought, I don't think virgos make the greatest bosses. Maybe If the company was extremely detailed orientated or the boss had a high pressence of aries in his/her chart. It seems many virgos work behond the scenes, own companies and pick out the most suitable person to be in charge. Or just good workers. The majority of bosses don't give a shit about details they want the work done fast = profit.

I had a Leo supervisor who was a micro-manager.
NEVER try to micro-manage a Cap!
I think I told him to fuck off once.

Now, myself, I always befriended my staff. Although I would smack them upside the head if need be (literally - wtf u doing? *smack*). They wuved me though. They always knew they could come to me no matter what and I would support them or tell it to them straight.

Don't think I could handle Libra bosses. My experience in other parts of my life is that they will deny responsibility for trouble even when confronted with hard evidence.

And nobody likes a micro-manager but you have those in all signs.

Ha! Funny this is started by a Virgo. There are TWO over me and boy do they get on my nerves. One of them is okay, and seems to click with me a bit more than the other. That other Virgo, idk. Sneaky and I think she sets me up to fail at work.

Very controlling women. Its a different kind of control..they use humor, but yet are FIRM and you may think they are not paying attention to everything but they are.

I remember coworkers trying to figure out why it's so tense at work. Its them.

I don't care what sign you are just tell me what you want and leave me alone to do it. If I have to endure you being a troll all day long about my job, you better be paying hella good money to put up with your annoying ass all day long. If not I'm out. I can find plenty other jobs for a clean cut white dude with no criminal record who does what he's told to do.

^ agreed. i have learned that no matter who is my boss i hate to be told what to do and be micromanaged. With that said, i have a slight problem with authority lol.
If I can respect you as a boss and know that you are being fair, that is all i ask for.

Worst boss I had/have: Cancer (female). Best boss I had was also a Cancer (male). Female is a micro-manager. The male just told it like it was--no matter who it was (even me one time and I was his second in charge). I liked him because he was honest.

I agree about Virgo females in charge; very fake and act like they give a shit about you but really don't. The fakeness is so very apparent--who do they think they're fooling?

I hate to to say this, but they were all women and Aries...totally cold and unaware of how they were treating their staff.

One of them brought a tough Saggi woman to her knees..she crumbled like a sandcastle 😢..she tried the same treatment with me, but i didn't let her get the better of me...i left the job and then threatened her with legal action..apparently she backed down after that

Lol...how convenient
