importance of finishing work and that it is submitted on time. Most times after work such bosses

show their lighter side. Their lighter side shows employees that after work hours they know how

to enjoy themselves. They interact with employees by going to the local bar, grabbing a bite or

even going clubbing. Work first boss takes measures to show their fun sides.Employess find such

bosses easy to work with and likeable as long as they are professional in the work place. Bosses

connect on a more personal basis with employees. Employee are likely to refer to them by their

first name instead of their titles instead or Mr. or Mrs. Although most people wish to have such

an employee there are some that prefer slightly strict bosses.

The feared type of boss is the aggressive one. This type of boss has gotten a position that they

really do not deserve or know how to handle and the employees are aware. Most times they are

young and overly confident. Employees find such a boss difficult to deal with since they are so

self-absorbed. As for work ethic, employees get little or no recognition for their performance or

exceptional skills. With this type of manager the work environment feels dull and

unappreciative. The rules set by such a boss are usually unnecessary or vague and are quick to

throw a fit when things do not go their way. When it comes to making business moves they

enjoy taking risks without considering the effect it will have on employees. With this type of

boss you need to be careful because you do not know when you might get embarrasses or even

fired.

in the best way. An employee may need to evaluate the motives of the boss because there are

those who have no qualms about humiliating employees. In such work environment it is common

to find employees resigning to go look for a conducive work environment.
